Dear eMBers,
INVESTOR INSIGHTS – Market Update
I wrote about the fact that gold was overextended over the past few weeks. And over the past 3 days, gold sold off pretty hard. The gold futures were trading below $1,500 in overnight session. Traders who were short gold should think about taking some profits here. It’s very likely gold will bounce back for a few days and gives us another opportunity to go short. I still think there is more downside for gold in the weeks ahead.
YOUR SILICON VALLEY (LIBERAL) OVERLORDS
WeWork is an office-leasing company. They purchase real estate (sometimes just a floor in an office building) and transforms it into smaller offices. WeWork is a highly anticipated IPO. And SoftBank (the main shareholder) is now urging them to shelve the IPO. Why? Concerns about valuation. SoftBank made a second bet earlier this year at a valuation of $47 billion.

TRUMP IS WINNING
Broader arrests are plummeting – down 60% since May. Why? President Trump’s immigration crackdown. He is the first President who got Mexico to take action. US immigration authorities arrested 64,000 migrants at the southern border in August – approximately 22% fewer people than July, and a 60% decrease from the 130,000 apprehensions in May, according to a Monday statement by Customs and Border Protection (CBP) Commissioner Mark Morgan. And as Politico notes, “The decline in border traffic — if sustained — could amount to a major victory for Trump as he heads into the 2020 election”
