MAGA Economics 👍

Fellow eMBers,

 

Yesterday, I talked about Google’s secret page.

 

And I showed you how Google tracks your purchase history using Gmail.

 

I blacked out one of my personal purchases. And almost all of you wanted to know what it was.

So here it is:

 

Why did I buy it?

 

Well… summer is coming. And I want to look my best. And my best is not chubby Frederick.

 

I have to lose weight (at least 20 pounds). So I hired an online personal trainer.

 

Let’s call her Dragon Lady.  

 

Why?

 

She gives me workouts through an app. I review them on my phone. And then I suffer…

 

It’s a 12 week program (gym + diet). And the workouts are grueling.

 

Sometimes I’m so sore I can barely type.

Now you know who to blame if you spot a spelling mistake in your Morning Bullets…

 

The evil Dragon Lady (just kidding). 

 

Do you want to hear more about my weight loss struggles?

Yes – I want to hear more    OR    No – go back to investing

 

Anyway, enough about me.

 

Morning Bullets. Here. We. Go.

INVESTOR INSIGHTS – MAGA Economics 

President Trump’s new tariffs spooked the markets.

I said it was an emotional reaction.  

And I’m sticking to my story.

U.S. economy is doing great. There are no signs of a recession.

How do I know?

Because media and economists or as I like to call them the dismal scientists are talking recession… recession… recession…

That means the exact opposite will happen.

Q1’19 GDP was revised down to 3.1%.

That’s pretty darn good if you ask me…

My favorite source of objective information is Economic Cycle Research Institute. It’s a think tank that has been studying business cycles for a long time. They accurately forecast recessions. And they are NOT economics.

They appear on TV every week and you can follow them for free on Twitter.

Their CEO recently said: “I don’t think there’s a recession imminent.”

YOUR SILICON VALLEY (LIBERAL) OVERLORDS

Facebook had their annual shareholders meeting on Thursday.

 

They had a rough year so far. They can’t shake off privacy issues and fake news.

 

As a result, a group of small activists showed up… with an inflatable angry emoji…

 

Take a look:   

 

The protest did not seem to impact Facebook’s stock price. {grin}

TRUMP IS WINNING

President Trump is winning. 

 

And people notice.

 
According to the latest Harvard survey, his job approval rating soared to its highest level.

Here is a quick summary:

“Trump appears to be getting a lift from the economy, with a record 62 percent approving of his approach to employment and 59 percent approving of his handling of the economy.”

Do you approve of Trump’s approach to the economy?

Yes – great job   OR   No – he should be doing more 

CRAZY THINGS LIBERALS SAY

Actor Jeffrey Wright sent a message to the GOP.

Take a look:  

 

 

Who is he again?

CRAZY-INTERESTING OR RIDICULOUSLY-WEIRD

Kingfisher?

Interesting name.

It will all make sense after you watch this 13 second video 

Crazy or Weird
