This chart proves the existence of a POTUS ‘put’ in the stock market
() and bold are additions
(considering that we have been dealing with a FED put for decades, and it's only pulled away to cause war(s), recession(s) and moar opps for the system to buy low….it' about time.
Think what you may of POTUS, but there is an undeniable fact.
If you watch the stock market as closely as I do, you would notice that POTUS often has impeccable timing to prop up the market. The timing of his latest announcement hit the bull’s eye. How so? Let’s explore the issue with the help of a chart.
Cap#2
ETF SPY, +1.13% Similar conclusions can be drawn from a chart of the Dow Jones Industrial Average DJIA, +0.97% Please note the following:
• The chart shows the stock market was falling.
• The VUD indicator, the most sensitive gauge of supply and demand in real time, was orange, as shown on the chart, indicating the supply of stocks exceeded demand.
• The setup was near perfect for the stock market to have kept declining.
Which is EXACTLY what they system want's so that it can be blamed on POTUS.
Nothing wrong with the little end-around against these ass-hat's.
• Trump perfectly timed the announcement of a delay in tariffs on cars and car parts.
• As the chart shows, a sharp rally ensued.
• Even the stock of Apple AAPL, -0.24% rallied. Apple presents a significant China-related risk.
It certainly does with it's first qtr chinese revenues declining by 27%.
• Semiconductor stocks that also represent China risk, such as Intel INTC, -0.11% AMD AMD, +1.61% and Micron Technology MU, -2.99% also rallied.
• Popular stocks that do not have material exposure to China, such as Alphabet GOOG, +1.45% GOOGL, +1.39% Amazon AMZN, +1.83% and Facebook FB, +0.36% staged stronger rallies.
welllll……not on the surface mind you, but ok I'll go with that for optic's.
The Trump ‘put’
The prevailing wisdom is that there is a POTUS “put” under the market. In plain English, that means there is a belief that the market won’t significantly drop because POTUS always props it up.
Would you like it to drop?…you'd be out of a job if it did so don't be disingenuous-trade what you see, not what you think or want to see.
PANIC….fren
Patriots Are Now In Control

Stocks making the biggest moves midday: Cisco Systems, Walmart, Farfetch & more
Cisco surged 7% following the release of its better-than-expected third-quarter earnings and upbeat revenue guidance. Cisco reported earnings per share of 78 cents, slightly higher than the estimated Refinitiv estimate of 77 cents. Revenue came in at $12.96 billion, topping expectations of $12.89 billion. For the fourth quarter, the technology company estimates revenue will increase between 4.5% and 6.5%. Analysts estimated an increase of 3.5%.
Walmart — Walmart popped 3% after reporting earnings that beat analyst expectations. The world’s biggest retailer posted earnings per share of $1.13 on revenue of $123.93 billion. Analysts expected a profit of $1.02 per share, according to Refinitiv. Same-store sales grew 3.4%, topping the expected increase of 3.3%.
Farfetch — Shares of luxury online retailer Farfetch tanked as much as 16% and were down 9% midday after the company reported disappointing quarterly results. Farfetch posted a loss of 22 cents a share on revenue of $174.1 million. Wall Street estimated a loss of 16 cents on revenue of $171.1 million, according to Refinitiv.
KB Home — Shares of KB Home jumped 3% after RBC Capital Markets upgraded its stock to outperform from sector perform and raised its price target for the stock. RBC cited improvements in the home builder’s pricing dynamics for the upgrade.
Liberty Media Formula One — The parent company of Formula One racing rose 2% after an analyst at B. Riley FBR upgraded it to buy from neutral. The analyst cited a potential “further inflection as it begins to harvest the benefits of two-plus years of foundation building and fostering better alignment with the 10 F1 teams.”
They (liberty media) also bought it at the top of it's valuation so just because some analyst slaps an upgrade on it is no reason to invest in it without doing your own due diligence-what is the first four letters of ANALyst.

Fed needs to let inflation rise above 2%, Kashkari says
SANTA BARBARA, Calif. (Reuters) - Low U.S. inflation expectations are sapping the Federal Reserve’s ability to respond to a future downturn, Minneapolis Fed President Neel Kashkari said Thursday, calling for the Fed to allow inflation to rise above 2% to bring the economy back to full strength.
“In my view, we have not implemented our current framework as it was designed to be implemented,” Kashkari said in remarks prepared for delivery to the Santa Barbara County Economic Summit, referring to the Fed’s 2% inflation target. “For our current framework to be effective and credible, we must walk the walk and actually allow inflation to climb modestly above 2 percent in order to demonstrate that we are serious about symmetry.”
The Fed earlier this month unanimously voted to keep its target range for short-term interest rates at 2.25% to 2.5%, and has signaled through economic forecasts that it may keep rates on hold through the end of the year.
Traders of short-term interest-rate futures, by contrast, are betting the Fed will need to cut rates later this year to combat an economic slowdown.
Kashkari has consistently been among the most dovish of U.S. central bankers, and opposed the Fed’s rate hikes from 2015 to 2018, which took place even as the unemployment rate sank but inflation only briefly reached 2%. Unemployment is currently at 3.6%, and inflation is by the Fed’s preferred gauge running below the target.
In his prepared remarks, Kashkari stopped short of calling for a rate cut, instead casting his comments in the context of the Fed’s current effort to figure out if a different policy framework could deliver better results for the economy and for inflation.
“Raising rates while inflation was low is an example of a shortcoming of how we implemented our framework rather than a shortcoming of the framework itself,” Kashkari said, saying he was skeptical if a different framework, such as a price-level target, could work better. “We must consider how our existing framework could have performed if we had utilized its full potential to support the economy.”
Despite slashing interest rates to near zero in 2008 and buying trillions of dollars of bonds, the Fed’s policy was too tight during the depths of the crisis and the first years of the recovery, he said.
When the Fed began raising rates in 2015, he said, it did based on “faulty” signals from the unemployment rate, which Fed officials mistakenly believed would send inflation rising faster and more strongly than it actually did.
Kashkari does not have a vote this year on monetary policy but takes part in the Fed’s regular policy-setting meetings in Washington.
