I know the stock market.

The things mentioned in that article would cause a complete collapse of the market and the loss of trillions of dollars world wide.

Companies would go out of business and people would starve.

That article is naive and completely out of touch.

Trump makes incremental changes. But he negotiates by starting with an outrageous position, which over time (usually a couple of days or a week) softens into a deal.

I know this narrative.

I spent my career in this narrative.

The Fed will still be there in 8 years and Trump will retire as our greatest President.

And, hopefully, many Lefties will be arrested for their crimes which were BTW encouraged by Obama.

And the Trump strategy has always been let Trump be Trump. Let him be the name the star the focal point and he will create fuss and bother to beat the band. Meanwhile behind the scenes his people eat away at the power structure.

You could well be right.

However, in our humble opinions, a crisis of any cause is usually an opportune time for major overhaul of all significant structures, dynamics, policies etc. because once things settle down from a partial upset, they can be a LOT harder to continue a house-cleaning with.

Certainly it is logical to think that he's bitten off more than is doable ... on the other hand, partial solutions are not likely to be stable or thorough enough to do much lasting good.

We are ignorant economically ...

However, we do know something about group dynamics and social forces etc.

It is likely plausible that there are a half a dozen ways to skin those cats. It's highly unlikely to be either/or one or 2 things.

We have no doubts that POTUS Trump is putting his own high powered brain into overdrive as well as the brilliance of a lot of advisors. And, we are praying Holy Spirit leads him with wisdom, creativity and supernatural brilliance in all matters he is working on.

BTW, isn't it highly likely that ... given the great likelihood of a super drop in the stock market--and just as likely a renewed rapid rise--THAT THAT sequence is a great opportunity for making a lot of money???
