x 0   x 0  Alert Admin	Time to plan for the possible outcome of the US China Trade Talk. IMO, this trade talk will not have any significant break through and the outcome is likely to be below market expectation, this might not be so obvious in the beginning as currently many investors are still in the " feel good mood" .  1) So at best a knee jerk up then correction or 2) Correction after the statement from the Trade Talk is release.

Luzern      ( Date: 04-Jan-2019 08:47) Posted: What can Powell say to bring on another correction. 1) The US economy appears to be slowing further data is  needed to confirm the trend. (still unconvinced of the slowdown) 2) We will be following the data closely to adjust the pace of interest rate hike. (re-active rather than foreward looking, unconvince of the slowdown) 3) The unwinding of the Feb asset will continue at its current pace and will be adjusted if the situation calls for it. (re-active and not taking active steps to ensure liquidity in the economy and in fact sucking liquidity from the economy)

They are the victims of decades-old unabashed mercantilism that Washington continues to tolerate. Asking the Federal Reserve to make up for the damage done by rising trade deficits and an unaffordable fiscal policy, is unmistakably a quick road to recession. Let the Fed focus on price stability to maintain the economy within its noninflationary physical limits to growth.

The U.S. and China will hold vice ministerial level trade talks in Beijing on Jan 7-8, according to the Chinese commerce ministry. Dutt acknowledged that the issues at hand are " very complex and difficult," and both parties will unlikely come to a comprehensive deal at the end of a 90-day trade truce &mdash but there will likely be some sort of a smaller agreement, he said.

There is a window of opportunity to strike a deal before the U.S. economy weakens further and China comes out of its slump later in the year, said one global economist. U.S. officials see signs of progress in trade negotiations, ahead of formal talks next week, and see a weaker Chinese economy as a catalyst for it to join talks.

x 0   x 0  Alert Admin	If Powell is as hardworking as  we read him to be and there is no sudden change in his style.  We expect him to do some research on what language the market wants to heard now and use them tonight.  I bet he did not expected to crashed the market (Dow) by over -2000pts previously with his statement, its is actually more of  his choice of words that kills it.  So this time round, we expect him to learn a thing or 2 and be more careful.....    IMO, DYODD.  There is a small outside chance than his " guay lan" side  might show under pressure.  If that happens and the market crashed, then his career with Feb will be over rather abruptly.

x 0   x 0  Alert Admin	Its a good thing that Mr Lighthizer is not schedule to go to Beijing for the trade talk.  He is a tough one and have a higher pain threshold than Trump, hence, he will be tougher on China than Trump,   even at the expense of the economy which he probably will  take as necessary  short term pain for long term benefits.    IMO
