It's really hard to fathom the level of retardation that is required to vote someone in based on reacting to high (but falling) inflation, and then supporting this idiot as he goes about implementing

It isn't difficult; they are just that stupid...

Also, can we just laugh at the absurdity of Trump claiming to be some master deal-maker and then revealing that the primary tool in his tool-kit is threatening his allies with economic violence? Are w

Not a fan of the blanket tariffs. Should have been targeted tariffs. 

 

It's all just a negotiating tactic. All of you hate Trump so of course every comment/article quoted has a negative spin.

 

I guess if he calls them "transitory tariffs" you guys will all agree.

Derp.

He's halfway there. He recognizes it's a bad idea, he's just rationalizing it as a negotiating tactic and not a complete fuck up.

Jerome Powell, federal reserve chairman, just said that Trump's tariffs will cause slower growth and higher inflation.  That's code for stagflation which is an economic and political disaster.  We arn't there yet, but it's the trendline.

 

The paradox of stagflation is that the federal reserve would need to cut interest rates to spur growth and also raise interest rates to curb inflation,

Nintendo said on Friday that pre-orders for the company’s hotly anticipated Switch 2 console would be delayed while the company considers the impact of tariffs.

 

“Pre-orders for Nintendo Switch 2 in the U.S. will not start April 9, 2025 in order to assess the potential impact of tariffs and evolving market conditions,” a Nintendo representative told CNBC.

Wish I sold more stock. Nice little discount to buy already.

 

Don't waste your hard earned $$$ son!  Wait to buy when OTH tells you to buy!  Just like he did in the Covid thread, when OTH called the bottom!  

 

Jamal's response when I made the Covid bottom call:  "I doubt it"

 

Lesson #1, never doubt OTH when he makes a market call!  Why?  Because...

I definitely lost out on some gains waiting longer. Didn't say I was buying. Just that it would already work. 

 

Trump presidencies are the best for breaking rules.

Hell it's always a good time to buy, you know that. lol @OILERMAN  This is like an old ass KMart Blue Light Special going on right now!  Even if it goes on for years like it did after 1929, ABB! (always be buying!)

At this point, it doesn't matter whether Trump's tariffs are implemented or simply a negotiating tactic.    His chaotic and unpredictable on-again/off-again handling of the situation has already had a direct and profound negative impact on the US economy and the world economy as a whole.

 

We have a sitting POTUS who is deliberately crashing the country's economy in a personal power trip to satisfy his own ego.... so he can rejoice in how incredibly powerful and important he is.   

 

The fact that any American actually supports this shit is utterly unfathomable.

The tariffs are still  in place and it's only day 2.  What makes you think we are anywhere near a bottom?

 

This is what dumbass Trump and his MAGA voters have given us.
