@Applewood - feel better yet?
For now. The market has been better since the alleged "deal" between the US and China. But I have zero confidence in any deals. These things are tenuous at best. And I've learned from Trump's temper tantrum trade wars that Trump has more often than not caused more damage to the market than he "helped." At any time he decides to rattle the sabre, those market gains can be wiped out.
And Gateway Pundit, as usual, exaggerates. Yes, there have been a few days of big gains and some records set, but many days, the gains are tiny. Not really an "explosion."
One last thing -- Trump is often given, and likes to take credit for whatever improvements in the economy have occurred since his election. I tend to think that whatever improvement there has been was the result of business' collective sigh of relief that Obama's reign of terror was over, not so much what Trump has done directly. There are still some aspects of the economy that are shaky and if Trump sneezes, the economy could go south in the blink of an eye.
