Thank you Louis! You have very clear and thoughtful ideas for global investors that need to better understand implications regarding the recent trade tensions. I especially appreciate your detailed overview on the reality for middle class Americans. It is easy for many investors to overlook these factors, exclusively focusing on the daily Trump drama instead. I found your article very helpful. 🙏😊
Absolutely. Even if you do not agree with methods or actions, you need to understand the underlying reasons rather than just looking at actions and effects. One way or another the US needs to transition from a consumer driven economy to a makers economy. That means more than just manufacturing reshoring for big companies. We need policies that will encourage small business formation again. Self reliance is more creative, empowering, and more efficient, rather than an incongruent economy busting at the seems from too much monetary and fiscal stimulus for many years. As you pointed out, the average US worker did not benefit from this beyond their small overvalued 401k funds. This does not even consider the fraud, waste, and gross misallocation of resources that has barely begun to unwind or self correct. The price of gold tells you something is very wrong here.
Agreed! Countries affected by the tariffs need to take a breather and step back and look at what are the motives and what needs to be solved rather than just viewing this as an act of aggression. Let’s come together and solve the problem!

Thank you, I agree! It’s important to understand what motivations are driving leaders and the underlying conditions he’s trying to change.
