Nothing else to say - Americans are doing the talking!

Other countries DO NOT have tariffs on the USA. Trump is lying to you.

Gee, when Biden took office you expected him to fix the mess the Trump left overnight. In fact YOU were furious everything took so long. 2 years to fix the border mess and now Trump has fucked it all up again.
just curious canadian, ever hear of the Marshall Plan? Let's see where you go here.
 
Your narrative is literally falling apart by the day, Lucky. Trump went all in on tariffs being effective and it looks like that decision is going to result in much better deals for the US and a serious hit to the economy of our biggest enemy China. So what are you going to come up with for your next talking point?
Criminal Economic Oligarch

China isn't our enemy; Loot & Scoot CEOs appeased them by bribing the Partner Parties to do nothing about these outrageous tariffs in order to continue deporting our jobs. Why should the Chinese refuse fortune cookies from our dominant economic traitors?

And China's economic growth was funded by the outsourcers, who are inferior people in superior positions and can't make a profit except off coolie labor. We let bootlicking Bizz Skule Bozos get ahead in business and blame foreigners for the treason at the top of our management mudpile.
 
Don't want to answer the questions, eh?

Targeted tariffs are different from the blanket tariffs Trump is trying to impose upon the whole world based on his feelings about how America has been done.
 
Uncertainty with the conflicting reports today. Nonetheless, the lower inflation number does suggest that the Fed might cut rates next week as the economy is slowing down. The traders bought on that expectation. If they do not cut rates next week, the market will head lower and even if they cut rates, it probably will head lower because the economy IS slowing down.

Apple and Amazon report tomorrow after the market close and on Friday, the Jobs report comes out. If those are negative, the traders will begin selling on Friday.

Today was a lot of "taking advantage of the uncertainty",

If I am not mistaken, the jobs report was released this am and missed expectations. The negative GDP and jobs report are already priced in.

If/when tax cuts are made permanent, the fed lowers rates and more trade deals are made, the market will flourish. This volatility is like remodeling your home. It is a little inconvenient for a bit, but pays off in the long run.

how?
 
We do have a catalyst virus now, the same as in 2022.

View attachment 1106288

Very convenient that COVID was the catalyst 1.5 years after the COVID hysteria ended. I'll give you a hint as to what actually happened. Biden passed the infrastructure bill in late 2021. 2022 was HORRIBLE for the markets and the economy due to runaway inflation in large part due to infrastructure spending(increased demand for labor and resources) and the increase in the national debt. Inflation finally settled, but the damage was done. We were left with much higher prices that have never gone back down. Biden was like a kid with his dad's credit card. He and his friends had fun for a while, but then the bill came due. That is kind of where we are now. Dad is now attempting to fix the problems caused by his irresponsible son. A little short-term pain is to be expected, but Democrats are like kids who never learned. They were never held responsible for their economic immaturity, therefore, can't comprehend that the fix isn't always easy.

You should take solace in the fact that irresponsible kids are no longer running the show.
 
Independents now oppose Trump by 68 to 32 percent.

Tough election of epic nature coming up next year.

Yes, until the market flourishes, which it will. Many independents are just as ignorant and gullible as the average Democrat and are not immune to falling victim to media hype. That is what is going on now. It is an unfounded freak out.
 
Whatever you see as "fact" is meaningless

It is the people that vote and not the facts.
'Facts' are ignored by the D's, who threw the first punch in our trade war 3 decades ago Lucky

Back then the left called it 'free traitors', these days they're all TDS over it
Tariffs can be very useful. Very helpful. And usually are, when applied by intelligent, thoughful, professionals, in specific places, at smart levels.
yes, hasn't VAT been an ongoing debate since globalization Mac?
What he is doing takes courage
yes Votto

it's an 'America first' policy that will take time, and pain

but all the naysayers are interested in their OWN back pocket

like YOU Lucky

Not the way Trump is going. No, it won't flourish, only crash.

What do you offer?
Back then the left called it 'free traitors', these days they're all TDS over it

Can you prove your allegations?
yes, hasn't VAT been an ongoing debate since globalization Mac?

Explain your view on that
yes Votto

it's an 'America first' policy that will take time, and pain

How much time and how much pain and explain why the end result will be better
but all the naysayers are interested in their OWN back pocket

Show me where the Republicans in charge are not after their own back pockets
like YOU Lucky

Explain then why inflation was higher in other G7 countries and explain why this happened?

Jobs Report is on Friday (always is on the first Friday or every month). Negative GDP was much lower than expected and is why the DOW was down 775 this morning after it came out.

Tax cuts help the rich get richer in much bigger percentage than it helps the poor and middle class.

I have been trading the market for 48 years and volatility is ALWAYS due to uncertainty. Uncertainty is never good for business or the economy. You need dependable supply and demand plus dependable taxes and trading, which causes volatility to go away.
 
The reality s that Americans are speaking what they feel and it is the same situation as with Biden. Whatever you see as "fact" is meaningless, as it was with Biden. It is the people that vote and not the facts.

Live with it, just as you expected the Democrats to "live with it".
The reality is that you don't know what you're talking about, and yes, you need to live with the idea that Trump won, and not a thing you can do about it but learn to cope.
