  1. Very little mention here of an ignoramus President randomly at war with both the Amerian and the international economy. Tariffs here and there, which the dummy seems genuinely not to understand are both taxes on American consumers and unpredictable interferences in the planning of business planners at home and abroad. The government shut-down, with a cost in the hundreds of billions so far. Budget deficits of sizes unprecedented even for times of carefully planned economic boost -- but coming without thought or planning in a time of full employment! Yet Trump is not a stupid, nor a complacent man: he is inventive and energetic. What sort of insane tantrum will he dream up next? That's what the markets have a hard time pricing. Only the competence of the EU's and China's leaders, both business and governmental, and of the US Fed, have kept Trump from bringing the whole thing crashing down in some yuuuge repeat of his destruction of Atlantic City.
