‘Trump Trigger’ sends you a message whenever he tweets about a stock you own

When Donald Trump this week gave his first press conference since winning the presidential election, he alternately lauded the press and shouted down reporters he didn’t like with jeers such as: “Fake news!” He slipped into stream-of-consciousness rants about everything from Chinese hackers to hidden cameras in hotel rooms “all over the place.” And he denounced…

    “Trump could lose all credibility, both domestically and internationally, where no one takes him seriously anymore”……..Ya think!!!
    He’s an ignorant, shallow egomaniac with a HUGE inferiority complex and the world would be much safer with him in a padded room rather than the Whitehouse.

    ” One big worry: What if Trump’s tweet storms lead to a market that becomes hopelessly reactive to politics instead of economics? A former “bond king,” Bill Gross, who runs the $1.7 billion Janus Global Unconstrained Bond Fund, alluded to just that. He compared Trump’s penchant for singling out certain corporations and bullying them into changing their practices as redolent of the Italian dictator Mussolini. “Some of these pre-term policies, where [Trump’s] cajoling companies to move production back into the United States, that’s fine, but it reminds me to some extent of policies in Italy long ago associated with Mussolini and government control of corporate interests,” Gross said in an interview with Bloomberg Radio. “I don’t want it to go too far.” ” — This is what could precipitate a paid assassination attempt. You don’t mess around with world markets like that without pissing off the wrong people.

    To point out the obvious, a president should not be throwing out his opinions about companies based on whether the CEO’s do or say something he agrees with. The fact that his praise or criticism of a company can positively or negatively affect a company’s stock is one of the flaws of the market system. And this idiot’s opinions, favorably or un, are based on less than nothing. You just can’t make this sh!t up. (A sentence we will be repeating many times in the next four years, or for however long it lasts.)

    Maybe Chaffetz will investigate possible insider trading.
