I’m incredibly optimistic. The market loves President Trump. We’ll see a very nice rebound. It’s trying right now. It just needs a little spark to ignite. Maybe in two or three weeks, we’ll see it catch fire.

Well…a $4 trillion backstop from the Fed goes a long way.

lol, if it weren’t for social issues… I could flirt with being a republican given that I’m a pro-business entrepreneur… so we probably agree on a lot of things.

Call me cynic. I’m not a republican.

Maybe their should be a proactive department which tracks supply and demand data, so people out of work can know which goods and services are in short supply and which are oversupplied, so underemployed citizens can hook into supplying something people need.

No 'long in depth study" could possibly be conducted in a 30-60 day time frame.

The author is out of her mind.

The Dow will be back in or near record territory by September and Oil prices will be back in the fifty dollar range if not higher.

That would require people with a lot of capital and flexibility.

We’re beyond the age where small home businesses and Mom and Pop Shops can produce what most consumers want and need.

I am not aware of any majors or O&G market firms (IHS, Spears, Woodmac…) that is predicting $50+ oil price over the next 18 months.

35

One row boat in Hormuz can change that in a day.

Did they predict it to go below $20 this month?

Anything is possible.

Which makes “predictions”…

38

There are informed and uniformed predictions. There is probability. Could oil price go up to $150/bbl? It’s possible. But is it probable?

If you say so but that’s not how businesses with skin in the game operate.
