Top Trump official calls banks amid market rout

Well he did say "we'd get tired from all the winning".

 

He never said who "We" was.

 

Looks like Munchin was in a hurry. Misspells the name of the Commodity Future Trading Commission.

 

This sends a very scary signal to the market. On one hand they claim the economy is strong and now they are asking the plunge protection team to hold up the market? Something is up and its more than quarter point rate hike although that certainly didnt help.

 

Things fell apart after the Dems took the House.

 

They may have "won the house", but they do not actually control it until 2019, yes?

 

Markets are forward looking

 

Markets started selling off in October. Further according to the conservative press it wasn’t a blue wave. The Democrats did worse than they should have. So perhaps markets are upset the dems didn’t win more?
