Not to get political but then how does all of this fare with Trump wanting to install his Fed chair? We all know the economy is not great as he keeps saying.

Saw an article about basell III endgame regulations being delayed again. With the recent "maintenance" purchases wonder if that will be the tool the governments use to "fix" the banking system? I'm sure you'll comment on it if they ever actually decide on something

Queue the final scene from Animal House and a young Kevin Bacon getting run over. All is well! Stay positive! Love your work. Thank you. Would love your opinion. Your final note this morning hinted at EM being one of the safe spots to be. Been in the commodity rich Latin America in Africa EM for a while now. Do you see the private credit risk affecting these markets?
