@coldjoint,
Quote:It is the raise in interest rates.
That's bullshit. And you know it — or you would if you stopped hanging on every lie and sorry excuse the petulant infant utters. A moderately strong economy can handle fractional rate increases spread out over a year. What markets don't like is uncertainty. And poor leadership promotes uncertainty. Trump's behavior is erratic and embarrassing, his government is thinly staffed, there are potential crises facing other major economies, and the unnecessary and poorly conceived trade wars have led to a lack of trust between the US and its allies and major trade partners. Trump owns the shutdown and he's going to own the Trump Slump if he doesn't admit that he's in over his head, find some experienced advisors,
and listen to them.
