Great article to snapshot the nothingness of the last 8 years. I Spoke with a small business gnome yesterday, and we discussed the lack of commercial paper after the 08' crash & Dodd-Frank. I am not even sure that has been fixed, but what we had discussed before was that we were in consensus on is that their is still capital on the sidelines. My guess is it comes out in January 17' or about the time the 15% Corp Tax change comes in. It will be interesting to see how business rebounds especially if Dodd Frank, and Obamacare are nixed and the EPA is reigned in...

Good post. However, the financial world right now is infested with con artists. I wouldn't trust any corporation's balance sheet or income statement unless I audited it myself.

Did his business involve underpants?

We really need Trump to come through for us on reversing all those executive orders. He’s got to get the right cabinet people in there. If he doesn’t, and allows the Fed govt. to remain all powerful as it has been the last 8 years, this will be for naught.

I’m super excited but cautiously optimistic until we see his official team in place.
