And so is everyone with functional reasoning
Being a flaky lunatic is not a sound strategy for leading this country anywhere.

will be doing just fine. (illegal? what? ha ha ha ha ha ha ha .... )

It's the rest of us who are screwed.

And especially those of us who work for a living and don't have time to "play" the market. (Speaking of which .... back to the salt mine for me.)

6. Market manipulation in plain sight!

It’s so easy to see the market manipulation happening here. And the signs were all over the place. The tariff pause rumor leaking yesterday. The ominous “It’s a great day to buy” social media message from Trump this morning. The market showing meager gains today when China and EU launched their own retaliatory tariffs. The market ignorance in reacting to the bond market crashing and treasury yields spiking.

I was lucky enough to catch the signs and played the game early this morning and made a substantial return on my options. I had a feeling since yesterday’s rumor of a 90-day pause that something was in the works.
