Barry Knapp reacts to the State of the Union address and covers what comes next for trade policy. He thinks the U.S. might have the upper hand in trade, as China will have difficulty sending its exports elsewhere as other countries build up their own manufacturing industries, but notes that the fight has only just begun. Barry walks through Fed dynamics with an incoming Chair, and thinks they need to cut rates to 3%. “We need significant bank regulatory relief,” he adds, as well as a smaller Fed balance sheet.
