Let's do NOT bring fake news RT-style to RFD!

From Bloomberg article above
These aren’t predictions. But they show what your social-media news feed could look like if things go wrong.
Kinda black comedy

Last year similar Bloomberg s prognosis correctly guessed Brexit and election of Trump

And as 2017 goes on we all will have a chance to compare.

Anyone can "correctly" guess binary event just making predictions on BOTH outcomes. Same Bloomberg was very "predictive"' in Clinton win in dozen "predictions" and "analysis" lol

It's easy to make gloom&doom prediction, all you need a broken clock and once actual time will coincide with them you can take them out and say "Look, I'd say you this time long time ago"

If you take a look on Bloomberg 2016 guide, how many "predictions" came true? Oil $100 per barrel, Merkel resigned, eh?
Oil prices soar after Islamic State destroys facilities across the Middle East. Angela Merkel is forced to resign, throwing the European Union into disarray. The dollar slumps as Russian and Iranian hackers team up to launch cyber-attacks on U.S banks

If someone going to make his decision on joked "predictions"...good luck with it, you can guess on coffee remains as well (personally I prefer Starbucks one)

Bloomberg also reprinted an article saying that a Trump victory would bring down stock prices by 10-15%...

Article

Lesson. No one can predict the future. Buy high quality businesses at sound valuations, and hope for the best.

To be fair, we still use this flag in Japan. It is our military emblem.
