Yeh that's not me unfortunately. lol. Way I see it, going into 2019 need to be very selective on bullish sectors to do well.

Banks like BAC, JPM, C, Visa into Q2
Retail tickers and XRP in Q1
Hemp/CBD related in the emerging "health and wellness" sector (FRLF is my #1 pick for OTC in 2019 - u really should read the recent filings and PRs) - Q1/Q2
Rental REITs - probably all year
Tech that makes money directly from consumers (AMZN is a good bridging play, Paypal should do also do well). Apple is dicey / too much of a 'one trick pony' IMO. Q2
Maybe we see some tech sector strength coming out of Q2 into Q4

Business and foreign trade landscape is "evolving" and will take some time to shake out / settle in as it is crushed and rebuilt. No country wants to blow up foreign trade and all will bend / adapt. It is a GOOD thing that US will have a more equitable trade position as we have been getting boned hard for decades.

Also with building local industry up vs sourcing overseas- that is a GOOD thing for long-term GDP and strength of our jobs economy but will take time- We threw away all of our new talent coming out of school because they would never have gotten a job. Good folks were fired and replaced by overseas workers at 50% the wage. SMB's crushed by heavy taxes. large business never got any breaks for remaining 100% USA-based. Now that is slowly changing. But will take time for businesses to find qualified US-based hires / resources especially in the tech sector.

Trump has good and bad sure but the bottom line, the guy is actually getting shit done and taking on the hard issues. not afraid to go to the mat and stick to guns. definitely one of the best business negotiators we've ever had in the oval office.
