Macron says €300 billion in European savings flown to the US every year will be invested in Europe from now on. All 27 EU states agreed to establish the S&I Union, a step toward the full Capital Market Union

      Maybe I’m delusional (and French people are probably going to crush me in the comments), but Macron makes me feel safer, and I wish more EU leaders would talk like him (or Carney)

    2. So there are some positive outcomes from orange dementia patient speeches and behaviours.

      Nowhere in this speech does he mention €300bn in European savings will flow to Europe. Do you have a source for that?

      Europe is probably the only major voice speaking out about human rights and a larger human interest. All major influential countries are run by lunatics, autocrats, billionaires nowadays. Cheering for a European resurgence here hoping to provide a balance and not look at abuse of power.

    5. What’s he referring to “300b savings flown to US”, is this private or public money being invested in US securities or US businesses?

      The old pedophile made another “flash deal”, and now 300 billion in investments will not reach the US

    7. I’m so tired of hearing about the U.S. and their culture. Going to turn off social media.. but still it’s almost impossible to escape it…

    8. What needs to happen are tax and regulatory incentives to reward Europeans for investing in European funds. i.e. Something like a tax-free allowance of 5000 EUR but only on European funds/ETFs. They could also have their financial institutions exclude US Treasuries from their required low-risk holdings, in order to force them to a European alternative.

      The US does this on Treasuries BTW. Naturally if any such plan were advanced in Europe, the US would throw a shit-fit about market distortion, so the politicians have to be ready to ignore that.

    9. I don’t know how he’s perceived in France, but I love how Eurocentric Macron is and how he stands up for the EU on the world stage.

      As a dane. I’m all for it. However I don’t think that was what McTinyhands meant when he wanted to make Europe great again

    11. As a US citizen who is less crazy than that psychopathic orange pedophile, can I invest in this?

    12. Good. This country only understands money and oil, so hitting on one of those is going to get the White House’s attention.

      Trump – Making the EU great again!! Most of my colleagues have or are stopping using US based tech and software and moving towards EU, Canadian, UK etc versions.
      Feels like Trump and his colleagues have carefully taken aim, pulled the trigger on their ideological driven gun and managed to squarely hit both of their feet. Watching them hobble around declaring victory is rather amusing, sadly a lot of people are and will suffer.

    14. It’s actually amazing how the orange turd-filled diaper man and his fanbase keep destroying themselves while reinforcing everyone else…
      A 300 billion trade/investment deal that the US will not have anymore is huge for Europe. 

      Keep it going Europe! 

    15. I know its an eye thing, but I still can’t get over how surreal this looks with those glasses

    16. I see this as extremely positive. EU must invest and foster economic growth within EU. This is a good step towards that.

      Also, how’s that for *making America great again*?

    17. Numerous-Process2981 on

      oh America. You stupid country. really just had to wave around the big stick didn’t you.

    18. As an American who is “Team Europe & Canada”, I realize the sunglasses on Macron are due to an unfortunate eye condition, but HE ABSOLUTELY NEEDS TO KEEP THIS LOOK!
