The result.... Putin and China win

No country should allow massive trade deficits and all trading terms should be equal; China is dangerous, they undercut all businesses using slave labour in giant factories, destroy local businesses, take away jobs, destroy skills, then buy up your assets or bribe governments

It happened before and bounced back.

So much for the brilliance of the market, it has fallen for Trump's idiotic will-he-won't-he again and again. Zero capability to learn even the simplest of lessons: that this is all just a game to Trump and he'll reverse the reversal again whenever he needs a distraction.
