WSJ Greg IP:
“…economic-policy uncertainty at levels seen in … 2001 terrorist attacks, the 2008-09 financial crisis and the onset of the Covid pandemic in 2020. Those were all driven by events beyond U.S. control. This one is man-made, and will wax and wane with that man’s word and actions.”

Ok. It’s cold everywhere in the US. It’s warmer in Boston (31F) than Dallas Texas (28F).

But Hettinger North Dakota wins(?) at -45F. Not the wind chill but the actual temperature
