Hate to burst your bubble Tro, but this was already implemented PRIOR to the G20....

Also note how oil has failed to feature anywhere so far on triff news .....ie *new* news:)

If oil goes up as is expected, it wont have anything to do with this....China started buying oil BEFORE this meeting...

''China will agree to purchase a **NOT YET AGREED UPON'', but v substantial amount of....''
NOT YET AGREED UPON?? Hmmmmm?? That shouts confidence, compromise & conclusion #BigFatNot
No manipulation of what really happened & what has really been agreed i.e #BigFatZero

'President Trump has agreed on 1 Jan 2019 he will leave tariffs on $200billion worth of product at 10% rate & not raise to 25% *AT THIS TIME*'
AT THIS TIME?? So in other words, once markets have been pumped (again) he will change his mind? How is this positive?!?? #IfsAndButs

Ive yet to get any replies that have challenged me.....not to say Im right.....but those stating a deal has beend one, seriouslY??!! What kind of deal were they expecting??

Making friends the Ionic way!!:)

Admit I was feeking facetious ths morn when tweeting, prob the Ionic effect rubbing off on me :) ....BUT I still stand by what I wrote as Ive yet to be convinced otherwise:

**Many more rounds of negotiations are needed** to completely scrap the 10% tax increase, & China should be aware that the US **might** go **back on its word**'

''China & US agree to *TRY* to reach agreement on several trade issues within next 90 days''
*TRY*? You mean like they've been *trying* t/out most of 2018 but failed? 90 days? And there was me thinking it was this w/e that was abt the Trade Deal! ''

Halt **new** trade tariffs

That's not a deal. It's the same **** they've been spouting for months and .......then soonafter retracting upon.....

How is that a deal??!!:)

Read an awful lots of 'Ifs, Buts, Maybes, Could, Might, Possibly, Try,Hopefullyy' etc in various headlines and summaries.

Not yet read anything saying 'US and China have come to a final deal and permanent halt regarding trade tariifs/wars'.........

I doubt I will anytime this year either so forgive me for not holding my breath but I kinda wanna see the New Year in.............. :D

This is a more detailed and insightful perspective and shows how views can be manipulated:

https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-latin-america-46413196

This headline very clearly states ''US-China trade war: Deal agreed to suspend new trade tariffs'' There are others floating abt....

That is to state they have *temporarily* halted *further* trade tariffs for the *time bing*

It does NOT say they have come to a deal. It does NOT state anything has been agreed *permanently*.

If anything, the fact is it only 'suspension' means that the trade tariffs can (and most likely will) resume at any time.....ie once they've ramped/pumped up the markets sufficiently.

Those stupid enough to think a final deal has been done or that any significant, permanent progress has been made seriously needs to have a word with themself imho.....

IF that were the case,trust me Trump wld have been tweeting everywhere in his normal smug dememanour. Well, he aint....and that's nothing to do wit Ex_President Bush passing away b/c even that wldnt stop Trump....

Seen a load of **** this morn on various sites. Wldda responded earleir but watching LFC take priority....

Anyone stupid enough (esp those on Twitter) to cite US and China has done a deal from the various headlines published needs to go back to Primary School and learn to read....!!

YEAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH (again)!!!

Yeaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah!!!!

PS And trust me, I was screaming v v v v v v v v v v v v loudly...96th minute!!!!

:))))))

You too!! Enjoy the err Carmina Banana lol; I though that sort of thing was for posh ppl only;)

Have a great w/e Ionic, signing off too, outta here! Tata :)

Make. That. Death. Cross. Happen!

Yes, abt 4.366-ish initally wld be good.....? :)

into the $49s again, did a 100c bounce and once again the $x bounce is being awaited by all......

behaving well (touchwood!); dropping though taking its time...but 4.5xx remaining pivot area it kps returning to...bar the 300 point up and down spikes it does everyday....

Yes it would else better not to be in any at all which Im considering as they cld just pump/gap it open on fake US/China talks on Sun eve only to then tank it next week

Dont trust them......

In effect markets are weak but they're rallying the indices or at least attempting to; what's been so positive abt the last 2 days for them to rise? Nothing....

Fed next week so that will be precarious....e'one now expecting him to put interest rates on hold...be great if he put them up; markets wld tank!

I wld expect indices to return to SoC following that news..............but it will havegot the weak shorts.....

Lol, stuff Dax, Dow jumped over 100 points!!!

Crumbs, Ive got the Ionic curse now....:(

It was apparently Lighthizer saying he wld e surprised if China dinner talks fail.

Again all speculation but the stppoid market jumps.......!

I forgot to say touchwood in that other post and hence jinxed meself; keeping my g0b shut in the future, lol......

10-15% on Dow, NG, NQ etc wld currently suffice; Im not greedy:)

50%????! If only..........

Indices having a hard time today ....:) Hope US doesnt reverse that..........
