Key Quotes
“The CNN story is heavy on “not confirmed” and “unverified” and “allegations”, and is based on material sourced by a former-MI6 agent hired by anti-Trump Republicans to dig up comprising material; the 35-page leaked report itself is categorically explosive (and at the very least contain significant amounts of urea).”
“This may prove relevant to markets today in that this messy US news-flow suggests one of two possibilities: either Mr. Trump is compromised and/or weakened, even before assuming office next week; and/or elements within the CIA and FBI are so anti-Trump they are prepared to undermine him in public.”
