It is on sugar.It will get more sugar for another 1.5 to 2 years. Trump tax cuts , regulation smash, pulling out of climate deals, drill baby drill. Then reality sets. It will be a mess after that. For now, we are okay but be vigilant.

Also markets may be fine up to a point even if country suffers. And then, ultimately country is part of the society we all live in. As prices start soaring, US consumers cannot afford US products, foreign goods will be too pricey, and we will go into a tailspin

Trump will still blame someone, and MAGA and non college educated voters will be fooled.
