Plain and simple. These tariffs will never be imposed, and this is a signal from Donald Trump to his allies to buy the dip that he just created.

This is completely manufactured, just consider the date.

It China trying to play hard ball and the Trump administration calling their bluff.

China can’t afford these tariffs to stick. They also can’t afford to keep having the threat of tarrifs imposed. Potential customers will take their business to other Asian markets that are less tariff volatile……

Yes there is pain for US consumers but there is more pain for Chinese manufacturing.

You’re right!

Trump the mastermind decided to nuke all of the good vibes from the ME peace deal so he could make his billionaire friends some extra cash by asking Xi to do him a solid and block all REs from the world…so he could tweet something that would cause everything to crash. Then his billionaire bros that knew this was coming could load up NVDA at a 15% bargain.

Because he obviously puts a lot of forethought into his tweets. Were you not on the text thread?

Yep. But when is that dip going to end - that is the question. Who gets the alerts on when he will reverse course?

Will it be Tuesday?

Correct. The insider trading is rampant and unchecked by Trumps SEC. MAGA decided a long time ago, they don’t care.

Sure, but who can absorb the pain better? Their people have no choice in the matter, so they will bear it.

Our people do have a say, and we have no stomach for pain nor system for helping us through it.

So tell me how Trump can win.

The S&P 500 is up 10 fold since March 9 2009, which was the bottom and the exact date that Quantitative Easing officially began (actually started a few months earlier with mortgage backed securities). That incredible 10 fold rise in 16 years was, of course, only possible because the US Federal Reserve undertook two massive bouts of debt monetization. Otherwise, the markets would have languished for decades like they did after 1929.


During those 16 years of unprecedented bull markets, despite plenty of social/political turmoil, there have been very few meaningful dips and those were always short lived because everyone knows that the Fed has their back. The relevant point here is that if the Fed governors and their masters ever decide, for whatever reason, to end the insanity and refuse to monetize more debt in the face of a sharp economic contraction, millions of "greater fools" will buy the dips into oblivion. That's the quandary of investing in an era of perpetual manipulation; when might it end?

As an addendum, the return on the S&P during this QE era has been about 16% compounded annually for those 16 years. The fact that "Risk Free" interest rates have been a small fraction of that 16% annual return makes this whole thing nonsensical in financial terms. The risk premium for holding a broad market index like the S&P 500 since 2009 has been unprecedented. But, I guess during a period when we have actually seen negative yields on govt bonds around the world and interest rates (well out the curve) below inflation for years on end, financial nonsense is par for the course.
