I'm really tired of Trump. I never wanted him as POTUS, but I thought his presidency was going better than I thought it was up until this thing with the Iranians, which I'm absolutely certain is a smokescreen to draw attention away from his impeachment. And now it's clear he has no idea what he's doing.

That's the scary thing. It came completely out of left field, like a diversion tactic. Governments do that in general (creating crises to divert attention from corruption and incompetence), but with Trump it feels like literally anything could happen at any time. All bets are off, etc.

The stock market is performing extremely strong through all this. Nothing can keep it down. It's exuberant. Which probably means everyone calling for a crash in 2020 is going to be disappointed.

There is just nothing left to put money in. To much money and no options to invest/secure it from negative rates. People are already calling for a crash since 2015, yet nothing happened yet. I don't see much going anymore for 2020. If the stock bubble blows up more, I'd be really shocked.
