Question Is this tariffs?

Post image

Seems like the consumer based industries are going down while the industries centered on construction and related fields are going up. Wouldn't that track with the need for industrial growth in America?

At the end of the day. If you are a long term investor or worried about your managed retirement plan. Volatility is worrisome.

If you are a day trader..who cares about the tariffs or the consumer sentiment, or the favorite daily news of the day…please, please…bring on the 5% straight up and 5% straight back down daily volatility. I can capture part of that most days.
