Yet our portfolio, as of mid June, and my wife's 401k, are back to where they were before the 'sky is falling' media created panic over Trumps tariff proposals. Only ones who lost are those who, like idiots, sold in panic.

The reason the stock market came back was due to Pres Trump backing down on his tariffs.

To bring the countries to the table to negotiate he purposely put in place high tariffs, never intending to keep them that high - just a negotiation tactic, and you did not even 'get it'. Of course, like so many of the libs here, you seem to have a lack of business acumen.

Try reading The Art Of the Deal and you may just learn something -- assuming you can comprehend what is written there.

Personally, I bought and read it in early '88, a few months after it came out.

"I prefer not to see the POTUS personally and publicly engaged in trade negotiations"

Problem is that no one else out there has the power, let alone the business acumen, to accomplish what Trump is doing, in either party. There has been no president/administration in our lifetime who has been willing to tackle this to aid the USA economy -- so GO TRUMP!

Good as overvalued to begin with.
