I could go on but, as you can see, when you throw all these differences together, there is a pretty strong case for arguing, this time, that things are different. And given interest rates are so low and that it’s usually rising interest rates that kill stock market booms (with rates not likely to rise here in 2020 and only a smidge (một chút, một tí) in the US, at the best), given this is a US election year and Donald Trump has put the frighteners on the Federal Reserve boss, Jerome Powell, then the stock market is likely to have another good year.

One would expect nothing less, yet it is entirely possible that those who turned up at Woodward’s home with flares (pháo sáng) and fireworks are not regular attendees at Old Trafford anyway.
