Let Canada keep their 200%+ tariffs? Let Uncle Sam continue to be Uncle Sucker on trade?
the same market that was propped up during Biden
what can be propped up can be dropped down — by the same manipulators
In the short run tariffs can be rough. In the long run this move will make the country stronger.
So, in the short run traders will move out - in the long run when things bottom out a little - they’ll jump back in.
Also, Rand must truly hate this country and has no understanding of Tariffs long term effects.
First, since Trump started the tariffs over a trillion dollars of investment is coming to the country. 200 billion chip manufacturing plant in AZ that we need to secure our country from external threats. 100s of billions of dollars in new car manufacturing all over the US. Apple investing 500 billion in new plants to make iPhone in America. 500 billion in AI manufacturing for power plants, facilities, and support.
The list goes on, tariffs are bringing in trillions of dollars in investments. No, it does not happen in five weeks. Rand is playing on weak minds.
Where was Rand when all these corrupt politicians were looting the taxpayers of hundreds of billions? Was he in on the kickbacks? Or was unable to see what was going on right under his nose?
That he is a fiscal hawk, unless his big money donors might have to change their investment strategy? Then it’s status quo, boys.
“The stock market is comprised of millions of people who are simultaneously trading.”

Most market activity is driven by institutional investors and computerized trading systems that account for a large portion of trading volume.
Rand needs to stick with what he knows.
Paul is proving he’s too much of coward to make the necessary changes Trump is making to solve of the country’s long term problems.
Rand is losing a lot of credibility imo. He is ranting against tariffs but refuses to discuss the wildly unfair tariffs Canada is imposing on us. To be against only American tariffs and allow another country to do it to us is a traitorous behavior.
He keeps this up and it will show him to be more in favor of Canada and their economy than ours. This is making me begin to wonder what Rand is hiding.
Rand needs to shut up.
He’s dead wrong and he’s putting Wall Street ahead of Main Street.
Rand is not a finance and economics expert. Sorry
In fact doctors are notorious for screwing up admin and finances. Look at the state of health care and hospitals
Pshaw
Rand needs to shut the hell up,cand get 9n board or get run over. Libertarians have NO idea how three real world works. HIS name is now mud around here.
If you jumped in after New Year’s and didn’t get out in time, yeah, you’re a little screwed if you need the money now. If you’ve held since this time last year, you should still be up about 40%. Over the last 15 years, I’ve averaged 24% per year. 19% per year doubles your money every 4.
Trump recently posted a message referencing another Kentuckian, not named Rand or Mitch.
Trump:
Thank you to the House Freedom Caucus for just delivering a big blow to the Radical Left Democrats and their desire to raise Taxes and SHUT OUR COUNTRY DOWN! They hate America and all it stands for. That’s why they allowed MILLIONS of Criminals to invade our Nation. Sometimes it takes great courage to do the right thing. Congressman Thomas Massie, of beautiful Kentucky, is an automatic “NO” vote on just about everything, despite the fact that he has always voted for Continuing Resolutions in the past. HE SHOULD BE PRIMARIED, and I will lead the charge against him. He’s just another GRANDSTANDER, who’s too much trouble, and not worth the fight. He reminds me of Liz Chaney before her historic, record breaking fall (loss!). The people of Kentucky won’t stand for it, just watch. DO I HAVE ANY TAKERS??? Anyway, thank you again to the House Freedom Caucus for your very important vote. We need to buy some time in order to MAKE AMERICA GREAT AGAIN, GREATER THAN EVER BEFORE. Unite and Win!!!
Maybe we’ll wait a day or two to see if Rand gets a message.
And President Trump has a message for Rand:
Shut-up, sit-down and watch how he fixes the problem!!
The dude has been solid in a lot of things for a lot of years, though. People wanting to throw him under the bus or off the cliff over this one position are going to have a hard time finding anyone who meets all their purity tests.
The stock market is different things to different participants.
It not much more than a parking lot for BIG money.
If it is BIG money which is now moving the market, then eventually it will have to be parked somewhere else.
Where is that going to be?
As bad as the economy was under the illegitimate Biden regime, there weren’t really many better places to put money than the US.
Inflated stock market. Like everything else
Consumers and suppliers always bear the costs of taxes or tariffs.
The Consumers will be American citizens no matter the style of tax.
The only question is:
Which Suppliers will be harmed by a tax?
In the case of a tariff, the supplier is a foreigner.
Better to tax and harm the foreign supplier than the American supplier.
Simple.
And EVERYONE else does it against us. Trump is merely in the process of returning the favor.
