you are a brilliant genius, that is for sure.
markets tanked on tariff announcement. bonds skyrocketed. Dollar collapsed. gold soared
trump says "never mind!" assets recover a little bit
you take the recovery as proof that Trump's tariff announcements are well received.
I don't know how to help someone so brilliant
He said never mind and yet we are still here with Tariffs on all nations - He got hte market to accept a 10% baseline and massive tariffs on the largest manufacturing HUB int he world and their affiliates.
BRILLIANT!

yes and the nasdaq is down 16% YTD despite the fact that we are about to enter a golden age
Posturing - I don't blame them for doing it.

True. Dollar is down 9% this year, so need to at least ask for $11k to cover that.

as you said earlier... markets are forward looking. you tell me what it means
A bumpy few quarters as I've said repeatedly.
I'll look forward to your crow eating in the future.

you never give any specifics of what the golden age will look like so yet another moment for you to claim you're right no matter what happens
im sure the market will surge as trump carves out further exceptions and the fed starts pumping in stimulus.
as of now, the markets are showing confidence in the trump plan
but please offer specifics of what Q1 2026 will look like
I told you to eat crow earlier on in the electioncycle but you refused to do so.
Its the same now. You are wrong now but you just dont' see it yet.
You see him 'backing off' but what really was done was setup the CCP to look even more like the bad actor and build stronger relationships with our reliable trading partners. Can't help it that you don't see it.
I ate crow on that one - Even the best get things wrong.

No one doubts manufacturing shifting to US if you levy historical tariffs on imports. How much will the price of cars increase? How many jobs will this create? How many jobs will this destroy?
You’re too focused on one side of the scales that it’s hard to take you seriously.

If memory serves thethe sided with the port union who opposed automation bc it would threaten their jobs
His focus is entirely keeping us in the 20th century rather than advancing us forward.
