But you have to factor in customer loyalty and like #Apple, #Tesla has rabid fans. For example, Apple's stock should have tanked when it came out that they were deliberately slowing down customers' products so that they would be forced to buy new products - that's a complete betrayal of their customers. But it barely caused a blip. $TSLA$AAPL
@[Thomas Mitchell](user:6142), that's just #Trump's style. He feels he can get a better deal by being a bully. And if he has the leverage, he is probably right. No one is going to give us a better deal because we're "nice."
That being said, there is much more to diplomacy than negotiating trade deals and Trump has to be careful that he is hurting our long term relationship with important allies like Canada.
You are probably correct about much of this. But I believe North Korea is only linked with Iran out of necessity and a lack of other options. If they feel aligning with the US is in their best interests, they'll do that instead.
@[Moon Kil Woong](user:5208), you wrote "Too much was given up with nothing really from N. Korea."
Unless you read something verifiable that I did not, I don't believe we're privy to what was negotiated behind closed doors. However, based on the news I've seen, so far there has only been a commitment on North Korea's part to abandon it's nuclear ambitions and continue negotiations. Plus, unlike the sham of an Iran deal where Obama let Iran inspect it's own nuclear sites (a total joke), N. Korea will allow international inspectors in.
While certainly many retail stores are suffering (#ToysRus immediately comes to mind), I do recall reading that many stores like #Macys were benefiting from a rebound and increased sales. $M
