\"\"In fact, the market looks fairly happy today. It hasn\u2019t recovered its losses this month, but it\u2019s nice to see green instead of red for the day.<\/p>\n

The tech stocks I follow, are looking better. I suppose that\u2019s because of temporary tariff exemptions on Phones, and Computers coming out of China.<\/p>\n

It\u2019s only temporary and I\u2019m sure companies will be begging for extensions. They\u2019ll probably get them. I\u2019m sure there are some companies that are thinking all they have to do is get extensions that last long enough for Trump to term out of office.<\/p>\n

I hope that it puts everyone on notice that we need to bring at least some manufacturing back to the United States. I\u2019m not holding my breath, but it would be nice.<\/p>\n

Straight up manufacturing may be the next booming business sector.<\/p>\n

At least a bunch of countries have come to the table to rethink trade practices with the United States. That may be the best we can hope for.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
