Today’s MH Market Spotlight Report –

Some give the president credit for the sun rising. Others pummel the president for every drop of rain, or perceived bad news. The truth lies between those two poles. 

Donald J. Trump is a deal maker, and a showman. His personal net worth – per Bloomberg – has dropped $100 million in a year.  He clearly didn’t take the Oval Office job because everyone loves him.  He took it because he thought he could make a difference. 

Oppenheimer Funds CIO Krishna Memani said this U.S. market is a safe bet for those with a longer term horizon.  On issue after issue, he praised the Trump administration’s policies.

The economy is stronger, job growth and wage growth are real.  The National Association of Realtors ™ (NAR) Lawrence Yun laid out a strong case for why the economy is strong. He also obliquely made the case why manufactured homes should be doing much better.

CNBC’s Cramer thinks the Europeans are over their heads with President Trump.

Former CKE Restaurants CEO Andy Puzder, tells Fox Business his take on the potential summit between President Trump and Kim Jong Un. Puzder also discussed President Trump’s plan to move ahead with his tariffs and other trade sanctions.
