I agree with mostly no, but at least we can see the corner up there ahead in the murky distance. It’s unfortunate that we have to not so secretly wish for the stock market to take another dive on Monday morning (instead of an upwards correction thanks to all the good deals available now) but IMHO until MAGAs are really feeling the consequences of their decisions the corner will not get closer. ‘Twas ever thus.

Excellent analysis of the current state of play. I hope the mass demonstrations we saw Saturday are just the beginning. Trump is clearly wrecking the economy deliberately -- maybe as a step to declaring martial law (he will call it "marshal law, because he is stupid) or maybe on Putin's orders. Or maybe he really is dumb enough to believe what he says about tariffs. Because I hope to one day retire, I hope his wealthy cronies will lean on him to ixnay the tariffs. But I am not counting on it.
