Yeah Craig, things have been going well lately, just don't look at stocks, bonds or the value of the dollar. Things are just peachy.
You're kinda sounding left of Jimmy. Did you get a dnc talking point email?
No, but I do engage in business internationally and I see directly how Trump's poor policies have negatively affected my bottom line. Just the facts Craig, these policies have have cost me quite a bit. Tariffs have increased my overhead and reduced the numbers of clients interested in importing, the dollar is lower and that costs me more for everything I buy overseas. The bond market? I didn't think it was possible to screw that up, but here we are.
It's a mess for anyone paying attention.
Got bad news for you, but, if a manufacturer exports things outside of the US, he is interested in a lower dollar, as his goods get easier for the world to buy. To say a boutique importer (that, would be you) importing junk from the UK (no offense, but, that is pretty much what old guns are considered in the UK today) is a concern of this (actually, any) administration is laughable.
That handwriting has been on the wall for quite some time, as well. You should have been paying attention.
Just a fact. Sorry, dude. Find a widget that needs to be produced, and sell it to the world. You’ll do better doing that.
Inflation is down. Interest rates are falling. The stock market will be back, as will the bond market. To top that off, the keys to making the US able to sell manufacturing and production to the world will be in place.
How come you never complained about VATs out of Europe, but, suddenly the suggestion of a tariff has you in a funk?
Best,
Ted
