    Trump announced the tariffs and he seems to want all nations to come to the negotiation table. But USA's biggest rival, China has taken a different position which he did not seem to expect. His tone of language suggests he is surprised now. Some countries like Vietnam have asked for negotiations. But not a lot of them, really, as yet.

    More importantly, China is teaming up with Europe to fight Trump's tariffs by doing things beyond tariffs that the United States can not do and did not expect.

    Scary times for consumers but traders should be happy for the crazy volatility hoping to offset any increasing debt problems as a consumer.

    you sound like @maxinger

    when vol spikes, margin requirements and margin calls go up, traders have less money to trade, most of them will lose money.

    US Treasury Bonds will attract more buyers, because of what Trump is doing.
    Majority of voters don't own stocks, working class lives paycheck to paycheck.
     
  5. Majority of Americans have 401ks, pensions, proft sharing plans, TSA, 529s, etc...

    Just because you are poor and stupid don't think the rest of america is
     
  6. Latin America will benefit I think since manufacturing will shift away from Asia...

    Not a killer

    In 2022, imports of goods and services in the United States amounted to approximately 15.59% of the Gross Domestic Product (GDP)

    Yet… the imports are critical for nearly every aspect of the supply chain.

    For example parts imported to assemble automobiles.

    Do not worry your pretty little head Bubba. We got this. President Donald Trump is in charge. Fall to the back of the line. You are too stupid to realize what is happening and how the US is winning huge on these tariffs. We are just getting started. Poor baby. Your Trump Derangement Syndrome will probably get worst when this so called trade war is over. On the plus side, you have all our no good ET trolls with you to cry and whine with!
