What Trump is doing is risky. I understand his idea of getting manufacturing back to America. I understand there will be some pain involved. But, IMO, a scalpel should have been used where he is using a battle axe.

Financial advisers say to hold the line. For many that is fine as those young of age have time to re-coop losses. Those near retirement or retired do not. I don't think Trump is considering this at all. When you can lose a few million and brush its off it ok. There are not many like this financially. It is tiresome that playing the stock market investors take all the risk. The government does not. If there are capital gains, taxes are accessed. If there are loses....oh well. Better luck in the coming months. Time to buy real estate and gold. These two seem consistent and not much of a risk.
