Congratulations to Donald Trump: Headed into the US afternoon on Friday, he was set to secure braggi
You commented that Trump’s moves were like those of the past weeks came only in “shocks and crises.” For the average Joe or Donna, there have been two crises, so far – the one down AND the one up. Almost everyone is left way underwater. Almost everyone missed the crash turn – and certainly didn’t go uber-short and then finding that bottom – oh-my-God!. Did you carry a full long going up? I am a bear so I couldn’t possibly. Are we going to new highs? No – as tariffs are coming back – that’s what he says. Then what? Bottom line, most lost 4% to 7% and we are all still in a crisis – or a string of them..
Yeah same. I anticipated a s**tshow when I heard the administration was going to call 4/2 “Liberation Day” and went 50% cash. Of course, the other 50% did poorly. But to your point, I missed the bottom and am still sitting on the cash. For the lack of conviction, I’ve been day trading it. . . .
Go Maria.
Agree that Trump will “re-escalate.” He may use market recovery as cover to fire Powell one week from today after market close.
Too soon to cut rates
Says Jay, Cue Truth Social blasts.
Time to buy SPY puts
Speculation is still rampant as well. I would venture we will get a true double-bottom before we get any lasting move up (and we would be lucky at that, what with Captain Capricious at the helm).
Trump’s gonna have a big parade, with millions lined up as he goes through town.
The folks will cheer and sing, and flowers they will bring. You will not see one person wear a frown.
Trump’s limousine will solemnly come rolling. Melania will be smiling there inside.
The cameras from Fox will zoom in on the box, where Trump will lay, full of formaldehyde.
Not a fan of fan fiction, but this may turn me around on that.
Time to check my Nostrodamas tomes and see if I can find the lines that refer to this mass celebration.
