Interesting how just the threat of tarriffs gets the attention of the targeted countries.

If Trump eliminates the tariffs, US inflation will fall, people will buy US goods with US dollars less, and the banks will cut rates more.

It reduces the chance for a trade war, which is less inflationary, which will increase the likelihood of rate cuts. It also creates more certainty (less volatility) and the USD is a safe haven. Both factors are bad for the value of the USD. Trump needs a weak Dollar to incentivice more investments into the US for his MAGA strategy. Just my 2 cents.

As per his last term though:

He makes hyperbolic statements re his diplomatic prowess. Then later you hear the other side's story, and it's total bollocks.

He's an egomaniac. His egomania might get things bullish for a few months... but it won't last. Silly man.

You can't humiliate Chinese leadership. They would rather die than lose face.

About 1/2 of Co-POTUS Musk's EVs are made at a factory in China. Tariffs were never going to be as hard as Trump's rhetoric suggested.

And because the market have already pricing in a 40-100% tax on all product from china ( who is good for the DXY) and now when is say the "call was good" is nothing means that we are not going to have that degree of hike taxe which is the reason for the drop of the DXY

Here's what people ain't talking about with the tariff, first it'll do more harm than good to the US, first it'll help accelerate, the reliance of other countries on US and US technologies, other countries will start looking for alternatives, and they'll start developing their own technology relying less on the US, guess what suffers next, USD as a reserve currency etc, all put together will weaken the US grip on the global economy.
