The Fed revises GDP down to under 1%, but don't worry—experts assure us it's just “temporary turbulence,” not a systemic reaction to incoherent trade policy. Believe them?

UBS still bullish. Because when you're rich, "cautious optimism" means having a golden parachute. The rest of us just get austerity, layoffs, and lectures about why it's not really a crash.
