Has Teflon Don Lost The Plot?

This week, $313bln in UST auctions at average 3 to 1 bid to cover should "occupy Wall Street" to the tune of almost $1Trn in market liquidity.  Moving West...

Once again, not to be mistaken for Tuesday's With Morrie, it's Tuesdays With Trump... (A day early, YAY!)  Following up on Amazonian Climax? Regardless of your political leanings, whether you're blue, red, or just fed up with politicians, the MSM and their BS...

Speaking of occupying the market last Friday... a Twittery warm up intro for the Jerome Powell FED UP Show on the road in Jackson Hole...

followed by an appetizing incendiary review...
only to be followed by a preponderance of this burning question...
POTUS 45 questions whether his hand picked FOMC Chair is a bigger enemy than Chinese Chair Xi?  That was just the 2 minute warning before the four course meal...
we don't need China...
The "second coming" orders corporate America to find an alternative to China...
Corporate America is ordered to bring outsourced operations back HOME... much like Amazon having a -1% tax rate, and the $665 bln repatriated spoils in 2018 from the TCJA in which POTUS 45 cut the rate from 35% to a one-time rate of 15.5% on cash and 8% on non-cash or illiquid assets, and claimed that more than $4Tn would return to the U.S.  Also, all parcel carriers are to search for and refuse...
all deliveries of "killer Chinese" Fentanyl...  After shaking off a pre market dip on China's tariff announcement, this below the belt barrage saw global markets take a nose dive.  

After the Twittiot in Chief considered that just the US market cap of $35Trn had lost 3%, he then had either a CRS (Can't Remember Shit) moment or just $1Trn in POTUS levity...

The Nattering One muses... Twittiots should only act out irrationally with a professional Twertapist, not on live Twitter.  Since July 31st, the frequency of said behavior on live Twitter, and magnitude of market vol has increased.

As any self proclaimed expert (Art of The Deal) in business acumen should know, maintaining the attractiveness of world's #1 business environment is critical to our national wealth, health, safety, welfare and future.

Due to potential irreversible downside, ill conceived attempts to meddle with our most valued competitive advantage, which is mission critical, might be ill advised in the extreme.  

The Twittiot who precipitated Fridays wipe out of an est $1trn market cap in the US alone, somehow thinks this is funny?  That's self proclaimed expertise in business acumen, which is completely bankrupt of intelligence, in action.

Trading is great again? This is not a juvenile marshmallow test, and interested parties with vested interests are watching the proceeds very closely, with less than amusement.
