Opinion and Analysis
Let’s look at the way US equity markets responded on Wednesday [May 10] to the Tuesday [May 9] news of President Trump firing FBI Director James Comey:
On Wednesday, the next day, the S&P 500 rallied 0.11% (see above chart), the NASDAQ was up 0.14%, and the CBOE VIX Index barely moved back over 10, to close at 10.2. In the words of one seasoned Wall Street analyst: "If you hadn’t read the headlines for 24 hours, you wouldn’t have known anything unusual had happened in Washington or anywhere else."
Conclusion: The media's
'Trump Derangement Syndrome' so prevalent within the
reality distortion field known as "Washington, D.C.," hasn't infected Wall Street (nor Main Street). Most Americans, thankfully, are immune and are either ignoring or laughing at the mainstream media circus which has now reached unprecedented proportions.
Bottomline: Comey should have been fired by Obama last year after
the stunt Comey pulled in connection with the Clinton email investigation. The last thing the U.S. needs is another
rogue FBI director like
J. Edgar Hoover. Trump did the right thing in following the
advice and recommendation (pdf) of the Deputy Attorney General and the Attorney General of the United States, respectively.
To the disbelief and dismay of the liberal media, the Dems and elitists,
Trump owns this market and the
Trump Bull Rally is still running on Wall Street:
