re: #187 DangerMan

and he delayed the chinese tariffs from 9/1 to 12/15 so as not to have an impact on americans at christmas time.

brings up some interesting points:

- the erratic nature of the markets - that they cant seem to find their footing/figure out what the plan is - seems to indicate there wont be a trade deal with china any time soon
- it makes no sense if china pays the tariffs how it could possibly affect american consumers at christmas time. /s (but not really)
- delaying to 12/15 means when they do kick in all he did was swap holiday season for election season - possibly not the smartest political move

The market’s aren’t going to wait until December to start building the tariffs into their costs.
