Tomorrow's trading on the ASX?


the telling factor will be ( official ) GDP , it seems the new Government is committed to reducing spending ( waste )

since Government spending is now included in GDP and consumer spending is already ( allegedly ) under stress ( because tax cuts will lag tariff income )

fact one .... increasing MONEY supply increases inflation , everything after that is a consequence

let's see in Trump retires Government debt allowing interest payments ( on that debt ) to reduce ( therefore they no longer need to print as fast as they can )
 

Well he would say that wouldn't he ? After all he is Totally Loyal to The Don and whatever Trfump says goes doesn't it ..

In terms of the effects of Tariffs on price rises across the economy. Suddenly a whole range of imported products increase prices by 10-30%.

In which universe does the the US alternative not drift it's prices higher if the competition is now either non existent or not competitive?
 
well it MIGHT be different this time , but that has been the trend in the last 60 years ( i have been interested in prices )

now the trade-off MIGHT be more employment ( longer hours ) but then we have increased use of automation and robots

but the can of worms has be opened and spread across the ground .. what will happen next ( assuming there is no QE to boost manufacturing investment )
 
an orderly selldown in opening stages, and there we stayed all day
