Now this, posted earlier today: JP Morgan says it's finally time to buy stocks despite trade woes. Link here at Bloomberg.Beef: this is one of many stories suggesting the US beef story is likely to get better, much better, especially in Asia. From The WSJ: ravenous China could spice up US meat stocks. Connect this with the China pork story, from the linked article:
China’s plummeting hog population is a tailwind for U.S. meat producer Tyson Foods, despite the trade war.
For much of 2019, U.S. pork has faced Chinese tariffs upward of 50%. But the value of U.S. meat exports in aggregate was still up 8.3% on the year in June, the fastest growth since May 2018.
The reason: The enormous pork shortage is sucking meat into China at an astonishing rate. Total meat imports in July were $1.7 billion, up close to 90% from the year before.
Comment: making America great.

Now The Motley Fool says:has said it hopes to receive regulatory approval for updated flight control software at the center of both crashes in October, but it could take a month or two for airlines to train pilots on the new software and prepare the jets for commercial flight after sitting idle for months.
The A-10 news got 10 times better for the aerospace giant.
