Mid to long term, market remain bullish. Trade war with mexico is over before it actually start, they reach a temporary truce as both US and Mexico agree to do more to stop the migrants, the optimism of the global Trade war having a solution is one of the reason why we see the US stock market move higher over the past 2 weeks.
