  • Strategists at Morgan Stanley have put together a guide on which assets are most consistent with the final stages of a bull market.
  • “Our current environment of rising inflation, strong data, tighter policy, flatter yield curves and more volatility is consistent with a late-cycle market,” they said. 

The agreed definition of a bear market is a 20% decline from the most recent high. 

But it’s not as straightforward to predict when a bear market is looming. Moreover, the bear markets in the 1980s crash, the dotcom bubble, and the 2008 financial crisis were all preceded by strong final rallies.

  • A new analysis painted the clearest picture we’ve seen of how President Donald Trump’s properties have fared since he won the presidency.
  • Many of them have fared worse. Some have seen sales improve.

A Tuesday analysis from Realtor.com gave the most definitive look at how President Donald Trump’s properties have performed since he he took office last year.

The publication found that, in analyzing sales in all of the US residential buildings listed on the Trump Organization’s website, the total annual sales dipped by 50 in 2017 when compared to 2015, while the median value of a unit sold dipped from $ 1.09 million in 2015 to $ 972,500 last year.

  • Democrats just had their best Election Day in years.
  • Some say it’s a sign of a coming “wave” election in 2018.
  • But there is reason for Democrats to be cautious.

Democrats just had their most successful Election Day in years — and now many are predicting that 2018 will bring with it a Democratic “wave” election that could sweep the party back to control in Congress and in certain state governments.

The brightest sign for Democrats came in Virginia, an increasingly blue-leaning swing state where Democratic Governor-elect Ralph Northam defeated Republican nominee Ed Gillespie by roughly 9 points. That was almost double the margin by which 2016 Democratic presidential nominee Hillary Clinton defeated President Donald Trump in the state just last year.

But further down the ballot is where Democrats got perhaps even better news. In the Virginia House, Democrats erased a 32-seat deficit. As of Wednesday night, Democrats flipped 15 seats and had the chance to take the majority with a number of contests still outstanding. It was the largest red-to-blue flip in the Virginia House since 1899.

Dave Wasserman, the House editor for the Cook Political Report, said early on Tuesday that if Democrats could flip 10 seats in the Virginia House, it would signal a wave election in the 2018 midterms.

“This is a tidal wave,” he tweeted after it became apparent Democrats would flip far more, adding, “You can’t really look at tonight’s results and conclude that Democrats are anything other than the current favorites to pick up the US House in 2018.”

ed gillespieMark Wilson/Getty ImagesAnother positive sign for Democrats came by way of winning the three marquee off-year races — the governors races in Virginia and New Jersey and the mayoral race in New York City. Democrats won all three for the first time since 1989.

‘The 2017 election represents the waters receding before the 2018 election tsunami hits’

The results come at a time when Trump’s approval ratings have sunk to new lows, and Republicans on Capitol Hill have been unable to pass major legislation during a time when they have control of both chambers and the White House.

“The 2017 election represents the waters receding before the 2018 election tsunami hits,” Rick Tyler, communications director for Republican Sen. Ted Cruz’s 2016 presidential campaign, told Business Insider in an email.

Democrats zeroed in on Virginia as proof that both momentum was finally translating into victories and that enough voters were not enthralled by the Trump agenda. And they were eager to discuss the gains the party made in the northern part of the state with suburban voters — voters who have tended to lean center-right.

Exit polls showed that many voters in the state wanted to send a message to Trump with their ballot.

“A revolution started in Virginia from college-educated white voters and an uprising began from people of color — both against Donald Trump,” Jesse Ferguson, a senior spokesperson on Clinton’s campaign, told Business Insider in an email. “Virginia has always been an early-warning system for midterm elections — almost always showing us what will happen in the next year if the course of the storm doesn’t shift. As of now, there is a storm brewing and it’s heading right for the Republican districts in the suburbs.”

He pointed to exit polls that showed healthcare the top issue for almost four-in-10 voters — and those voters overwhelmingly chose Northam.

“I’m not an expert in how you win elections as a Republican, but I’m pretty sure it’s not by losing bigly on the top issue to voters,” he said.

Jesse Lehrich, another former Clinton campaign communications staffer, told Business Insider that the results in the Virginia House, where a number of GOP incumbents were unseated, marked the “clearest sign yet that a wave election is possible.”

