    ... but I can say that some daytraders, as of earlier tonight, expect a gap up on the Futures Sunday ... a gap they'll short.

    Algo wants to exit today, but it doesn't yet have any price action knowledge from the Tariff rescission over 'the weekend.'

    Follow algo anyway, or see what the algo says tomorrow after digesting today's price action (which will then reflect the tariff news). We'll see.

    Zoom your browser out if you can't see the whole image. (typo on the chart: SUPPORT should say RESISTANCE)

    Trump's base probably won't like this. Elections are right around the corner. Watch this one get mysteriously moon-walked too.

    The ole create a problem ... then come to your own rescue thingy.

    Trump wants to start charging stores to accept food stamps
    https://www.cnbc.com/2017/06/07/trum...od-stamps.html
    • Donald Trump wants to charge retailers a fee for accepting food stamps as payment from the poor.
    • The food stamp fee would be reassessed every five years.
    • Budget office predicts $2.4 billion in new revenue from the fee, which is seen hurting independent grocers more than big chains.
    • Separately, the Trump administration is proposing $191 billion in cuts over the next decade to the food stamp program.

    This may add bullish fuel to the fire.?

    Markets can cheer: China appears to finally be addressing its US trade surplus
    https://www.cnbc.com/2019/06/10/chin...ommentary.html

    • Beijing is turning the trade leaf: Its merchandise trade surplus with the U.S. is down at an annual rate of 10% in the first four months of this year. On current trends, that surplus could fall 24% in 2019.
    • A friendly Trump-Xi meeting is likely during the G-20 summit in Osaka, Japan later this month.
    • The Fed is maintaining its extraordinarily easy credit stance with an astounding $1.4 trillion of loanable funds in the banking sector.

    • President Trump threatened more tariffs on Chinese imports if President Xi Jinping is not at this month’s G-20 meeting.
    • The president previously threatened to put levies on another $300 billion in Chinese goods if an agreement is not reached soon.

    Will Xi attend? Any guesses?

    Too soon to reliably tell, imo. I even wonder if he knows at this point ... especially considering Trump's threat trying to force him to go. Fluid situation, that can change with the drop of a tweet.

    As it stands, I'd have to forecast "no."

    But I believe Trump's people will negotiate with China (behind the scenes, of course) on some specific language for Trump to say/tweet that will essentially replace the threat, and make it possible for Xi to attend without looking subservient.

    What about you?

    Appears that Trump's latest threat has had no effect, which is surprising.

    Right, and hopefully, you stay correct.

    I suspect that as the meeting draws near, the status of their relationship will have an increasing effect on the markets ... for better or worse.

    No nation will allow another nation to destroy its economy ... without a fight. I suspect Iran could be in the financial headlines next month if things don't change.
