    President Donald Trump today subtly threatened to decouple the United States from communist China. After spending the first three years of his presidency trying to work with Chinese leader Xi Jinping, it now seems POTUS has decided the virus outbreak that emanated from the Wuhan bio lab, and the Communist Party of China's (CCP) behavior afterwards makes that impossible.

    This development comes as continuing jobless claims reported today, although still horrific, were not as bad as forecast, implying the American economy may be starting to recover from the lockdown nightmare.

    Markets were volatile as traders attempted to digest all the geopolitical news on the United States emerging from the lockdown, in spite of Deep State attempts to keep it closed.
