Why ........2008 markets crashed for reason.....today you have nothing but propaganda on trade war which is half over because of new deal with Mexico and Canada ...plus 500 points today is not same % drop as it was then ...plus you were rocking multiple 800 point drops back then
The trade war is already half over? Really? The USMCA hasn't been passed yet, and isn't projected to be voted on by Congress until after the elections, but more likely until sometime in 2019. Then, there is the little matter of tariffs with China and our trade war with them, as well as the EU. No, sorry little Trumpkin, but USMCA isn't a done deal yet, even though you wish it was. It still has to pass through Congress, and that could take another year.
It is about as much of a "done deal" as the denuclearization of N. Korea is a done deal.
A top Republican senator just made it clear that Trump's new trade deal with Mexico and Canada could still fall apart
President Donald Trump's victory lap on the new trade agreement among the US, Canada, and Mexico may have been premature, per one top Republican senator's lay of the congressional land.
Sen. John Cornyn, the second-highest-ranking Senate Republican, suggested to reporters Tuesday that the revised version of the North American Free Trade Agreement, agreed to Sunday night, might not have the votes to make it through Congress.
"I know people are still going through the details, but it's not a foregone conclusion that it will get confirmation by the Senate," Cornyn said.
The Texas Republican also said a congressional vote on the new deal, dubbed the US-Mexico-Canada Agreement, would definitely not happen until after the November midterm elections and would most likely slip into 2019.
