When the POTUS launched that foolish war with Iran, the world found itself turned on its head.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

Wall Street retreated immediately from its \u201cbull market\u201d status to becoming a \u201cbear market.\u201d The price of oil skyrocketed into the heavens, bringing the price of gasoline and diesel fuel right along with it.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

Then Donald Trump began backing off some of the dire and grim threats he laid on Iran. The impact of that backing away was to watch the market storm back.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

It prompts a question. Wall Street had been in bull market territory. Then it became a bear market. The NASDAQ and S&P 500 retreated so dramatically that market analysts said those markets had marched into \u201ccorrection\u201d territory.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

Now the NASDAQ and S&P have marched into record high territory. So has the Dow Jones Industrial average.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

What do we call a market that plunges into a bear market then storms back into a bull market?<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

This nuttier than hell political climate is doing a number on the business climate.<\/p>\r\n\n
