Reuters Exclusive: China backtracked on almost all aspects of U.S. trade deal
Shit, I took off my short too soon. I should have had more faith in the Don… Big crash thus far today, but at least I dont have any money in the market at the moment. And I’m not buying back in just yet either, I trust our president to keep up the good work he is doing, and I will get my eventual buying opportunity, perhaps 15% from where we are now…

Crash? Doth protest too much
I can’t understand why investors are concerned. I mean China is paying billions in tariffs to the US, amIrite? Stocks should be up bigly.
Well if it closes at the low this morning later today, it would be one of the worst days during the trump reign, no??? But crash was used out of context for the market, I agree. But the day is not over…(-;
I think during trumps tenor as president there have been like 5 of the biggest 10 single drops of dow POINTS (not percentage) of all time. I think the same number is the same for gains (that coincide with the drops).
What is going to be VERY interesting is if anyone can figure out who is actually making money of these things.
Someone smart has to have found some correlation on these things.

I’d be much more concerned about oil and the nonsense in the Persian Gulf, just saying.

Yes and according to Trump, the tariffs that China pays directly to the U.S can be used to pay down debt…
I think Trump should do everyone a favour and just stop tweeting about anything to do with economics…and umm foreign policy, or healthcare. But if the government needs to build a hotel or casino and don’t mind more debt, he’s your man.

Which is absolutely pointless.

Or the tariffs don’t take effect until June. If you’re going to be chicken little at least be accurate.

He also thinks an increase in the value of the market, directly decreases the deficit.

Worthy of it’s own thread.

Why aren’t more Americans concerned about the retaliatory tariffs that the US WILL BE PAYING DIRECTLY TO CHINA?!?!?!?

I’m just quoting Trump. Are you saying China isn’t paying billions in tariffs?

Is this a serious question? My sarcasm meter has been acting up lately so i am a little off.

No, not serious.

I’m guessing that is being factored into todays drop in the market. Perhaps not fully yet, but I just looked and the S&P is now down 70pts, so perhaps the oil situation is bleeding into the tariffs Trump is tweeting about…Of course oil will go up, but the cost of just about everything will go up too with it. Maybe time to get some oil stocks??
This morning Trump tweeted:
“*China should not retaliate – will only get worse!*â€
2 hours later China announced new tariffs on US products.
Today we’ll get details on US plans to impose a 25% tariff on all remaining imports from China - an additional $300bn worth of goods.
(“Trade wars are good and easy to win!”)

Here is an analysis of the tariffs’ effects so far, by the center-right, libertarian-leaning magazine Reason:
https://reason.com/2018/12/28/good-and-easy-to-win-2018-trade-recap/
They conclude:
“In the end, America may very well “win” the trade war—or, more likely, it may “lose” less badly than other countries. Still, it’s plain to see that it hasn’t been good, and it won’t be easy to recover.”
Meanwhile the USMCA now looks unlikely to be ratified…
