Yes, the uncertainty is perhaps the worst thing for getting investments. I just wonder if those that are saying they will invest *trillions* into our economy, will be sitting on the sidelines until all the shaking out ends and does not come back. That would make a whole lot of sense to me and, I suspect, to those investors, too. How could Trump ever have made investments in real estate during uncertainty? I will bet he never did.
