He should have stuck around then. He wouldn't have to worry about that in the trade area.

I find it funny even Trump's Chief Economic Advisor disagrees with his trade plan so much he's willing to resign over it.

He was supposedly out the door a few months ago...I'm surprised he stuck around this long

We couldn't get rid of that guy fast enough. IMO, he's an idiot. I may have been wrong for a couple of decades, but at least in the face of overwhelming evidence I finally figured it out. And to be clear, I am in the small subgroup that made out like a bandit over the last 30 years.

He played a major role in the White House on the tax bill. And he may have stuck around in a last ditch effort to talk Trump out of his tariff plans.
It will certainly be interesting to see what he has to say on that issue.

Gary David Cohn (born August 27, 1960) is an American investment banker who served as the 11th Director of the National Economic Council and was chief economic advisor to President Donald Trump. He was formerly the president and chief operating officer of Goldman Sachs from 2006 to 2017.
|
That doesn't say anything about his ability to promote good policy, but it does say that he knows how businesses and the market will react to changes in taxes or tariffs.
The other Trump adviser on trade and tariffs is Peter Navarro, a retired California professor, a liberal and a Democrat. His views on tariffs are generally rejected by economists across the spectrum, liberals and conservatives.

I would bet that Gary David Cohn is long calls at the opening, if he is so smart.

POTUS Trump is doing exactly what he said he would do if he became POTUS for the past 30 years. Gotta give him credit. He's in charge now . Let the chips fall where they may. Maybe he won't make America great again, but maybe at least he will make America "America" again.

With Trump you never know where he is coming from or what you are going to get. He shufflles the deck to no end. Everyone is on a gurss and the media is distracted at all times. I say its a pretty good way to operate and time will prove me right

Oh, besides Peter Navarro, of course.

Considering your heretofore 'expert' opinions on what's what and who's who in this country's political and economic world since President Trump's historic Summer of 2015, by you calling Cohn reputable and referring to Navarrro in a snarky manner, I feel quite happy with your assessment.

I am with you Tape Reader. There will probably be a lot of volatility today and maybe the entire week. Opportunity is in front of us and is all for the taking.
Cohn's resignation will not put a halt to the money generating and profit making gold mines of companies such as Apple, Netflix, Master Card, Boeing... and a host of others.
Good luck, Tape Reader.