For Lehrich, the victories provided further reason to believe that the Democratic Party’s message on healthcare, economics, immigration, and gun control were not a losing formula in 2017. He said the wins gave more reason for Democrats to “contest every election at every level, reject cynicism and the politics of division, and have faith in the goodness of the American people.”

“We are winning the battle of ideas,” he said.

Former Democratic Rep. Tom Perriello, who was instrumental in helping Democrats erase a massive hole in the Virginia House, told Business Insider that the state, “and probably the country” were going through “the Prop 187 experience,” referencing the California ballot initiative to establish state-run citizenship screening. It passed in 1994 and helped Republicans at the time, but soon led to Latino voters abandoning the party in droves and turning California into a solidly blue state for the past two decades.

“I think this is Republicans really becoming the identity politics party, and how that plays out on the map was something that did have a boomerang effect of massively turning out diverse communities and millennials who really want to see an inclusive Virginia,” said Perriello, who ran unsuccessfully for the governor nomination. 

“For 10 years Democrats have talked about taking state and local elections seriously, but haven’t really done it,” he added. “And this year it happened for a variety of reasons.”

Wait — there’s a catch

But there is reason for pause for Democrats looking to pop the champagne on 2018.

As Nate Cohn laid out in The New York Times, Democrats benefitted from a state that is bluer than the places they will be competing in 2018 to retake the House. The surge in the Virginia House, he noted, came in many districts that Clinton won in 2016 by at least 5 points.

Kyle Kondik, an expert at the University of Virginia Center for Politics, said the Virginia House results were certainly the “most surprising.” Although looking at the number of pro-Clinton districts, he said, “maybe they shouldn’t have been.”

Though he said the massive victory is “a great sign for Democrats,” he, like Cohn, pointed to the House landscape tilting “a little bit redder” than the Virginia House, “so caution is warranted.”

Republicans say this shouldn’t be overlooked

Regardless of the difference in the maps, Republicans were sounding the alarm after the Tuesday blowouts.

REUTERS/Lee Jin-man/PoolThomson ReutersJosh Holmes, a former chief of staff to Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell, said there is “a tendency to over-hype some of this.” But, he said, there is an equal tendency to downplay losses in Virginia and New Jersey, two elections that can “be precursors to a national environment in the first-term of a new presidency.”

He pointed to 2009, when Republicans Bob McDonnell and Chris Christie won big in Virginia and New Jersey, a precursor to a massive Republican wave in 2010.

“Three months later we were all introduced to Scott Brown,” he said of the former Republican Massachusetts senator. “Eleven months after that, we were introduced to a whole new House majority.”

Holmes said “discounting that situation is a huge mistake.”

“The national environment does have something to do, particularly with House races,” he said. “More concerning from a congressional point of view is that the House majority is built in large part upon successful appeal to suburban districts.”

Enthusiasm among both party’s bases is not the issue Republicans need to be worried about, he said, as staunch Republicans and Democrats were as motivated as ever to go out and vote. The losses among suburban voters, however, is cause for concern.

“What there is is a suburban population where there is no currency in stupid,” he said. “These are folks who have been responding favorably to Republican economic messaging for the better part of the last decade. Last night they left.”

He said a must for the GOP in the coming months is “getting everybody on the same page on this tax bill.”

“Because that population is disproportionately motivated by pocketbook issues,” he continued. “They don’t have the same kind of acute anxiety that more rural areas have about joblessness and things like that, but they certainly do have a fair amount of concern about the well-being of their family and the economic vitality of their region. And that’s the area that Republicans are going to have to figure out how to recapture if they’re going to win in 2018.”

Reed Galen, who served as deputy campaign manager to Republican Sen. John McCain during his 2008 presidential campaign, pointed to Trump as the reason for Democrats huge successes on Tuesday, but added that they “shouldn’t take anything for granted.”

“If Trump gets out on the stump and fires up those voters who still believe he’s the only one who can drain the swamp, it might not be so bad,” he told Business Insider. “But that might be the best outcome Republicans can hope for. ‘Not so bad.'”

On Monday, President Donald Trump signed a measure to begin an investigation into China’s theft of US intellectual property (IP). In the international business community, it’s no secret that in China, there is little respect for trade secrets. 

