Yes , Liberation Day to U -Turn Day in a week .

He bottled it , his credibility is now in question . He’s become weaker because of this U - turn , the markets make policy not political leaders .

The tax cut revenue is now in question . Also remember there’s still 10% tariffs across the board .

I didn't know the pause would have that impact, really? such blatant insider trading.

90 day pause!

Oh, okay. No 90 day pause!

Trump probably winced at seeing the stock market drop consistently in relation to his dumbass tariff moves. But what really spooked him was the crazy moves in global credit Wednesday. This is why he has squelched the "reciprocal" tariff bs. Stocks will go down and up, but you can't break the bond market.

You guys are pure clowns if you're that fuckig stupid to think that this is about negotiations. There is nothing to negotiate!!! This guy is a fucking moron, a bully and a psycho. Everyone else is trying to act like a grownup and not destroy so many people's livelihoods. What the fuck is it so hard for you to understand the this guy is not right in the head.
There are 1000 other ways to negotiate if that's what you want. You don't destroy the world's economy and then negotiate.
This is a clown show, pure and simple.

The "90 day pause" is to allow for negotiations. If a country hasn't completed negotiations by 90 days then it's game on again. The pause has nothing to do with losing credibility or people "in the know" making money in the market. Anyone with an actual brain understands by now that there is so much attention being placed on anyone related to Trump that everyone in his inner circle knows they wouldn't be able to get away with anything that looks like trading on inside information even if what they did was legal? Some of you are...
Anyone with a brain would have given a 90 day window for negotiation first instead of imposing it and then flip flop due to the market's adverse reaction. Nice try to spin the facts. lol
As for insider trading, just look into MJT's funds transfered into T bonds just before the mayhem.

You have just found some coincidences after the flip flop and act like you knew the flip was going to happen and the fibo was going to line up. Fact is you didn't know sh t like everyone else.

Oh please , don’t try that narrative . Many countries were making concessions well in advance of the tariffs and they were brushed aside .

It was the US administration that folded due to the market response . Let’s leave it at that . I always try to be fair with my commentary .

…..and therein lies the root of this issue .

Well said, absolutely nailed it .

The US enabled China to become the 2nd global superpower via its outsourcing . China quietly went about a transformation, from a poor backward nation to the greatest exporting nation the world has ever seen . The CCP has changed the lives of most impoverished Chinese to that of a level resembling some countries in the West . Whilst the US was too busy vying for geopolitical supremacy and dominance through military strength , the Chinese quietly went about their business of building economic relations and strength through alliances .

If the US wants someone to blame , look right in the mirror . I’ll say it again, this didn’t happen on Trumps watch , and they’re trying to square the circle and wrestle back some of the competitiveness from the application of tariffs . That ship may have sailed though .

Maybe you can look past your nose and see that China's exports to the world were 3577.22 billions in 2024. It's exports to US were only a fraction of that number. https://www.statista.com/statistics/...ds-from-china/ China still has the world market at it's disposal even if a whiny bankrupt one wants to leave and get the same stuff for cheaper somewhere else (good luck).

I doubt you with your self proclaimed economic background were even aware of those numbers since you think US is the centre of the universe.

Additionally, China didn't export stuff to US by holding a gun to US's head. US, begged for those products because they are unable to produce them because of low talent, no factories and high cost of production even if they could. If US wants to go produce the items, who is stopping it? Go produce and consume them yourselves.
Needless to say, the tariff war is not about China alone. It's US vs. the world in case you with your sharp economic mind didn't take notice of that detail.

Americans rely on China much more than vice versa.
It's the American consumers that are going to suffer because America imports essentially 3 to 4 times the amounts of goods from China.

Also, the Chinese have other ways of protecting their economy, including, for example, boosting domestic consumption, hidden subsidies, currency manipulation.....

Americans got fucked by the Fackface Baron, and there are still MAGA morons here who cheer for the psycho!

I really shouldn’t have to spell it out for you , but here goes :

The market was selling off fast and hard , bond yields going through the roof . US raising Chinese reciprocal tariffs on a daily basis , China matching the US tariffs in an all out trade war .

Then as Trump folded due to market pressure and extreme volatility, China not buckling as intended, he knew he had no option but to ease back , using the words “ temporary pause “ , to save face .

Is that clear enough for you why the short covering rally occurred . It was risk off for a while . Let’s see if it’s only temporary .

Ask yourself how the tax cuts are achieved without the revenue .

Explain to us Trump's logic:
Trade deficit = being ripped off
Tariffs = leverage

Answer: The US. China will implode without the US buying $438 billion in product from them. The Chinese Communist Party will disappear if billions of China's people rise up and trample them because the CCP makes the mistake of starving their people.

There are over 80 countries at the negotiating table who cannot wait to take market share from China and the longer the CCP plays their game the more market share they lose.

Oh, and let's not forget that ALL Chinese listings on the US stock markets will be de-listed. That's billions and billions more damage to China's leaders.

This the current condition of maga

The phrase "tying themselves into a knott" (or "tie oneself in knots") is an informal idiom that means to become very confused, upset, or anxious, often because of trying to explain something poorly or overthinking a situation.
Here's a more detailed explanation:
Meaning:
The idiom "tie oneself in knots" suggests a state of mental entanglement or confusion, similar to a tangled rope or cord.

{quote}Why is the US bankrupt?
On the verge of bankrupcy.

You don't google much do you? Stuck in your closet?

Here's a breakdown of the situation:
Growing National Debt:
The US has accumulated a substantial national debt, which has been exacerbated by factors like the COVID-19 pandemic and ongoing government spending.
Rising Interest Payments:
As the debt grows, so do the interest payments the government must make, potentially diverting funds from other crucial areas like infrastructure, education, and healthcare.
Trade Deficit:
The US has a large trade deficit, meaning it imports more goods and services than it exports, which contributes to the overall debt.
Concerns about Financial Instability:
US could face a financial crisis if the debt and interest payments continue to rise unchecked, potentially leading to a devaluation of the dollar.

I didn’t say they were more powerful ( your words) , I said 2nd global superpower enabled via previous US administrations policies . China like most countries play fast and loose with their currency and their tariffs.

All countries, do the same , the US has abused the dollar , it being the fiat currency for decades . Let’s not be naive or gullible here .


I’m not saying what the US is trying to address is wrong , it’s their methodology that’s wrong . This administration lacks business acumen and diplomacy and chooses a “ tough handed “ approach .
