Looking back at the history of China’s relations with the US and others, couldn't agree more with @elyratner in FT : “Amid an otherwise chaotic foreign policy, the Trump administration has settled on a surprisingly coherent approach towards China — one premised on deference, aimed at buying time and built on the conviction that accommodation will earn goodwill. That doctrine is now setting the stage for President Donald Trump’s visit to Beijing in May. But it is as misguided as it is dangerous.” “The Trump administration’s new China strategy ignores... history. And, in a bid to placate Beijing, the concessions are piling up. The administration has curtailed support for Taiwan, loosened technology controls, and scaled back investigations of China-linked cyber attacks.” “Predictably, this policy of accommodation has emboldened Beijing. China’s leaders are growing more confident, drawing conclusions about Washington’s waning will to defend its interests or stand with its partners.” 1/2

At today’s University of Michigan graduation, Professor Derek Peterson thanked anti-Israel protesters for 2 years of campus chaos. Turning a commencement speech into a political rant like this is grounds for termination. Sickening.



Believe it or not… EMAs and SMAs are engineered to lock out retail before major moves begin and get them to buy when smart money starts to look for exit liquidity.
