Why isn’t there a trump *? Either his lack of understanding will hurt us, his massive deficits, or his desire to declare Usa bankrupt will do it. Or he’ll be indicted and the stock market crashes because Pence is worse or just the instability of it all.

Isn’t that a double negative? Shorting a short stock?

I'm not really sure how it works. The Bloomberg article on it is a little confusing. He apparently killed it betting on volatility if his options didn't expire before the 10% correction.

War with North Korea would have a severe global economic consequence. As you said, problems with China. And most importantly, almost every major tech companies source parts from South Korea (samsung, lg, hyundai etc). Major shock as supplies plummet. Cost goes up. Companies can't satisfy customers. Halt to all research and innovation coming from east asia.
