Index, measures the strength of manufacturing slips to the lowest level since 2009, everybodys going to freak out theyre worried about a recession. Which is why the dow lost 304 points, s p 5001. 23 and the nasdaq dropped 1. 13 that was last week now this market was due for this beatdown but i also told you that i dont believe were headed into recession. Im standing by that position. But the recession thesis became more compelling today and you need to get your head around it if you want to understand this market so let me lay it all out for you. One place. The single biggest problem behind the recession thesis is the president s trade policy but maybe not the way you think. Trumps towers and chinese exports have done realdamage t the chinese economy. Second largest in the world. As china falters, it is taking the rest of the trading partners with it, especially europe, throwing worries about brexit along with a lack of fiscal stimulus from germany and you have a worldwide slowdown goi

If you win, you will cement a budget in 2017. Over 90 without taking changes in mandatory programs. How do you fund all the things you want to find . Keep our nation strong. Fund it at a fair level. Both infrastructure and education. The press says, you cant do it. Were talking if this person becomes president in 2017. Cap got they have got to have a budget. Both parties whoever wins are saying, we have midterms. We dont want something controversial. Those of us over 60 50. We dont have to be told. We know how important it is. We vote accordingly.
