Wholly crap, stock market is going NUTS

[Lesh]

The primary justifications for reciprocal tariffs is the claim that other countries are ripping us off. Trump repeated this so often the public is excepting it on blind faith. If anyone is getting ripped off, it’s definitely not the United States. As our trade has expanded, all countries have gained, but none has benefited more than the United States.

According to the World Bank, comprehensive wealth per capita in the United States has increased by 22% since 1995, indicating
a significant rise in overall wealth, greater than any of our major trading partners.

Contrary to Trump's claims of increasing tariffs on US exports, the average tariff is down by 2/3 over the last 20 years.

Other Countries Are Not Ripping Us off on Trade

One of the justifications for reciprocal tariffs is the claim that other countries are ripping us off. If anyone is getting ripped off, it’s definitely not the United States. As trade has expanded, all countries have gained, but none has benefited more than the United States. Measured in...

What tariffs there are on American products don’t cost the average person shit.

If it was pre-planned, the name for that is Market Manipulation by the Federal Government. It may be interesting to see which elected MAGA Leaders and insiders sold before pre-planned fall you suggest and when they buy back in.

And there ya go folks!
Another episode of lefties loosing it

 

[Rambunctious]

Still down 5% or so for the year.

More like 8 or 9% from the irrational peaks in February.

This isn't "brilliance".

Hell, it's not even adequacy.

Its not going to stop rising Crepitus .... when China swallows their pride the Dow will reach 50,000...

 

[ChemEngineer]

And there ya go folks!
Another episode of lefties (White6) losing it

Some "moderator". Not remotely moderate.

 

[Mashmont]

And tomorrow or the next day it will go down again. Nothing has been solved.

What has been solved is will now pay no tariffs to a whole bunch of nations, and we have China pinned to the floor.

Totally agree. I'm sure the insider trading will be totally off the cuff.

 

[White 6]

Totally agree.

I would like to be wrong on this, and it be simple stupidity on Donny's but, it looks like a planned opportunistic hit. Even the trumpies think it was a plan. If it was part of the plan, than the plan was an intentional hit on 62% of the tax payers of this country and the vast majority are not in the top 5%, multimillionaire/ multibillionaire class. So it was either a really stupid thing to do, or a really shitty thing to do.

But, are you not entertained?

(This is a shit show)

 

[TemplarKormac]

Urgh. The spin on both sides is hard to watch.

 

[White 6]

But, are you not entertained?

(This is a shit show)

Yes. It is entertaining, but probably just because the snapshot on my funds was earlier last month, and I did ok, and could not actually lose principal even then, only possible profit.

 

[conserveguy877]

The uncertainty is bad. Drives volatility.

Up today, at least for now.

Because tRump blinked.

What about China?

And futures down 2% this morning.

 

[CrazyTrader55]

OMG the MSM is lying, shocker. Trump forces the world to bow at his feet, and when they do and he agrees to negotiate Dems say he caved, riiiiiight.

Exactly. If Trump cured cancer the MSM would spin it that Trump hates doctors and put all of them out of business.

Trump cut cancer research funding, however.

Democrat hatred is deep, wide, and extremely destructive for everyone, including of course the Democrats.
