So, they don't do as well without a trade deal that favors their side? Huh. That just defies logic.

Seems like, to me, it would be a good plan (for Trump's re-election chances anyway) to let the market correct NOW, then roar back by early 2020."Don't let the market become any more illiquid than it already is," Trump tweeted. "Stop with the 50 B's. Feel the market, don't just go by meaningless numbers. Good luck!"
I guess maybe he hopes if the Fed stays off the brakes the bubble won't pop until after the next election.

Yeah but do things have to be back to “good” or is “getting better” sufficient?

Fed raises rates, as expected. But they left in language about next year's raises, but added a bit of language about being more dovish on raises.
Market down on the news, had been expecting the Fed to be a bit more cautious in their outlook.

Markets down again.
I would use this as an opportunity to look at some stocks that may have bright futures but have been dropped. If you're into risk, AMZN might be a decent buy (currently at) 1440 or lower, 30% below its peak earlier this year.
AAPL down 31%, testing it's year lows.

Our empirical findings show that the tax multiplier is essentially zero under relatively low/moderate initial tax rate levels and more negative as the initial tax rate and the size of the change in the tax rate increase.

On the other hand, they are doing something smart, and ending their Apple tax for subscription revenue
