I assume the sharp drop at the end of 2024 was companies trying to stock up in anticipation of incoming tarrifs?
Great job! Have you seen the Dow? Like Omg.
Will Rogers(early 20th century US entertainer/humorist) once stated:
* „The one way to detect a feeble-minded man is get one arguing on economics.“
Trump has proven this to be true.
Manufacturing exploded. Mission accomplished.
Lmao so tariffs have actually done absolutely jack shit towards what they were supposedly for
Huh. Isolating and pissing off the world and imposing tariffs on imports caused a trade deficit? Who could have seen that coming.
So, imports are still climbing (because Americans need stuff) while exports are cratering (because other countries are retaliating and/or moving on without us). But we get gold planes and $4 billion in family grift. Neat. Also, don’t forget that we need to „discipline“ the analysts who showed that the American consumer is paying 90% of tariff costs.
