1. What Took Them So Long?

Seriously, given Trump’s many bankruptcies and business failures, what was their first clue?

2. Watching the markets

across the globe carefully at the moment.

Major scrotal shrinkage going on.

The markets will either decide to ignore Trump's bad behaviour, again, or decide the whole show is a lost cause and shrivel up further.

Holding my breath at the moment.

3. Minor correction,

The problem isn't that cars coming in from Mexico will be more expensive, it is that every car made in North America - i think apart from Tesla - relies on parts that come from Mexico, meaning every car will more expensive

4. Market was up over 500 points yesterday.

I am sure the doom and gloom people will have an explanation...

5. That's kind of like saying there's no global warming

Because it snowed outside.

Like climate where you look at overall trends you do likewise with the stock market.

6. So what are the "overall trends"?

Why don't you provide some figures for these trends? Partisan people love to tie politics to the market. It never works. Before the 2016 election Warren Buffett, a Clinton supporter, said it didn't matter who won the election. The U.S. economy would do just fine. I believe him over anonymous internet posters.
