Our call of the day, from Tim Duy, an economics professor at the University of Oregon, warns that stocks may run into trouble if we see troops on the streets of America.
“The best-case scenario is that the riots soon revert to continuous, massive, but peaceful protests. The worse-case scenario is that President Donald Trump acts on his threat to use military force to end the riots,†writes Duy in his influential Fed Watch blog.
“Aside from the obvious additional damage to the nation’s social fabric, widespread use of military force domestically would I suspect inflame the situation further, worsen consumer activity, and slow the progress of recovery,†he says.

Some truth to the economist observation, but we as conservatives have to ask.... Do we allow the likes of Antifa/BLM to hold our economy hostage? Appeasment will only result in repeat. Rewarding bad behavior begets more bad behavior. We are close to day of reckoning, and I for one am willing accept a little more pain, if we can squish these bugs once and for all.
