*Boeing Designation: 377 Official Nickname: Stratocruiser*

Durable goods orders released this morning rose for the sixth month in a row. Ever wonder why the corporate business media has been so against Boeing, especially prior to the 2020 presidential election? Because, Boeing is America's biggest big-ticket exporter in dollar terms. Just like the vaccine, the FAA put Boeing's 737 MAX back in the air AFTER Nov 3rd, in order to harm President Trump's re-election chances.

Housing continues to be strong as wealthy Americans move away from Democrat-run violent, locked-down cities.

The trade balance continues to grow and be a problem. Look for this to improve after Trump is inaugurated on Jan 20, and the world has to face a strong America where trade terms are concerned.

Consumer sentiment remains weaker due to lockdown and election uncertainty.
