So why did the market like Trump's trade deal today?

Nasdaq hit a record high.

1. because he did just blow up trade with a major trading partner

Trump tantrums are priced in at this point... and when they don't materialize....

2. In theory, the new deal would provide market stability.

And the stock market likes stability.

3. Because trump said

they like it.

4. I got the sense the market was being manipulated

by Trump friendly criminals. I based this on a remark Trump made during his most recent Fox interview. He said if he were impeached the market would crash and people would be poor.

6. Yeah, that thought passed through my mind as well.

It would sure be interesting to see where the movement came from (investor wise).

5. The market loves having smoke blown up it's ass n/t

[tirebiter]

7. With the new trade deal nothing really changed except for the name

That has to be a relief.

[triron]

8. I fear this may help repukes in the midterms.

[elleng]

9. Because there are no details???

[NCjack]

10. Trump always finds greater fools to follow him. nt

11. Lot's of gullibility drives of the markets.

[Squinch]

12. We've been showed this for decades: financial people

are mostly ignorant republican twits.

They're just not that bright.
