3 Things
1)    Trump not pleased with Putin, 
I feel like he doesn't respect me...
These are not words you want to hear from Trump.

2)    We passed a Spending, Debt and Deficit bill, 
Debt and deficit tend to burden growth...
We are in a War-ish time, cold and hot...Globally

3)    World Bank's Worst decade since the 60s report was released.
Click blog, click “Show All” at the bottom,
While you're there, go all the way back to the FDIC Report on bank balance sheet.
(Perspective) What do you notice?

**I don't see support for the valuations that exist.

 -1 What if,
Just imagine for a moment... 

You're somewhere around these valuations in 1929, then again in 2000...
and 
You decided to reach out to someone who had data & positioning for you,
Before it all transpired...

Would you be proud of you?  Genius like, perhaps?

1 Lesson,
Big Picture Wealth (Forrest) View vs. Micro Managed (Tree) Speculation...

A Challenge:
Jordan, Bird, Woods, Brady, Bradshaw, Nadal, Djokovic, Messi, Mantle, Williams, Rose, UConn Lady Huskies Basketball, Serena Williams:
Doubters or Committed Action Takers (Pros)?
Which one are you?

Make the call...

P.S. They all had a coach/guide.  This is the pros, how pro are you..?
