Pennsylvania city divided over Trump as it reels from economic whiplash

10. The media has a vested interest in not being alarmist.

They will go for the line 'It is not quite as bad as was forecast, so no point in complaining.'

Bit like the frostbite victim who complains about the missing toes post surgery, and someone points out it isn't as bad as it could be, he still has 2 left.

The vested interest?

Not be accused of being the first to sound the alarm that a correction is coming.
Easy to be accused of setting the correction ball rolling.

The cumulative effect of the Trump administration mismanaging the economy will lead to a correction, and maybe worse.
And it will be felt world wide.

I'm expecting a 10% drop across the board for the Australian ASX200 in the next month or two, with an accompanying 5% drop in my stock market investments.
Will be painful but not unexpected.
