I take us both being fucked equally to be a positive at this point

Trump won all seven swing states with a clear mandate to <checks notes> start a trade war with Ontario

On its own, thats a normal "bad" day for the markets in normal times. as part of a steady 7.5% downward move over the last few weeks, it speaks to deeper fears. thats a lot of capital they're pulling out to protect.
