There Was Trump Obamacare News Today? Where? Stock Market's Up

Picture: Any chance we have an excuse to show
a picture of President Trump is a good day.  Here he's
shown in front of millions gathered for his inauguration.

It's no small thing President Trump is giving up on his Obamacare replacement. From what we see the stock market looks flattish pre-market. The S&P 500 ETF SPY is up a couple of pennies. Earlier in the year that would have been huge news hitting the stock market hard. Now, not much. That's why that is the news. Bullish news, we'll explain.

Quick Reminder How We Make Money From Market Action 

Market action is the technical analysis art of understanding what's the news, what should happen, but paying attention to what does happen.  When you find inconsistencies between the news and the reaction, you found a valuable piece of action.

You Don't Remember The Worst Day Of The Year March 21st?

In contrast, on March 21st, the US stock market was catching wind that the Republican plan to repeal and replace Obamacare was failing.

The US market took that to mean President Trump may not be able to get his pro-business agenda passed. That would be a stock market negative.

Markets were hit hard on the news scare recording the worst day of the year to that point.

Fast Forward to July 18th, Hey That's Today

That's right you're part of history. Same news today (Sort of), maybe worse in a way because Republicans are giving up on a piece of their agenda today.

That's the news. But how do you make money from it? By looking at how the market is acting.
