Well, for two weeks before the election Obama was running around saying everything going on with the economy was because of him... so I imagine it won't be too difficult for Trump will dump it on him (via Twitter).

I was reading Huawei is banned in many countries (UK, Australia, New Zealand to name a few) from participating in any network business because they embed their technology with spyware and intercept everything. The CFO and daughter of the president of the company have (had) cell phones that are loaded in spyware for the Chinese Government. They ship restricted products to Iran and North Korea. Getting deeper into this ... China seems to have been put on the "we are done with your crap" notice from the world. Special side note: Alexander Downer was director at Huawei Investment & Holding Co., Ltd. and Huawei Technologies (Australia) Pty Ltd - seems that stopped in 2014 (which association ended when, I cannot track down).

The downer connection is huge to what this is really all about. Corrupt USIC and Five Eyes sold us out to China and profited from it.

I don't think it is that so much as it is no trade agreement has been reached with China ( forget what DT tweets, look at one is signed and agreed to)and the trade standoff continues...and this will not make it any easier to get a deal done.

First words out of her mouth were "How much money have I lost? Should I put half of my account in cash?" I told her to stop watching the market and watch the rain. At the end of the call I told her "you do realize the Dow has gone up 300 points since you called me?" "Oh.........." It's funny that people think I invest their money for a living. No I keep them from doing stupid ***** for a living. 6 minutes ago, Foxx said: A looming death cross for the S&P 500 highlights a stock market in tatters Financial pornography.

(the article itself) The November jobs report is out and shows the U.S. labor market continues to hum along. In November, the economy added 155,000 jobs and the unemployment rate stayed at 3.7%. Nonfarm payrolls were forecast to rise by 198,000 in November with the unemployment rate expected to hold steady at a post-crisis low of 3.7%, the lowest overall unemployment level since 1969. Wages were in-line with expectations, with average hourly earnings rising 0.3% over last month and 3.1% over the prior year. Wage growth has been closely tracked for signs of inflation pressures in the economy. In October, wages rose 3.1% over the prior year, the fastest pace of annual wage growth since April 2009 while 250,000 new jobs were created. Following Friday’s report, U.S. stock futures were higher following news that OPEC would cut oil production, sending crude oil prices up over 3% and bringing markets higher. “The slightly more modest 155,000 gain in payroll employment in November may not go down well in markets given the heightened nervousness in recent months, but this is still a solid gain that suggests economic growth is gradually slowing back towards its potential pace,” said Paul Ashworth, chief U.S. economist at Capital Economics. “There is nothing here to suggest the economy is suffering a more sudden downturn.” </snip> 1
