"T*he Bulls are in charge of the market and President Trump's (45) policies are driving the strong economic recovery"*-- Paul Ebeling

Mr. Biden's misguided notions to step in on this strong recovering economy are unnecessary and could be very damaging, that according to Trump White House economic adviser Larry Kudlow.

"*If it ain't broke, don't fix it*," Mr. Kudlow said Sunday.

"*Infrastructure bills, corporate tax increases, the Green New Deal, do not make any sense to me*," Kudlow said. *"The economy is a terrific story.*

*"Just let it roll, and the stock market will keep going higher.*"

Mr. Biden should "*just leave things alone"* and keep the economic policies President Trump employed the past 4 yrs.

"*We are in a boom: It could last a good long time if Biden would just leave things alone,"* Mr. Kudlow said.

"*Here's what we don't need: We don't need major tax increases; we don't need giant regulatory increases; we don't need to destroy fossil fuels; we don't need to become non-competitive worldwide again.*"

Many of us fear Mr. Biden plans would be a *wet blanket* on this hot market and economy.

Last Friday, the benchmark US stock market indexes finished at: DJIA +164.68 at 34200.67, NAS Comp +13.58 at 14052.37, S&P 500 +15.05 at 4185.47

Volume: Trade on the NYSE came in at 1.2-B/shares exchanged
