Discussion: Stocks Surge After Trump Decides To Postpone China Tariff Hike

Trump doesn’t do something stupid, which is a rare event, causing stocks to go up. Whoopee!!

“Playing up the tariffs issue only won’t really hurt us,” said Geng. “It will be fine as long as no one wages a war.”

The tariffs on China were more than offset by the rising dollar. Basically, it was a verbal trade war.

Trump said he would postpone a March 1 deadline for increasing 10 percent punitive duties on $200 billion of Chinese imports to 25 percent but he set no new date.

In the meantime are US farmers still not selling much to China?

Saw interesting story on 60 Minutes on Chinese push for electric cars, both from companies and the government. One weird thing is that they monitor where all the electric cars are supposedly trying to help plan better for charging stations among other things.

Because having a Yoyo instead of a stock market is a good thing. I wonder who Trump tells before he opens his mouth?
He is a wonder at creating a problem and solving the problem, repeatedly, all on his own.

“Trump’s announcement the Washington talks made “substantial progress” toward ending the tariff fight.”

Meaning a substantial bribe was paid through shell companies into Ivanka’s Swiss account which will make its way into his coffers eventually.
