Assuming mid-terms see the house and senate turn red, will we see any material changes to the US supply scenario?
Great question!!!
The short answer is NOPE. The same is true for inflation.
There are many reasons but they can be boiled down to two.
1.....under the US Constitution the each state in the US controls everything except international affairs and so for example one of the problems with the supply chain are trucking rules imposed by the State of California. Doesn't matter what political colour is in Washington nothing will change unless the colour in California changes and that will not happen until the second Tuesday of next week..
2...the other reason is that previous US Administrations, Blue and Red, have sold the US out to China. Saw a clip today of the Governor of South Dakota talking about food inflation and she said that the problem in her state is that the Chinese own the meat packing industry in her state and ignore anything she wants to do.
