In re wars, there is the advice of Nathan Rothschilds to “buy on the sound of the cannons and sell on the sound of the bugles.”
When wars end well, it has proven enormously difficult to overcome elimination of the stimulus effect of spending for war. When they end badly, it is worse.
There are “FRED” charts that track post WW II recessions. Until Ike began constructing the interstate highway system, we suffered repeated recessions. Much the same occurred after we wound down the Vietnam War.
Yes, the U.S. private sector has grown something like $160 trillion in “value” since the 2007-9 crisis, except for drops of roughly $60 trillion attributable to blunders between after 2016.
We are still up about $100 trillion, by the rather amazing capacity of free enterprise to adjust.
So, “TINA” prevails despite our collective stupidity.
Short term upheaval vs long term change? What is the economic impact of 2 years of 1.5% inflation increase on long term stock prices 🤷♂️. And…US deficit increases of over $1 trillion? What’s a normal retail investor to do?
It could be and, then maybe it might not be.Trump is the master of "Chaos" and, that is how he runs our government. If the markets with this AI think they can beat it then more power to them.Fred is a genius . How old is Fred. I am 79 going on to 80 . He is so tune end.

Hope for higher tariffs, that will solve everything!
🤣
So we’re screwed.
