Tariff Man and his tariff plan cause market plunges

Didn't know whether to post this on this thread or another one but apparently Donald's shitty address to the American public about Iran and the status of the "current situation" has the stock market saying ....WTF?

DjT

We're winning this war, and they're ready to surrender.
We've decimated their army navy and missiles.
We won't stop until the straits of Hormuz are open
None of the above is true, and will let the people that live nearby sorted out for themselves.

Gee....start an ill advised fight, lie about the situation and the status and then throw gasoline on it and set it on fire....great job SIR.

Donnie Dumbass doesn't realize that these heretics fight for religion every fucking day and will not stop till the last one experiences 57 virgins and a supreme death. These are not ppl to negotiate with in traditional ways. Yet dumbo Donnie just decides to kick the nest and then run away...the middle east is like "WTF- we gave Jarod billions and you just shut down our money maker.". If the middle east was a pimp, Donnie would be getting a pump slap real bad. They'll probably turn on those chips that are in that 747 they sent over to make that mother fucker crash straight in the ground. Fingers crossed


Oh yeah the market is set for a 3-400 point plunge congratulations dipshits

A solid retrospective by the Tax Foundation of Tariffman's tariff promises va what he delivered

BREAKING: President Trump is weighing up to 100% tariffs on pharmaceutical companies that don’t offer Americans the lowest global prices under “Most Favored Nations.”

The play:
•Lower drug prices in the U.S.
•Or face massive tariffs

Reports say the order leaves a clear off-ramp:

➡️ Cut prices… or pay the price.

This is direct pressure on Big Pharma like we haven’t seen before.

Apparently, MAGA still doesn't understand that WE pay for trump's dumbass tariffs. Otherwise, they wouldn't be celebrating anything about them.

Essentially, trump is telling Big Pharma "lower your prices or else I will raise them significantly".

The whole "never seen before" aspect is getting a little late to the game. Pfizer, Lilly, Novo Nordisk, and over a dozen others have already made their deals and are exempt. This is mostly aimed at the holdouts.

The question nobody is asking in their excitement and use of bulleted points is: what about when the costs are passed on to the consumer instead of lowering prices? Who pays? Answer: Not Big Pharma.

BREAKING: The US jobs report just TRIPLED EXPECTATIONS, adding +178,000 when +59,000 were expected for March

That jobs number? Real, sure. But here's what they glossed over in the headlines.

Most of those gains? Healthcare folks coming back from a strike—not some roaring economy. Feds cut 18k jobs. White-collar payrolls? Shrinking for 29 months straight—never happened outside a recession in 70-80 years. February got revised to a 133k loss. Three-month average is 68k... which feels okay until you see the break-even bar's so low now that barely anything registers as growth.

Oh, and oil's over $100/barrel, Strait of Hormuz is shut, gas is $4/gallon, Goldman just upped recession odds. Fed's sitting tight.

One okay month after February's disaster? Not "experts in shambles." Dead cat bounce—with war on top. 😬

Of the 178k:

• 76k in Healthcare
• 26k in Construction
• 21k in Transpo & Warehousing.
• 15k in Manufacturing jobs (net neg 76k since Tantrum Day)

Thank you Mr Tariff!!!!!

Gas above $4. Markets lost $3.2 trillion in March. The Supreme Court ruled the IEEPA tariffs unconstitutional. $133 billion in potential refunds now owed. Economists already warning the war negates whatever gains existed.

But sure. ALL CAPS. THANKS MR. TARIFF. For one month of fear-driven data built on front-running and gold hoarding.

The celebration is doing considerably more work than the evidence.
