Can China Defeat America In The Trade War? | Brent Johnson
Of all the disruptive policies President Trump has made so far in his second term, his hardball strategy to reform global trade has received the most scorn.His detractors call it "non-sensical" and "hamfisted".That it's based on faulty logic, poor math, and has done grave injury to relations with our closest allies.They fear it's actually driving the rest of the world into China's -- our chief competitor's -- arms. And as a result, substantially damaging America's future prospects.Is this true?And is this the reason why bond yields are rising, the dollar is weakening, and gold is soaring?And most importantly, will China end up drinking America's milkshake?For answers, we're fortunate to welcome back to the program Brent Johnson, CEO & Portfolio Manager at Santiago Capital and publisher of The Macro Alchemist.WORRIED ABOUT THE MARKET?

Is It Time To "Sell The Rip"? | Lance Roberts & Adam Taggart
Portfolio manager Lance Roberts, like Felix Zulauf, thinks the markets will remain volatile until Fall.Stocks will bounce, but then retreat, likely re-testing the lows made earlier this month.For many, this will be frustrating. Investors' hope will be raised, then dashed -- and then raised and dashed again.Lance doesn't expect a true bottom to be put in until the speculators currently in the market are washed out by this volatility.But once it's in, he thinks that will be the time to start going long more aggressively.While he doesn't expect us to get to that point for a number of months from now, stocks have bounced substantially over this past week. Which raises the question: Is it time to "sell the rip"?For Lance's answer, watch this video.WORRIED ABOUT THE MARKET?