However, the way the Trump administration is handling the issue ignores a clear warning the Chinese government gave to the US back in January. It’s using Section 301 of the US Trade Act of 1974, a law that hasn’t been used in decades and would allow Trump to put a tariff on Chinese goods without Congressional approval.

In an interview with Prospect.org Trump adviser Steve Bannon seemed gleeful about the grave implications of Section 301. He confirmed reports that at least some in the administration had planned to skip the investigation and go directly to unilateral action, but that conflict with North Korea slowed down the process.

“To me,” Bannon said, “the economic war with China is everything. And we have to be maniacally focused on that. If we continue to lose it, we’re five years away, I think, ten years at the most, of hitting an inflection point from which we’ll never be able to recover.”

What this tells us is that Trump either doesn’t care red lines China set down at the beginning of his administration. That will have consequences.

In a rare interview with NBC in January, Chinese foreign ministry spokesman Lu Kang said in no uncertain terms that the Trump administration should continue to use the World Trade Organization to settle trade disputes. 

“China and the US are already members of the WTO, so within the WTO framework there are already rules governing these disputes,” he said. “And I don’t want to specify here but it’s not very difficult for any people to get a conclusion of what kind of reaction might be from the Chinese side [if Trump decides to put up tariffs against Chinese goods unilaterally]. That said, I want to reiterate that we don’t want to see this kind of scenario that will do harm on both sides.”

In other words: Work through the WTO or we’ll act against the US economy. Of course, Bannon and officials who think like him within the administration, like National Trade Council head Peter Navarro, have no respect for the WTO.

You can see where we have a problem here.

What’s yours is mine

None of this is to say that something shouldn’t be done about China’s IP theft.

“They’re going to be mad, but I think at the same time they know the game that they’re playing and they’re going to be mad about being caught more than anything else,” said Brian O’Shaughnessy, president and chair of the Board of the Licensing Executives Society, an organization for IP professionals. “There’s no question they’re manipulating the IP system.”

O’Shaughnessy says that US companies find that when they go to China there is only the veneer of respect for IP. In reality there is no right to privacy, especially when it comes to technology, and part of that is cultural difference. Many in China see it as the government’s duty to patrol the internet.

Of course, at the same time, this is also because in China “technological dominance, they understand, is dominance.”

So yes, this expert agrees this is a problem. But, other experts — the trade experts — believe that using Section 301 is not a solution.

“The law hasn’t been used in 50 years and there’s a good reason for that,” economist Chad Brown of the Peterson Institute for International Economics told Business Insider on a phone call. “We built a brand new trading system so we didn’t have to use this law.”

That system is adjudication through the WTO.

What’s ours is the world’s

And that brings us back to NBC’s interview. I can’t stress how rare it is for a Chinese official to be as candid as Lu was here.

“We are not prejudging anything, but I can tell you that while we have to prepare for the good to protect our national or our legit national interests but we always try our best for the good,” he said.

US CHINA trade growthInstitute of International FinanceThe good would be continuing the deep trading relationships between China and the US. Over the past decade, China’s imports from the US have grown twice as fast as its exports to the US and three times as fast as China’s total exports, according to a recent paper from the Institute of International Finance.

So if things get bad it really matters to the US, and especially to Trump’s own voting base.

More from the report:.

China last year imported 62% of American soybeans, 14% of its cotton, 17% of auto, 15% of semiconductor, and 25% of Boeing passenger planes.

China is the largest market for US soybeans and airplanes, and the second largest market for auto, cotton, and semiconductor products.

And so here we are, defying a warning from a key trading partner to follow the rules of an organization the US helped to found. We wrote the rules of global trading, and now we want to pretend they don’t exist.

I’ll leave you with a word from Lu.

“Worldwide people were interested in his slogan… ‘America First.’ My personal opinion it’s fair for President Trump to place the American national interest at the top of his agenda,” he said. “All the state leaders should put the interest of their people, their public at the top of the agenda. But the problem is that today’s world is quite interdependent, countries are quite interconnected. So while trying to pursue the interest in your country you’ll have to keep in mind the implications worldwide, and these kind of implications might come back to the policy issues at your own home.”
