1 Million Jobs, Poof! Jack Ma Warns “20 Year Trade War,” Plus MH Market Updates

CNNmoney9.19.2018ManufacturedHomeStocksMarketsReportsMHProNewsNew York City Mayor Michael Rubens Bloomberg owns Bloomberg News. Bloomberg has signaled an interest in running against President Donald J. Trump in 2020 as a Democratic Party candidate. So even that brief background is enough to say that Bloomberg News is not a pro-Trump media outlet.  With that brief insight, tonight’s market featured report is partially from Bloomberg, which reports that Jack Ma, China’s richest billionaire, has warned that a 20-year trade war” between the U.S. and China lies ahead.

The evolving Daily Business News market report sets the manufactured home industry’s stocks in the broader context of the overall markets.  Headlines – at home and abroad – often move the markets.  So, this is an example of “News through the lens of manufactured homes, and factory-built housing.” ©

Part of this unique evening feature provides headlines – from both sides of the left-right media divide – which saves busy readers time, while underscoring topics that may be moving investors, which in turn move the markets.

Readers say this is also a useful quick-review tool that saves researchers time in getting a handle of the manufactured housing industry, through the lens of publicly-traded stocks connected with the manufactured home industry.

This is an exclusive evening or nightly example of MH “Industry News, Tips and Views, Pros Can Use.” © It is fascinating to see just how similar, and different, these two lists of headlines can be.

promised in the U.S. are now off. Long-time Daily Business News on MHProNews readers may recall that Ma was one of those that made the trek to Trump Tower during the 2016 transition, promising jobs and investments in the U.S. That’s when the now revoked “1 million jobs” were promised.

Ma also said, per Bloomberg, that Alibaba and China must prepare for a “twenty year trade war”  with the U.S., one that will extend far beyond the Trump Administration.

Bloomberg reports that “China needs to strengthen its economy to deal with the conflict and shift trade relations from the U.S. to regions like Southeast Asia and Africa, Ma said during a speech at the company’s investor day conference in Hangzhou.”

Short term, business communities in China, U.S., Europe will all be in trouble,” Ma said, according to Bloomberg as he paced a stage in an open white dress shirt and punctuating his remarks with forceful jabs. “This thing will last long. If you want a short-term solution, there is no solution.”

Bloomberg’s commentary in the video below is interesting.

 

The Dow and the S&P rose again, despite reports like that that the trade war could get worse. Investors are beginning to adjust.

Editorially and logically, it made no sense for the United States to ship factories and jobs overseas for decade. But that was arguably particularly true with Communist China. Democratic and Republican administrations alike share the blame for a policy that saw more wealth go overseas, that funded a growing Chinese military, that caused the U.S. to have to spend ever more on the military too.  To pay for a growing federal debt, especially during Presidents George W. Bush and Barack H. Obama, the U.S. borrowing included China.

The Bloomberg analyst in the video suggests that President Trump may not be interested in making a trade deal.  He may be more interested in bringing those industries and jobs back to the U.S.  But either way – with an improved trade deal, or with more jobs and investments coming back to the U.S., the net result could be an ever rosier investment position for the U.S.

The biggest caveat could be the 2018 midterms.  Readers are reminded that in 2016, MHProNews was one of the few that said for weeks pre-election that their were several reasons to believe that Donald J. Trump could win, despite the headlines from polls that widely proclaimed Secretary Hillary Clinton as winner. That same thing could happen in 2018, but it all depends on turn out.  Issues like the one below will be among the drivers. Stay tuned.
