"The day’s moves marked the sixth positive session in the past seven, suggesting that Wall Street was shaking off uncertainty surrounding trade policy that has served as the market’s most severe headwind in recent months."

I think that without the trade war, the DOW would be well north of 28k.  Earnings remain on a very positive track in this economy.


In any event,  if/when we reach a resolution,  be on the long side.  Not that the long side is a bad place to be right now.

Agree Tim.

I wouldn't want to be short anything at a time when positive news comes out about the trade war with China.
