US Political News and Trump’s China visit

buy the dip

What dip? At present, there’s no dip—the market is in free fall. As I mentioned in my post, stock valuations will need to be recalculated.

Bhai, clever traders shorting it all the way to the bank.. this is the Trump admin, Fink and the rest gave him billions

follow the money

In simple terms, he's trying to shore up the fundamentals of the US' economy

short term pain, long term gain

that's his idea anyway

stem the rot type thing.

remains to be seen if he can steer the ship away from danger and into safety, but he's trying.

As I mentioned, I’m a long-term investor. However, once in a while, I do short stocks, but only my own. For example, if I notice a stock has risen too high and I believe it’s likely to drop, I might sell it with the intention of buying it back at a lower price. While this is similar to shorting, it’s always limited to my own stocks. Shorting stocks is a very high-risk strategy, and it’s not for me. I’m a conservative investor.

Having sold my entire portfolio, I’m eager to buy back all my stocks. However, in the current market conditions, preserving my investment remains the top priority.

Most leading stock market analysts and investors agree that Trump's trade war with the entire world is a disaster, and I share their belief. I have yet to encounter anyone who can articulate how Trump's policies might lead to success. All I hear is vague advice to 'have patience' and endure some pain because things will supposedly improve. But no one in their right mind would risk their hard-earned money based on such uncertain assurances.

I've dabbled some in it too, tough stuff, best to just hold on to long term safe ones.

Don't think Trump is crashing the US economy but, he makes some very common sense points about manufacturing being outsourced almost entirely, you need blue collar jobs.

Only high end prestige stuff is "made in the USA" anymore, for everything else there's China lol

I'm not making a case for Trump's policy here, just stating why he doing this.

I'd buy US defence and auto rn

Steve Rattner: The U.S. is the loser in Trump’s tariff war

 

[Sharma Ji]

Trump, in a sense, is not very different from Bernie on some of his economic populism.

Which is why many Bernie guys voted for him back in 15-16

that's what they say anyway.. your thoughts @RabzonKhan mian ?

Manufacturing low-cost, low-intensity items like socks and underwear in the United States would not be economically feasible due to the high costs for American consumers. It's far more practical to import these goods from countries like Vietnam, Thailand, or Mexico. That said, I fully support high-tech manufacturing initiatives, such as Biden's efforts with the CHIPS Act.

However, we cannot engage in a trade war with the entire world and expect to come out on top. History has already shown us the dangers of protectionism. The Smoot-Hawley Tariff Act of 1930, which raised tariffs on thousands of imported goods to safeguard American industries, ended in disaster. Other countries retaliated with their own tariffs, causing international trade to plummet. For instance, U.S. exports to Europe fell from $2.3 billion in 1929 to just $784 million by 1932. Globally, trade decreased by about 66% between 1929 and 1934. Such policies risk repeating the same mistakes and undermining economic stability.

I have to go now as I’m a bit busy, but we’ll continue our discussion later.

Cheer!
