Landmark Capital’s CEO David Fischer joins Joe Messina on The Real Side. When Steve Mnuchin announced that the trade war would be put on hold, the markets evened out and the roller coaster calmed down. Gas prices have been rising recently, with crude oil alone going up 16% in 3 months. The dollar index is at 94; David says this good and bad, as the dollar is working off the oil prices. Our debt is continuing to grow at a rate that will put us in a recession very soon if not reformed.
Oil prices continue to rise as well as the dollar.
