Agreed. All countries should do away with them, right?

If other countries want to make inefficient economic decisions, that's on them.

Why do we want to copy their inferior model?

Actually its at the price it was at last June. It got to that price because Joe Biden dumped billions of dollars into chip companies to prop up the market during his spending spree and record high inflation. Everything will be fine. Real traders made a killing this morning. I made 6k in 30 minutes.


Keep moving the goalposts. Last week it was the stock market was the same as it was in November. Don't sweat. Now, same as June. We keep backing up and this is a good thing?

The point sailed way over your head. The stated goal of the tariffs you are melting over is to eliminate all tariffs. You refuse to acknowledge that. Any point you are trying to make really just boils down to OMB. If that wasn’t the case you would have answered the question. You didn’t. Thus the “that’s what I thought.”

Whether it will work or not, the Trump tariffs are meant to end all tariffs. It is a negotiating tool. You know that.

Actually the stock market shot to the moon and made record highs from the time Trump took office till the last month. It is going to drop when people take profit. People take profit by selling. You don't really know how any of this actually works do you? NQ was down to 18720 this morning. Its currently at 18969 so its up $249 from the panic after hedge funds moved the market.

How exactly are all these counties going to retaliate against the world’s largest economy that their own economy relies on to buy their products to keep from crashing? The world really really needs the US to buy their products, far more than we need them to buy ours considering the gargantuan trade deficit we’ve had for the past 50 years.

Plus, why even retaliate? Like I said, it won’t help them. And they don’t really have much in the way of retaliatory actions that would do anything. They need us far more than we need them. What will help them though is if they drop their tariffs as some countries are already doing.

I somewhat believed that until yesterday, when the admin did not post reciprocal tariffs.

Now it's uncertain what the actual strategy is, or how we get there.

Most countries are too poor to fix what Trump's admin was bitching about yesterday.

Money is neither made or lost in the market until stocks are sold. Unless you are determined to sell a loser today, you've lost nothing.
If you're close to retirement and you're not in a well balanced portfolio of investments, including bonds, CDs, real estate, etc. shame on you.

Because you, and others, are doing exactly that. If my language offends you, get over it.

Trumps economic strategy is aimed at reversing this.

Do you know what that strategy is? It's having the government artificially inflate the prices of imports to try to coerce the American consumer to buy domestic products again.

Why does the American consumer need to be coerced into buying American products? Why don't we do it just because it's in our own best interests?


Your perspective is skewed and you haven't listened to the explanations in favor for Trump's plan. Its not about coercing Americans, its simply telling corporations and ither countries if they want to access the American market, they will either pay the tariff or manufacture their product here.

His tariffs on Canada were based on lies to create a "national emergency"

Trump is geting closer to FDR than JFK.

I’m not sure you know what you’re talking about here. Why are you using the E-minis instead of the actual Nasdaq and then defining change in dollars instead of points

Been predicted long before Trump due to the AI bubble which finally got popped by Deepseak. Welcome to stocks though.

if the EU decides to escalate, we need to pull out of NATO without warning.

They are not worthy of sovereignty, continent of pussies and degenerates. If someone occupies them, who fricking cares as long as US economic interests are respected

What are you talking about E-minis? E-mini is just the contract, it has nothing to do with price. I use futures price because that is what I trade. The actual nasdaq moves exactly the same. The actual nasdaq went down to 16606 and at the time of my post was at 16809. The average regular trader cant trade stocks after hours like hedge funds do. They can trade futures 23/5. At 5pm yesterday is when the futures market opened.
