Don't tell the WH but Powell's words are more market effecting than a tweet.

Perfect Gooper logic.
It was funnier when Colbert said it, though.

Not an observation from me, you can credit Marcie Wheeler for that one, maybe one of the best investigative writers we have out there today.

That's what Red Don's been complaining about, the Fed signalling they may be raising rates.
Once again, the mighty and powerful cower before the Mushroom Dick's tweet machine. Expect GM to back off any day now.

Yeah, Manafort always seemed like a low rent grifter who hit it big by dealing with shadowy Russian figures with ties to Putin before the rest of the Republican party jumped on the cash-for-treason gravy train. I seriously doubt he knows anything that Mueller doesn't at this point so its all about holding onto hope for a pardon by Chump on his way out the door of the WH.

So you're saying this is Powell reacting to tweets and that rates aren't really neutral as Powell said today? I'm a little skeptical. I believe rates really are neutral (see my post earlier today about stocks in bear state) meaning they are where they should be for a while. I think rates need to stay here a while and let folks get used to the notion of home mortgages rates now starting with a 5 or 6 and not a 3 or 4. The Fed needed to dial the knob to here to have margin in case they need it later.
You think Powell reacted; I suspect Trump (OK, Kudlow, because Trump's not that smart) foresaw the Fed backing down the rate of increases given present economic data and Trump pre-Tweeted so as to appear powerful and influencing Powell.

If there's a tariff on all cars, I'll short the market big time.

Hurt is relative. The dollars spent by those 10's of thousands of workers goes a long way. Kind of like income distribution.
And it's not as if the imported trucks would be that much less expensive- most US built and Japanese built cars cost the same to make. The tax isn't really being imposed, other than the factories here in the US vs. Japan.

I don't want to draw this out but she is wrong. Having the idiot opposition on allows people to see it up close and personal and to expose it front and center. Just because they're on TV (and this goes for anyone making any argument left, neutral or center) doesn't automatically legitimize them. Plus doing that would only add fuel to the derp fire that all CNN does is hate on the President.

Powell rolled a +2.3 to +2.95% on the three major indices today.
(Which aligns to an earlier post by me saying anything over a 2% move in a day has a visible cause.)
Loretta Mester (FRB Cleveland) and Charles Evans (FRB Chicago) have speaking engagements tomorrow. I wonder what they'll roll out. They're in regions that GM's announcements will affect.

Somebody has to pay for your subsidies. Coal and steel subsidies are putting companies out of business. There's a real cost. Just because trucks have been subject to the tariffs for years...doesn't mean there's a real cost to consumers and any companies that rely on them.
Another way to think of it...if everyone's industry got a 25% tariff, nobody would be able to buy anything and the economy would shut down. Smoot Hawley was nothing compared to the costs of tariffs today due to globalization and connectivity.
The cost to make cars in Japan may be the same...but its not in other countries.

Sorry but I disagree. You dont get to play all concerned and offended and then have them on. You want to play the middle fine go for it. But Jake Tapper and Don Lemon arent helping in any way, they are just giving these clowns free airtime to spout their crap. Then they attack the clowns which the clowns then use to back up that they are being treated unfairly.
The election of Trump and the rise of racist, misogynistic ********s DESPITE near constant ripping of them proves that the "exposing it" idea doesnt work. CNN isnt changing any minds on the Right or Left they are just playing Jerry Springer style games in the hopes the conflict breeds ratings.
