Why a strong dollar isn’t the BIG problem President Trump says it is! 31:21

5y ago31:21

31:21

Trump has been criticizing the FED and in particularly the Fed Chairman, Jerome Powell for tightening too much and making our dollar too strong.

Chris Casey has been investing in the markets for years and he certainly sees some major warning signs that this economy may be heading toward a massive bust!

26:48

The Federal Reserve has raised rates for the 7th time in a decade. The latest FOMC statement and the Fed’s move here tells us a lot.
