Jerome Powell seems to be the one remaining govt official with a conscience. I divested half when Trump took over, got a shock after 3 months, and now rely on Powell not to be bullied re interest rates. I survived W 2008 and Trump I. "The market has always gone up." Sure, but under a fascist regime? I merely ask for a rebound. I check Trump's pale skin color and breathing when he's semi-comatose at a meeting with international leaders.
