    A thought crossed my mind: Trump doesn't have his assets in a blind trust, which means he is in the works best position to perform tailored market manipulation. I read that he's done market manipulation before, which makes me wonder if he could notice and action the opportunity now?

    I wonder this due to the super fast turn around with the Mexican tariffs. There's no way that Mexico could plan action quick enough to satisfy his requirements, so there's something disingenuous going on there... or maybe someone just convinced him that it was too damaging a game to play, especially while taking on China?

    Mexico have put a whole heap of troops (thousands) on their southern border and have detained central Americans getting through. That is why Trump has said that a deal/no tarrif situation may be forthcoming.

    Market seems to have gone a little over the top lately. Everything seems to be going up. Time to sell up and wait it out a bit?

    In my experience, hardly a month passes by without someone thinking or posting like you.

    Best you only invest in companies you have faith in (in the long term) and remember it is all about "time in the market, not timing the market."

    It is also about individual companies, not the index. There are always companies outperforming the index. The skill is to find these.

    FWIW an ANZ economist interviewed on the radio today, expects the NZ economy to perform better in the second half of this year, and well into 2020 and added to that at some stage the world will wake up to what a great wee economy we have (and some great companies competing on the International stage) all protected by some marvellous Free Trade agreements and pretty immune from Trump's trade wars.

    JMHO - DYOR and take responsibility for your own decisions.
