President Trump continues to proclaim that the media is “dishonest” and a “corrupt system” but humorously, he says Fox News is fair. Of course he does since Fox News is part of the republican-leaning press and very instrumental in cheerleading Trump to his November election victory last year. The president proclaims, "The media is the enemy of the American people."

The US courts rule 3-0 that President Trump’s travel ban will not take effect and the borders will remain open to travelers from terrorist nations. The 9th circuit court (republicans jokingly call the liberal court the “9th circus”) upholds the suspension of the Trump immigration order. The decision is a setback for the president. The travel ban case will likely proceed to the Supreme Court. President Trump responds quickly saying, “The security of the nation is at stake” and in classic braggadocio fashion exclaims loudly, “See you in court!”

The January Publication of the Daily Chronology of Global Markets and WorldEconomics 2017-01 is available through Amazon. The epic market action continues with the Trump Rally marching on from November through January.

January’s Cover Highlights;
DOW 20,000
SPX 2,300
SPX, INDU, COMPQ, NDX, NYA, and TRAN ALL-TIME HIGHS
PRESIDENT TRUMP INAUGURATION 1/20/17
TRUMP SIGNS EXECUTIVE ORDERS
POUND IS POUNDED
GLOBAL POPULISM

The month of January is historic with the Dow Jones Industrials printing above 20,000 for the first time in history. The next day the SPX prints above 2,300 for the first time ever. The chronology describes the epic event as it occurs in real-time highlighting the companies and sectors that put the indexes over the top.

The bulls continue buying stocks with reckless abandon believing in President Trump’s promises of infrastructures spending, reduced regulations and lower taxes and of course the ongoing belief and trust in the central bankers. The S&P 500, Dow Jones Industrials, Nasdaq Composite, Nasdaq 100, NYSE Composite and Dow Jones Transports all print all-time record highs in January although interestingly, the Russell 2000 small caps are still unable to rise above their early December highs.

President Trump is officially in office and begins his four-year term. President Obama rides off into the sunset dumping a host of problems in Trump’s lap. But such is the fate of all newly elected presidents. President Trump begins signing executive orders like a madman making good on campaign promises but one-half of the country is in a tizzy over the actions.

The Italian banking problem continues to fester and stink like garbage in the hot summer sun. Central bankers are figuring a way to bailout the troubled Italian, Spanish and Portuguese banks. Portugal markets are very sick but no one is paying attention.

The UK’s pound is pounded to the 1.19-1.20 area but sterling recovers back above 1.24 in early February. The global populism movement continues with elections on tap this spring in Netherlands and France. LePen is gaining in the polls causing angst across Europe.

The chronology explains the reaction in stocks, bonds and currencies to key events and economic data releases. If you are trying to make sense of the markets this is the resource for you. No other publication exists in this format where the stock, bond and currency moves are provided and explained as world events take place in real-time. You can re-live the real-time price moves and excitement in markets for any past event including Brexit, the US election, economic data releases, Fed meetings, etc...

The chronology records economic history preventing revisionist tampering in future years. Analyst and strategist quotes and words are recorded in the chronology so credit or disdain can be handed out in the future. If a multi-year top is printing, the chronology serves as the most accurate accounting of the stock market topping process ever recorded in economic and market historyThe chronology is the most reliable and easy to understand source for explaining global marketsThe chronology is cheap and very easy to read and avoids using fancy ten-dollar college words.

As always, all monthly publications of the Daily Chronology of GlobalMarkets and World Economics are available from the links in the margins of the K E Stone blog sites or simply searching on Amazon or Google. The monthly publication contains updated information not posted on the keystone the Scribe web site as well as clarifications, edits and refinements to the ongoing daily blog text.

We are living through historic stock market and economic times. The daily chronology is the most accurate accounting on how the stock market tops and bottoms occur in real-time. The monthly publications are compatible with any electronic device and include an extensive Business Acronym List and Ticker Symbol List. The Acronym List is the most comprehensive business-related acronym list available on the internet. The chronology is not available in hard copy and only distributed around the world electronically.

The KE Stone Series of blogs are viewed by 100's of thousands of people around the globe each month including money managers, strategists, analysts, traders, investors, teachers, students, market historians, economists, current event enthusiasts, hedge fund managers, political junkies, futurists and folks that truly want to understand how the world's economic systems and markets function.
