Based on the lack of respect that China has shown to the World's Markets, I am hereby raising the Tariff charged to China by the United States of America to 125%, effective immediately.

At some point, hopefully in the near future, China will realize that the days of ripping off the U.S.A., and other Countries, is no longer sustainable or acceptable.

Conversely, and based on the fact that more than 75 Countries have called Representatives of the United States, including the Departments of Commerce, Treasury, and the USTR, to negotiate a solution to the subjects being discussed relative to Trade, Trade Barriers, Tariffs, Currency Manipulation, and Non Monetary Tariffs, and that these Countries have not, at my strong suggestion, retaliated in any way, shape, or form against the United States, ...

...I have authorized a 90 day PAUSE, and a substantially lowered Reciprocal Tariff during this period, of 10%, also effective immediately.

Thank you for your attention to this matter!

The result is a massive surge in US equity markets (up 7-9%)...

[barnyarddog]

Late last week, the news of Trump’s tariffs sent U.S. markets into a massive tailspin. Again on Tuesday, news of the latest tariffs on China reversed market gains earlier in the day,

This market moves as a herd, stay ahead of it.

We just witnessed one of the biggest bull traps of the year:

Buyers of stocks when the S&P 500 was at 5270+ just 4 hours ago are now rushing to the exit.

REVERSAL WEEK ALERT!!! 73.34 low this week will now NOT be breached, low of the year is in!

[luckydude777]

Though early ... I'm beginning to think we might be at the beginning of a BIG upside move in the Indexes - especially in the Nasdaq. Trump Effect.

[luckydude777]

Wishing all who read this board a happy new year in your pursuit of making profits in the Tripple Q's.

Long or short the 3xQ's ... there's always profit to be made.

No raping of the share price by thievery MM's.

No untimely offerings - no surprise death spiral R/S's - no toxic debt conversions where shorting rules the share price - no dilution-pollution by the company to keep paying wages and overhead. No slippery dealings with unscrupulous shysters that work for off-shore hedge funds ... just honest-to-goodness QUALITY companies who are eager to make you and I profit in our portfolios.

All we have to do is get better and better at guestimating the Nasdaq Index DIRECTION on a regular basis.

[luckydude777]

Had someone had the foresight to preserve the manger our baby Lord Jesus lay in that night at the stable, it most likely could be sold today for gazillions of dollars at auction.

Yet the ONE who lay in that manager ... wonder what price He would go for today if wealthy investors could buy Him?

[luckydude777]

Yesterday, big red. This morning, decent green. Go FIGURE what direction the Nasdaq is headed from here?????

The "Plunge Protection Team" (PPT) is a colloquial name given to the Working Group on Financial Markets. Created in 1988 to provide financial and economic lifts to the S&P 500.

Critics fear the Plunge Protection Team doesn't just advise, but actively intervenes to prop up stock prices—colluding with banks to rig the market, in effect.
The Plunge Protection Team, composed of high-ranking government financial officials, reports directly and privately to the president of the United States.

Betting no interest rate drop tomorrow. Lowering interest rate will INCREASE inflation.

“We’ve experienced high inflation over the last three years because of how much money we flooded into our financial system as a response to the COVID-19 pandemic,” explains CFP and MBA Scott Sturgeon of Oread Wealth. “These include stimulus checks, PPP loans, quantitative easing and other pandemic-era policies that lingered too long. The more dollars there are pursuing the same goods and services, the more those goods and services will increase in price as a response.”
