You won’t like this….just sayin’

Oil would spike and China would be pissed. China is their ally and would never let them close it for any length of time. This is all just tough talk
Your assessment is neat and all, but markets work off of risk. And prices go up quickly and fall slowly.
 
That’s a lot to unpack!! But again, it seems negative
That depends on perspective. People losing wealth could be pissed for the rest of their increasingly miserable lives. People gaining wealth because they don't have so much of it taken by a parasite class could have a swell time, until it's their turn to fall down the ladder, around the year 2100. The next class rising then could be farmers.

Oil is contradicting your thesis right now. It’s taking the elevator down, not the stairs
 
You might be right….but I doubt it. No one was this bearish before the depression. Everyone was euphoric. All I hear now is negative sentiment. My guess is the market roars in the second half of the year after everyone forgets about tariffs.

This reminds me of the Japanese Yen carry trade that blew up a few years ago. Everyone said it was gonna cause the entire economy to collapse. Two months later everyone forgot what it even was. Lol

And how does it make you pay higher taxes? And how does this automatically mean global recession? There are a lot of moving parts to the economy. I really think EVERYONE is overreacting. I’ll give it to Trump. He knows how to keep everyone focused on him at all times.
I’m sticking with this post from April 4th.
 
You don't care about oil prices

You care about your dear leader
Nah, he’s too much of a goofball. It’s too much like watching WWE wrestling with him.

I just think everyone overreacts with anything he does.

There was supposed to be a Great Depression because of tariffs….Wrong

There was supposed to be World War III because he bombed Iran…Wrong

Now I’m waiting on the next “Awful thing” he does that everyone will freak out about, and then turns into a nothing burger.

Fucking tool here comes every few days cherry picking his data in support of trump. No matter what anyone says, he will end saying everything is rosy and trump isn’t a problem - it’s everyone else’s perception of him that is wrong. GTFOH.

What’s not Rosey? Things are going pretty good to be honest. The negativity and “world is ending” thoughts are just all in your head. Chill out

If Biden was in office, I’d say the same thing. Life is good man. You need to relax with your self induced “everything sucks” mentality
 
But ya didn’t. You didn’t come here telling anyone how good life was under Biden which makes you a lying hypocrite.
You’re a very hostile person I can tell. Maybe it’s just when you’re online. If someone doesn’t post something, they’re a liar? Weird

I actually didn’t mind Biden. He did ok I thought. We all survived.
 
Time. A day or week doesn't make a trend in the economy. The full effect of the tariffs won't be felt for another quarter or two AND once a real trade and tariff program has been established. Currently we are seeing a tariff program that is manic/depressive being on one day and off another. That isn't a trade program. The amount of tariffs will also play a factor. Until some of the on again off again trade practices are settled there isn't much to argue.

Stabiliy is what investors are looking for not whipsaw commentary from an emotional outburst. Facts are also a good thing rather than a knee-jerk commentary about the success of a bombing campaign.

Watching the bond and foreign exchange gives more of a barometer than the price of oil. Powell did the right thing to wait out before doing any rate cutting. If the market is so robust, why do we need a rate cut?
 
So far the effects of the tariffs have resulted in no changes in my life. I gave it a couple months and I understand that the future is uncertain. Same as it ever was.

Gas prices have dropped a little, which is nice. I'm still braced for Cthulhu though.

HIs actions didn't freak out the market.
Israel's actions did.

Now democrats don’t like Jews all of the sudden. What’s up with that? Where did that come from? How did the party change so much so quickly?

I never said anything about liking or disliking jews.

It seems to be a theme now. The next “current thing” is hating Israel and loving Palestine and Iran. That’s become the democrat narrative lately. Super weird how that became a thing.

Is it? It seems more prevalent in one party now.

Democrats: You can’t be racist or hate on gay people….but Israel, they’re fair game! We fly Palestinian flags now

DonOld fucks the common MAGAts in the ass and they don’t react at all, so…

😑

🙄

Um, TACO caved on the tariffs and a “Great Depression” related to DonOld’s disruptive policies could still be coming - it’s only been a few months since the "Liberation Day" chaos / turmoil, and the economy is really struggling.

😑

There was supposed to be World War III because he bombed Iran…Wrong

🙄

Iran will likely rush ahead and successfully build a nuclear weapons stockpile with the FOUR HUNDRED KILOGRAMS (eight hundred fifty pounds) of missing enriched uranium, as DonOld seems inclined to not finish the job - and to stop Israel from finishing the job. That may well lead to WWIII. If regime change doesn’t happen in fairly short order, a nuclear armed Iran is almost guaranteed.

Awful THINGS (plural)

And it will only be a nothing burger to "some people" (racists, fascists, sociopaths, etc)

Hope that ^ helps.

I love how inclusive this community is 😆. Immediately attacking a different point of view and then refusing to even discuss it.

“The economy is really struggling”

Says who? Markets are hitting new all time highs, the employment numbers look great. That’s why the fed won’t lower rates. Things are too good to give them a reason to lower rates. They only lower rates when things are bad.


“DonOld seems inclined to not finish the job”

- First, it’s “we shouldn’t be bombing Iran. Stay out of it! You’re gonna start WWIII”
-Then the bombing ends the shortest war ever and now it’s , “he won’t bomb them more and finish the job”. What?!?!
-Iran is done for a while. They kind of ran out of stuff (launchers, missiles, people) I’m sure they’ll be back one day and we’ll do this all over again, but it won’t be for a while.

I hate to break it to you all, but the death, destruction, chaos you all seem to want aren’t going to happen. We’re all going to make it for the next 4 years. Turn on your news feeds and go outside.
