People buying and selling stocks are smarter than “the media”
So why is the word melting down over a measly $300 billion?

Trump haters, the Trump Derangement Syndrome has infected our media, the EU, Canada, and many others who bought into senile Joe’s narrative.
There is no sense of proportion all of this hysteria. And it’s hysteria on a global scale.

Yep, he’s right on this one.

“ Over the last few days, I’ve been part of an extraordinarily small contingency of people not freaking out and losing their minds over President Trump’s new tariff plan or the ensuing stock market pullback.
A couple of days ago, I argued that the media shrieking hysterically about how the world was ending as a result of this trade policy was nothing more than a visceral reaction to what was happening in the stock market. It had to be. With just hours having passed since the implementation of Trump’s tariff policy, there was no real way to judge its success based on the merits.
Said another way, these things take time.
In an article late last week, I criticized Wharton PhD Jeremy Siegel—whose actual title is probably some bullshit with the word “emeritus” next to it—for coming out and declaring Trump’s tariff policy to be the worst policy decision in 95 years.
My argument wasn’t that he was wrong—only that it was too soon to make such a declaration.
Siegel was on CNBC again Monday this week. He started his interview by alluding to the idea that the Federal Reserve has room to cut interest rates—similar to the way he lobbied for an emergency rate cut back in August of last year. As the interview progressed, the stock market started to spike upwards on what we now know was a discredited headline about a 90-day pause in tariffs—and on live television, within the course of the five-minute interview window, Siegel had changed his tone, backing off his rhetoric and calling the now-debunked headline “terrific.”….

Good observation, the “ old media” will never give President Trump’s multi pronged “ fix” a chance. That said, the world’s currencies are melting down ( appalling loss of purchasing power), we are in historic times and President Trump is the perfect one to take care of Americans first.
Thanks n00b!
You are likely a dotted retread poster, here 3 weeks and butthurt.
Media also told us that Hydroxychloroquine was ineffective.

No wonder! In 2018 when bitcoin was less than $5 you were trashing it.
How many subscribers did you lose over that bad call?

In 2014 he predicted that there would be a world financial collapse would occur in 2015.
July 2024 he predicted US cIvil unrest/WAR to happen just before the 2024 elections.
November 2024 he predicted a US civil war would happen the week of Trump’s inauguration with the US breaking up into four new countries in 2026.
December 2024 he said via Socrates that the 2024 elections would be the last in the US.
January 2025 he predicted US civil unrest on May 7.

Shouldn’t you be telling us a Ukraine vidtory is just around the corner?
“ This is the very same political scheme they used in 1932 to blame tariffs on Hoover”
The public is not as believing now as they were in 1932. There was no alternative media, and people believed the news liars. Hell they voted for FDR for THREE terms and believed he could walk. ( Some thought on water 👀)
I think she’s TeslaGator with a new account.
whoops maybe not.
2008 all over again?
My son’s been telling me for over a year now that if Trump won, the powers that be will crash the economy on him to blame it on him. He figured it would happen by the end of this summer at the latest.
