Yeah it’s insane. They are literally going on tv every 20 minutes saying no deals are happening unless countries give up crazy concessions and yet people think differently.
'The Markets' are making a very good argument for why we need to protect Social Security, go back to pensions (and re-re-classify them as debts NOT assets -thanjs Reagan)), and ditch 401Ks -much too risky.
Trumps waiting for all the billionaires to finish purchasing the tanked stock before he taps the brakes on the tarriff threats. Probably with a "see I'm a nice guy" 90 day stall. 🙄
This shows how good the economy should be without all the tariff nonsense. Jumping at any bit of hope for some normalcy. I wouldn’t be shocked if continued leaks of tariff negotiations happen to help the market
It's not even that. Everybody knows the market is going to go down more, but the big players like to push around the smaller ones. They force the price up to trigger stop losses, then let it drop down to where it should be once they're done. Literally the rich robbing the poor.
So follow the money- somebody did it yesterday and now today. Isn’t is illegal, is it insider trading? Or shorting, or just trying to push some out of the markets so the oligarch can own everything?
Seems like there’s a lot of opportunity for insiders to play timing games. In the end, big money will buy in at the low so this whole episode is just a huge wealth transfer from the middle class to the ultra rich.
It Trump touts the ‘unbelievable’ tariff revenue, claiming it’s crucial for funding his tax cuts and even eliminating income tax. Yet, he’s also willing to forfeit that same revenue through negotiations and potential zero-for-zero trade deals, like Musk proposes. It doesn’t add up.
I really don't want to see the market crash even further but as far as I can tell nothing has really changed from last week and now Chinese goods face a 104% tariff. The tariffs go into effect at midnight. I don't get it.
The rich made making money for themselves so easy that they can no longer adapt when making money becomes even the slightest bit challenging. They just keep clinging to lazy assumptions of Trump instead of accepting the dude and his administration is different this time around.
Lol idk why but your reply is hidden for being rude. Yesterday there was a slight bump bc the powers that be were dumb enough to believe some random tweet.
I was reading a WSJ yesterday that was warning people about this-- did they call it a sucker investment? I can't remember. Wish I had saved the article.
It's amazing - all these highly paid financial analysts saying
"Yeah I simply don't believe what's clearly happening right in front of everyone in the world"
Those 1000 points are just those who bought, planning on SELLING when the stock goes up 1000 points. Now watch for another huge profit taking selloff.
This is NOT INVESTING ( the original intention of the stock market). It's just a total QUICK make-a-buck "strategy". No actual INVESTMENTS involved.
Yeah, this is a chart of Nasdaq futures, with volume charted on the bottom. I added the red line which is what volume looks like on a normal non-Trump day. Tons of volume at the open, very little volume throughout the day, and a huge spike at closing(would be off the end of the chart).
And billionaires cash in.
That's what this is. Tank the stock market, buy up stock cheap, bring it up again... then sell, then tank it again, buy up stock cheap, bolster, sell, tank... lather, rinse, repeat.
That's what's happening here.
He'll "pause" the tariffs, then bring in another round.
It's likely the highest the market is going to be until all the dust settles. Wait until the tariff insanity calms down and stock prices stabilize at rock bottom. Then, get back in the market.
in few days will be even bigger crash when retalitory tariffs go in full swing from eu and other countries , and what are those 70 countries who talked about it do they have list ? my presumption is NO , couse its all full of bullshit
There are times I think Wall St is so incredibly stupid. Only a fool would buy at this point. To think Trump would do the right thing is incredibly naive.
The USA is tariffing the entire world. It's going to take a while before there's "a deal", especially since EU apparently cannot offer anything to the USA (his words).
They also saw how it jumped with the last lie spread about a possible pause or relief. Trump probably lie again to someone somewhere to make it jump up again. Tired or the media helping him. Stop believing his lies journalists and do your fucking job.
Yeah no. Unless that deal looked like 104% tariffs on China. 104%. Yep. That means everything from China (aka everything but the soul in your body) is doubling in price. Double. Fucking double.
Here we go again. CEOs and business leaders who are “smarter than everyone and deserve outlandish compensation” are literally waiting for him to ask them to prom because they think he likes them. He wants their fealty period. This stunt is for that and for him to make $$$ with the fluctuation.

I thought that it was just people who bought the dip taking their profits before Stephen Miller went on Fox and tanked the markets again. The same thing will happen tomorrow. It’ll just keep inching downward but the morning is all they need for the “rebound” headlines and some nice profits.
See I think it’s entirely possible he just pivots to getting some stupid concessions only he cares about and declares victory. That’s a very Trump thing for him to do! Not like what he actually says matters to him or his supporters.
The funniest part is that Trump could already have deals with Vietnam and Israel, but he’s set the bar so high for the first deal, no country is going to do it. It’s like a dealership saying the first person to buy a new car pays the most and each successive buyer gets an increasing discount.
i think he told on himself proposing 100% tariffs on china. some portion of investors are going back to their position that this is all an idiotic show
While Trump doesn't understand tarrifs or trade deficits he has long had luck on his side. If Trump wins this trade war it will be incredibly damaging to our future elections, freedoms and govt services. We need to realize this possible outcome.
stock markets are basically run by hysterics, emotionally incontinent people with all the self-possession of a horse spooked by something moving in the hedge
The same wishful thinking that led the Bill Ackmans to believe he'd behave rationally once in office now leads them to believe that big, beautiful trade deals are just around the corner, any minute now.
All trump and company do is lie. If they are saying there is no tariff deal in public there is a decent chance they are telling others in private that there is a deal. The problem is that they lie to everyone so nobody really knows what is going on.
I'm sure you know what's going on. Investors who trade based on their fears, fear of missing out on the bottom for instance, are easy prey for those who can manipulate financial news. And you know who those are.
All it is is talk. No sign of meetings but the talk of saying there is a meeting will make the market go up and Wall St is just being strung along. They all keep thinking there is some good faith effort here.
No fucking way that would be the case if it was Biden doing all of this.

After having made it clear that rich people have no idea what they're doing, how most of them are really dumb people.
And how merit has almost nothing to do with success.
And it isn't because they have tariffs on us, it's because they sell to us, not the otherway around.
Sure they'll "come to negotiate" like Vietnam essentially offering a free trade deal...portrayed as "good for the US" lol.
Which does he moderate on first? Immigration or tariffs? My guess is neither, which dooms this to failure.

They need the markets to rise, briefly, so they can sell.
It'll go down again when they want to buy.
