Let the back peddling begin.

[C_Clayton_Jones]

Putting aside that indiscriminate tariffs are idiotic, and that Dotard doesn't understand how they work, on top of that he's being erratic.

Tariffs are indeed idiotic – as is Trump.

Tariffs won’t ‘bring back jobs’ – unless Americans want to work for $5 a day.

Tariffs also won’t ‘bring back’ factories – the factories in other countries whose workers earn those $5 each day.

Tariffs only hurt consumers, increasing prices, disrupting production chains, and causing shortages and unavailable goods.

Yet the $75K I lost in the market in the first year of the Biden regime was not Tater's fault.

What was the 4 year Overall?
You know, the DOW that went from

30,996 to

43,487.

Let's do some math. 43,487-30,996=12,491
The % INCREASE is calculated as 12,491 / 30,996 = 0.403 which is 40.3% increase.

You need to FIRE your financial advisor. Because after the first year of Biden, the market went from 30,996 to 34,265, an INCREASE of 10.5%
Only an idiot claims to lose 75K during this period.

Actually it's more like back piddling on the democrat side.

Stock futures rise after Commerce Secretary Lutnick suggests possible compromise on Trump tariffs​

U.S. stocks slid for their second day in a row after President Donald Trump’s new 25% tariffs on Canada and Mexico officially took effect on Tuesday. In response, Canada, Mexico and China — with China hit by an additional 10% duty — have prepared retaliatory measures.

However, Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick said on “Fox Business” on Tuesday afternoon that the U.S. might meet Canada and Mexico somewhere “in the middle” to “work something out” on tariffs.

“The thing that we have emphasized over and over again is that Trump introduces uncertainty. We now are at a point where a single tweet or a single release of information can significantly change the interpretation of what markets look like,” said Michael Green, chief strategist at Simplify Asset Management.

The near universal "WTF" reaction to trump's imposition of tariffs is already causing the WH to reconsider. If you are a businessman trying to make future plans for your biz it has to be frustrating to have such an indecisive prez who the people speaking for him say may change his mind at any time.....................or not.

Once again, leftwingers don't understand negotiation. And this great man is best in the world at it.

Printing money, inflation. Stock market in real terms was worth less after Biden's first year.

So today Trump started the tariffs. Get ready to pay more for everything. And your investments?

Markets PLUNGE As Trump Slaps 25% Tariffs On Neighbors, World Reacts​

You're throwing the white man's numbers around like you understand math.

Stop lying bro.

 

[jknowgood]

You won’t even say what country you’re talking about. It’s just a stream of bullshit coming out of your mouth, just like Trump.

How about china?

I never gained back what I lost. Fluctuated by an average of $5K a month is all.

Yeah..fire your financial advisor.
I lost quite a bit of mine as well.. A LOT more than you did.
And I gained it all back..and then some.

 

[berg80]

Sounds like it might be happening again.

I sold enough gold to pay for a new furnace and A/C a few months and have already almost gained it back.

My assets working for me.

[beagle9]

Wow, I didn't know we did one day tariffs.
I'm sure they'll just jack the tariffs up on China to make up for it.

Jeez...I have NEVER...seen this level of incompetence in an administration..and we're not even 100 days into it yet.

Incompetence is being interpreted by you leftist wrongfully, and it's all because you leftist are being highly resistant, therefore you people are causing the problem's for your fellow Americans instead of it being in the opposite.

Gold ended up $17 points higher today after dropping $20. Looks like a bundle of people took profits and reinvested during the drop plus.

Yes it did.

Like I said, my gold paid for my new furnace and all it had to do is sit in the safe until I took it to the metal dealer. If I see too much gaining in the next few months, I think I'll consider a new roof and maybe a paint job.

And all I have to do is sit here and let time pass.

Precious metals may lose a bit here and a bit there but overall, they are always gaining along with the rate of inflation.

It's called negotiation, idiot. These foreign tariff parasites were content to keep ripping US off with Biden (or whoever was running the country).

They didn't want to adjust back to a time when America was strong and wealthy, but of course they didn't. So yes, they were working with the player's in this country who were making a fortune on low import tariffs here, and then stiffling the competition with higher import tariffs over there. What a freakin set up it all was.
