Well this just means nearly 70% of CEOs stand to lose and the others stand to win.

This is like a referendum on "How much US business has a global reach?"

Maybe Trump will run another PPP scam
for all the small businesses that are about to go under
because of Supply Chain issues.
Again.

Tots and pears because I expect most of them supported trump.
But you have to love the righties now being more anti- business than Karl Marx.
They prefer the American economy to collapse to admitting trump is over his head when it comes to the economy.

You're really good at missing the point on purpose.

Too bad you didn't bring that energy to finding any purpose in life!
