Because short-term moves in stock markets are driven by emotional responses of daytraders and computer algorithms that read twitter headlines and make millisecond transactions based on 'sentiment' data. Almost all day-to-day trading on major markets are computer to computer transactions with almost no humans involved.

I want a Twitter bot farm to start posting that Trump shat his pants on stage and start the hashtag “#pantsshittingrules” or “#diaperdon” or something to see if we can get the people who make adult diapers to have an immediate bump in their stock prices.

Hey guys it turns out there was never any phase 1 trade deal with China. You hate to see it. I mean we’ve seen the tweets but is it even necessary to confirm what we already knew. I guess investor confidence in a trade deal was bullshit again.

I think it was posted a couple of days ago that it's a pretty standard tactic by China to claim that they're ready to sign to promote the other party to go public with the deal, only for China to shove in more demands immediately afterwards and refuse to sign unless those demands are met.

definitely closed. the point of all this is to make sure these people can't coordinate their stories and that they get caught in any lie they tell

not that most of the people, so far, are hostile witnesses, but Volker and Sondland need to be viewed extremely skeptically even if they are nominally cooperating
also, confirmation this is happening:

Impeachment schedule this week


quote:


Today: Trump's former top Russia adviser Fiona Hill is expected to speak today to three House panels behind closed doors as part of the impeachment probe into the President.

Tomorrow: Three Trump administration officials face subpoena deadlines – Vice President Mike Pence faces a deadline on a request for Ukraine-related documents sent earlier this month, while Defense Secretary Mark Esper and acting director of Office of Management and Budget Russ Vought both face a deadline on subpoenas requesting documents as part of the impeachment inquiry.

Wednesday: Lev Parnas and Igor Fruman, associates of Rudy Giuliani face a subpoena deadline for documents. The subpoenas were issued the same day that the two were indicted by federal prosecutors. The subpoenas are separate from the indictment, in which federal prosecutors allege that Parnas and Fruman illegally funneled foreign money into US elections.

Thursday: US Ambassador to the European Union Gordon Sondland is set to testify. He's a key witness, and his earlier scheduled appearance was canceled at the last minute due to objections from the State Department.

Friday: There are two more subpoena deadlines. Energy Secretary Rick Perry faces a subpoena deadline for documents related to the administration's dealings with Ukraine. House Democrats have also subpoenaed acting White House chief of staff Mick Mulvaney for documents.
