The order of the day is repackaging failure as success to satisfy the insatiable demand of an aging Idiocracy for relentless denial...
Trump, Brexit, Global Trade/GDP, 0%, Money Printing, China, Oil, Mass shootings, Terrorism, Foodstamps, Ponzi borrowing, Global Warming, ISIS have all been construed as a buying opportunity...In other words we live in a society of sociopaths for whom constant lying is the only truth...
"Profits are the key driver"
"Oil above $50"
"Interest rates are rising..."
"Labor market ok"
Foodstamps (red) with Employment-population ratio:
"China GDP better"
"JPY +16%"
"Holy fuck, no one saw that coming!!!"
