But I'll bet the market that at the end of this year the broad averages will be sitting at a nil to negative return for this year and a fairly modest one for the entirety of the Trump term.
The tax cuts, deregulation and GOP Keynesianism will have netted relatively little and the prospects for severe deterioration as we head into an extreme period of policy discontinuity will be high.
If you believe otherwise, by all means you should go all in on the long side.
It will be a perfect reflection of the short term nihilism of the ruling class. Companies will have been cannibalized and fraudulized in the search of someone making a killing and the long term sacrificed.
And, of course, True Believers, will not have been wrong- they will be The Wronged. Or so they'll need to be told in order for the looters to get away with it.
