Picking Up Nickels In Front Of The Steamroller

Wall Street is still fantasizing about a Trump tax cut while everything else implodes in real-time: Imploding banks, dollar wipeout, a collapse in Trump's approval rating, a failed OPEC agreement, and overnight RISK OFF are the new reasons to buy the collapse...

So now they're contemplating extending it to see if that improves the situation. Stoned gamblers are on the edge of their seats anticipating higher prices...
