| |  Good morning, With the trade war cycle turning negative right into the holidays (again), more information coming out shows the potential for even deeper pushes on trade. Besides setting tariff rates, other tools exist that can materially impact a company's ability to trade across borders.
One extreme measure, the nuclear option of the space, is to simply cut a company off from the U.S. banking system. When that happens, just about all trade in the United States becomes impossible. Sources near President Trump report that it's an option he's considered against chipmaker Huawei… and one we may see in 2020. Whether this is posturing to get a trade deal or not will be revealed within a few weeks. Until then, stay cautious!

| The Perfect Income Investment? | |
|
|
Imagine a stock that pays you 100% income on your money every year... and continues to do so for the rest of your life.
$1,000 in savings would pay you $1,000. $10,000 would pay you an extra $10,000. $100,000 would pay you $100,000. And again, that's every year.
We never thought an investment like that would be possible... Until we saw this.
