OMG!!! – Trump owns some FORD investments

Bloomberg drops the bomb on Donald Trump – that Trump has investments in Ford and Apple – what a hypocrite! Since Trump owns Apple stock, and Apple refused to unlock the phone for the FBI, Trump is obviously an ISIS supporter!

Pay no attention that Bloomberg stepped in to allow the US Treasury to wipe out the commercial paper lending business and move it to Bloomberg’s terminals.

Bill Clinton? Rape? Hillary knowingly protecting Bill’s “indiscretions”? Crazy talk.

I skimmed Trump’s 2015 FEC financial disclose form yesterday. The form shows the value and income related to things he owns. While much of his income is from golf courses and real estate, he also has brokerage accounts with several firms that specialize in high net worth individuals. The items only indicate ranges, not exact numbers.

With the rise of private equity firms taking companies private, fewer and fewer companies are available for individuals to invest in. A prudent investor keeps his wealth diversified. More likely than not, he doesn’t even directly manage his investments in stocks and bonds. That’s why discretionary accounts exist.

By having stock or bonds in Ford, that gives him leverage to potentially influence Ford’s future behavior.

    Just wait until Bloomberg remembers Trump owns the Miss Universe pageant

      Two young millennial feminist reporters (one male one female) from the NY Times just discovered that he liked looking at pretty women in bathing suits…. and they were shocked! Who could have known?!?

      I’ll bet that their hero, transsexual lesbian Caitlyn Jenner, likes that too. lol

      From memory, I think his ownership of the pageant generated $3 million in net income in 2015. For the people (not you) who want to argue about his “real wealth”, what is the value of that asset?

      With 5 year treasuries at 1.38%, it would take $217 million to raise that much income (ignoring the taxability and current value of a future cash flow, etc). If he said, it was worth $200 million, is that a “lie”?

        Once the central planners give us negative interest rates, Trump’s assets will go to the moon, Alice, to the moon!

          What will happen to reverse repo agreements?

            What will happen to the poor who get no interest on saving for a direct deposit and see what they are saving for take off in price faster than they could ever save?

            This scheme for exploiting the poor is more effective then marketing lottery tickets to them… but at least they could choose not to buy the lottery tickets – they have no choice regarding the policies that accelerate the separation of the wealthy away from the working class unless they stop voting for Bush-Obama type candidates.

            Look for Trump to expand the deficit along the Bush/Obama lines and to keep this going.

    In keeping with my own investment philosophy of buying stocks liberals hate, one of my acquisitions was Monsanto. I guess Bayer wants to raise GMO corn that causes headaches
