The Daily Update - The Poem

As the markets start to close down for the holiday, we end the year with our usual Stratton Street poem. Thank you all for your continued support. As usual the desk will be manned all the way through, should you have any requirements. 

To the tune of Good King Wenceslas.

Good King Trumpie did look out

On the Feast of Stephen

Where the tariffs lay round about

Deep and crisp and even

Brightly shone the Fed that night

Though their costs were cruel

When another trade deal came in sight

Gathering hopes and economic winter fu-e-l

Hither Powell, to stand by me,

If thou know'st what’s good for you

Yonder peasant, who is the chair

Whom I put forth to his dwelling.

Sire he lives in the Eccles Build DC

By the cash mountain, that the bank it be

Sire by your own hand he still lives there.

Bring me fair trade, bring me a new term

Bring me not an impeachment, hither

Thou and I shall see rate cuts

When we bear Powell, hither

By the magic of twitter, they will hither

Let them all know they will answer or they will go

 

Sire the night is darker

The truths come forth, and legal eagles doth fly

I now know the power of twitter

I wish Hilary had come doth

The email winds blow stronger

Fails my Russia, Fails my Ukraine and Biden

I know not how,

But Sire another term beckons

Unless “you're fired” and told go “hither”.

 

Total change of tune---

Jingle bells, Jingle Bells, Jingle all the way

Oh what fun it is to see my Stratton Street Managers win for me all day.

Happy holidays, see you all in the New Year. We will be back with the Daily Update on 6th January 2020.
