Trump Tariffs

I am not interested in engaging with you or especially this question. If you want the answer to your question go back in the dialogue and find it, the answer is there.

The question was asked in a completely different manner than you are suggesting so the response to how you are asking the question has no relevence for the same reason as the other guys attempt. See loaded, baiting, insincere questions asked completely out of context are very easy to see especially from cetain posters (as yourself) that either jump in just to take the jab as you did, OR as the other guy did try and mask the comment and hide the dig. Either way the question is moronic, there was no context there was no discussion it missed its mark in both cases and we move on.

If you are really interested in debating content then feel free to do so, if you are only attempting to pester me or any other poster without real intention of discussion I would hope you already know we do not allow it and I wont allow it.

To fake/mask your stalking it helps to be more involved in general discussion and not just target the hit...the effort comes off weak and lacking. 

JUST IN: Trump administration looking to impose tariffs on $60 billion of Chinese goods; tariffs would target tech products and telecoms but would not be limited to those - source

Next on the chopping block is Jeff Sessions. Gowdy in line to start the military tribunals and to make sure our arrested traitors do not touch their ankle bracelets. Let the trials begin!

Gowdy grilling Glenn Simpson is must read.

Not a single economist polled backed Trump's tariffs:

Polls .......

They were wrong in their predictions of a Clinton presidency...and
with Brexit...what makes them so right this time ?

So does draining the swap mean accumulating Trump-like debt at 2012 historic high levels by giving unwise tax breaks to corps and a few pennies to the little guy financed with this debt?

When the economy is allegedly good (not convinced) you pay DOWN debt, not accumulate historic high levels or is this just Trump-Economics?

WallStreet-I have no idea how you mod this forum.  Much respect.  But I gotta ask...why do you continue?  To try and explain basic economics to people in here is...um........just to be honest, painful to watch from the outside, forget about big picture economics like how taxes work, how stock markets work, and how global economies work.  

 

God Bless him . Someone has to do it.   

Ain't that the truth. I gave up myself, but wall just keeps plugging away, as if more than 3% of the posters can even understand him, much less learn anything (closed minds don't do that). I admire perseverance, but sometimes it is a fruitless virtue. 

Well,well,, the since the fanboys feel that he's the only one who can explain how basic economics works ..it tells me they do not understand it either ...lol

and ...so that they are not the only ones trying to get a "Get out of jail free card"     God bless the forum moderator..

 

Instead of the usual whining routine and dig why dont YOU explain how economics works and please feel free to use words from YOUR pen, not some cut and paste blog garbage. If you want to try and insult then please add more content to counter balance the normal contribution.

I'll go read Atlas Shrugged a couple more times and get back with you...Mr.Galt..

So this is the best you can do? If you want to insult other people as you did and say what you did, please give the detail and explanation you think was lacking.

China has responded by sending a tariff on 128 products. Beijing states this is the first of a two stage tagging hike on American goods. Hardest hit recycle materials soy and pork. 

Worst day in US stock market in six weeks after Trump announces tariffs on China.  Growing fears that a trade war may harm global economic growth.  Contrary to Trump's beliefs, there are reasons why trade wars aren't easy to win.  First, tariffs may not boost jobs much and many dead jobs won't return.  Secondly, tariffs are likely to raise costs.  Third, political consequences are unclear. 

Fourth, tariffs invite retaliation and escalation of conflicts.  For example, China holds the largest portion of US national debt and could dump US treasury bills?  Perhaps, halt US shipping through Panama canal or stop exports of rare earth minerals?  History shows that everyone loses in trade wars.  Hard to find economists that support protectionism.

I'm reading the China tariffs on U.S. goods are around 3 bil as of now.  I'm thinking that's the starting point with escalation coming down the road.  Hoping this doesn't kick start a full scale trade war.  

The Pre-market stock are down as well ...soon it may be a good opportunity to buy.............

No panic, just simply pick and choose your investment sectors MUCH MORE CLOSELY.  What you don't buy is just as important as what you do buy.  For instance they can talk to me until they are blue in the face but will never convince be to invest in BTC.  I'll let my assets sit and rot in Gold & Silver before I buy that snake oil.

3/23/2018 --- TheGoldenGoose --- Canada's C-45 Recreational Use MJ Bill cleared a major political hurdle last night as PM Trudeau rallied his troops to a successful 44-29 vote which appears to pave the way for a mid-summer signing into Law which will hopefully happen by the July 1st Canada Day Holiday.

Despite the Dow taking a 700 point nose dive yesterday and some investors running for the cover of Gold investment there was no similar relief in Bitcoin investment as the price of Bitcoin retreated to $8,400.

With Dow Futures down again this morning I would urge any serious investors to not dismiss opportunities in Canada MJ Stocks.  Major Canadian Producers such as Canopy Growth (trading under TWMJF) are beginning to finally receive attention from the Stock Pundits and Canada MJ Stocks will probably be one of the very few sectors not affected by any potential USA Trade War that could send the Dow tumbling even further downward.

So why did Biden keep those tariffs and added more? Hmm?

Trump is again putting on a one-man clinic with tariffs.

He is teaching a master class in tariffs.  
Even the threat of tariffs is getting great results.  

@wallstreetcappers

 Trump looks favorable on tax cheats and frauds ! Even convicted ones!….He says there was No victims? What about the people of New York and the US who pay their taxes without cheating? The community suffers when the people with the most money don’t pay a fair share. But Trump and his attorneys choose play it this way……

Your honor, we freely admit that my client got money from the victim by claiming to be a prince from Nigeria who needed to get 25 million in cash transferred to a bank account. But you see, the supposed victim has a university degree, and should have known this was a scam. They were stupid. Therefore, my client deserves to walk free, because it’s the victims fault they were stupid….They still believe this is a winning play
