Maybe the plan is that americans wipe out their foreign dept by crushing stock markets and live fish on dry, frankly it is not bad idea if they manage to pull it of before states decide to dump of their bonds they might be rendered to junk value.

Sometimes I think Trump is just strategically stupid. He should have ganged up with the Europeans to bang China but he chose to fck the whole world./

Looks like we’re in for another day of downward trading.

Market just opened 14 minutes ago.



With Oil prices dropping the GCC economies may slow and have a knock on effect on employment for South Asians as well as GCC pledges of trillions to Trump, dashing hopes of FDI saving the US economy.

This looks set to get a lot worse, with second and third order effects creating a doom loop.

I closed my options on Turkey and took some profits, while the rest I've kept in cash for the last three weeks. I plan to make my move after Warren Buffet; in the meantime, I'm updating my list using AI to mine company data to create a solid portfolio. I will maintain two portfolios; one to purchase in a few weeks, and the other to purchase over a longer time frame.

For every seller who is panicking, there is a buyer.

Someone clearly thinks they are picking up bargains.

Apparently, the word in the MAGA crowd is this is a ploy to force China and Japan to dump US debt.

I am at loss of explanation. When stocks are getting butchered why will anyone.... SELL BONDS??????

@Mista Any clue?

Price like this, you want to buy bond, the longer term the better...Selling bond to a lost is like getting someone to cash a winning lottery ticket and taking 50% off because you hate to collect structural payment.

But then the same people who said this also said "This is a course adjustment" and "Better to get lower interest rate" well, in this case, it would be interest rate we have to worry about, it will be who are we going to sell to when we have tariff all over the world..

The better question is.

Would you buy US stock right now? Or in the future, and if in the future, when is this future going to be?

Brokers do not necessarily have immediate buyers for sellers, else prices would react differently

Yes that's the strategy

It's become they want the dollars to be put to use and in circulation rather than held
It's seen as unutilised money

It also kind of reduces their leverage on the USA, as the USA has the obligation to them

I think that's the logic, even In the UK government will attack unutilised savings to force expenditure, not exactly the same I guess

then they should dump all dollars and create havoc in usa, time is off essence if they let it bleed slowly then usa will absorb those and will manage to reinvest them in domestic projects.
