When Headlines Knowingly Mislead 📰

Most of the time, the media misleads but pretends to tell the truth.

But every once in a while, the details within the article contradict the title of the article itself, and reveal the misinformation implied in the headline.

The lead article in Barrons provides an example.

The article was titled “Stocks Are Rising as Markers React to Bowing out.”

But within the article itself, the article actually argues the exact opposite, stating that “Biden dropping out adds to uncertainty for stocks”, thereby suggesting if anything, the change could be a market negative 📉

Later in the article, the author quotes an investor who states, “the election is not in the top 3 priorities in terms of market considerations, as earnings, Federal Reserve, and geopolitics are a bigger driver.

Be aware of the media and always read the fine print 👀

Trump Hasn’t Won The Election Yet, But many Think He Already Has 🗳️

It’s only July, but investors are already placing bets on Donald Trump returning to the White House.

Energy, industrials, financials, and crypto have rallied.

Solar and other clean-energy stocks have been a wreck.

Yet nothing is clear-cut with a presidential candidate who had the market doing backflips over his remarks during his prior term 🎢

And we’re seeing some of that now—turmoil is engulfing the tech sector over Trump’s recent suggestion that Taiwan should pay for U.S. protection.

Even if Trump prevails, the policy changes and their impact are far from clear 🤷

And much will hinge on Congress – the biggest policy changes in the past 15 years have come with one party in charge of both chambers and the White House.

Without a Republican sweep, Democrats can put up roadblocks to tax cuts, tariffs, and other items on Trump’s agenda.

The 2024 Election Is Donald Trump’s To Lose, And He May Manage To Lose It 👎

After President Biden’s withdrawal from the presidential race, Trump ranted.

It should have been an opportunity to show some class and judgment by welcoming the decision, warning U.S. adversaries not to take advantage of Mr. Biden’s last few months in office, and saying Vice President Harris will have to defend Biden’s failed record.

Short and presidential, with a unifying tone 💪

Not Donald Trump.

On Truth Social on Sunday after the announcement, the former President posted this:

“Crooked Joe Biden is not fit to run for President, and is certainly not fit to serve - And never was! He only attained the position of President by lies, Fake News, and not leaving his Basement. All those around him, including his Doctor and the Media, knew that he wasn’t capable of being President, and he wasn’t - And now, look what he’s done to our Country . . .”

And on down from there.

It’s understandable that Trump is frustrated that he won’t be able to run against Biden.

But he remains the favorite and has a strong case to make against the Biden-Harris record.

The GOP convention was a political success, despite his self-indulgent Thursday speech.

The biggest doubt voters have about Trump is that he’s a divisive, vindictive man who is unable to speak for all Americans.

He had a chance on Sunday to show he is capable of more, but he didn’t rise to the occasion ❌
