I believe that since markets are running hot on just headlines of a possibility of a deal that once a deal is done the markets will sell off ..I believe also that this headline released moments ago that it means trump will NOT be raising tariffs on sunday morning!!!!!
I suspect neither Trump nor Xi really want a deal at this time. Manipulating markets and sentiment are too valuable to conclude the "deal is close" thingy... rather better to keep everybody on a string until the 2020 election, is my guess.
it's not too late to jump in... we are going MUCH higher... actually once you buy something, all this hating and hoping for a top will go away.
Trumpet was elected in 2016, came into office in Jan. 2017; things did not get jumpy until Eric and Don Jr. left the White House/headlines in early 2018. That is no accident. TrumPidiot made his money in the 90s not with real estate -- when "The Art Of The Deal" was published, he was losing hundreds of $millions from his so-called "Empire." Where did the cash come from? Agent Orange practiced the fine art of Pump&Dump, including some household names, til he was formally sanctioned. The apple(s) have not fallen far from the tree -- except now, the Pump&Dump is the entire American financial market. The market's reaction function will catch up, eventually -- but til then, we're all just one tweet away from them harvesting another swath of American wealth through manipulation.
I agree there is too much manipulation for the markets without a deal and having the markets at their every headline is where they want them. They can control the entire market like a puppeteer.
Took the thought out of my head at the open today. There have been too many times when a market leap has coincided to distract from bad news for someone. Easy money of course but it very much feels manipulated.
If it's that simple - just trade along with the orange man... it seems to be working for those who are less anxious than you appear to be.
These permabears and ET trolls will be chasing the stockmarket as it rockets higher. It is called FOMO and human nature called greed. That is after they lose their shirts first.
