US and Canadian markets are at record highs.  TSX is up about 8% since the inauguration, S and P is up about 5%. 

 

I can live with these results.

I'm in "IGNORE" mode given how often trump changes his mind.

Trump is an evil genius.

Nobody can figure out what he's doing or why he's doing it.

He 42 moves ahead of you.

Nothing says chaos and American hardship due to Trump tariffs than a new all time high BTC and US stock markets.

I really hope nobody is still listening to the sufferrers nonsense😅

The U.S. is grappling with a combination of economic headwinds:

 

Rising consumer costs from tariffs

Elevated borrowing costs

Slowing economic growth

Weakening labor conditions

Fiscal strain from recent policy moves

 

While a full-blown recession isn’t confirmed, the economic outlook is increasingly fragile.

 

Now, where are my rose-tinted sunglasses

The countries that dont negotiate their way out of tariffs look increasingly fragile. Maybe time to look at vietnam

What the US isn't grappling with

 

Open southern border 

Tanking stock markets

Rocketting gas prices

GainofFauci and his cooties

Burly dudes battering women in sporting events

A senile President

A useless hyena cackling VP

 

Looks like progress to me

From a non-Canadian's perspective I'm impressed with what Carney has done so far. He's obviously in a very difficult position with what goes on down south. For your sake I hope Melania doesn't develop a crush on Carney.

And most of all the US is grappling with an administration that is a complete clown show, a bunch of clueless dimwits whose only talent is cringey sycophancy, led by a person so mindblowingly unfit for the job that even a hundred years into the future doctoral theses will still be written as to how this came to be.

I won't disagree with you. He is a vast improvement on Trudeau, who drove the country into the ground for a decade.  Seems to me that Carney is rediscovering his identity after leaving Europe. Becoming more pragmantic, more energy-friendly, and more practical.  

 

I think he and Trump can do business. Trump respects people with academic pedigree, business experience, and money. Carney has all three- Trudeau had none.  Look for a deal to be done in the next week or two.

Tariffs, tariff and tariffs again

 

More like Whine, whine and whining again.

 

How many threads are already open screeching about the tariffs? 

 

Strange enough, when challenged by another poster for links that I recall I had posted back in April (Penguin Island), I went back and perused the ad nauseum lefty forecasts of doom and gloom on account of the tariffs.  None of them have come close to coming true.  In fact, quite the opposite.  Job numbers are up (except federal workers and illegals), the markets are doing great, inflation's pretty tame and it costs less to fill the car.  What's not to like?

You don't feel them yet as he went Taco on most. Plus it takes some time to feel the pain but that is logic you wont understand.

The Del Monte company felt it. After 139 years, they've had to shut down because the tariffs hit the ingredients they use to the point where it is no longer feasible to run their business. Del Monte! They've been in business longer than anyone here has been alive!

I remember when it dropped a little while ago...the circle jerk on here was off the hook. Or when Biden was president they wouldn't shut up about it. Stock market all time high bla bla.

 

Now the silence is deafening.

This last week has seen the Trump derangement cranked up a notch, relentless threads about Trumpo, with 3 in a row being totally fictional, what is wrong with you guys, do you not see how obsessed you have become.

Sad sad sad

Meanwhile their Transtifa foot soldiers are shooting cops, and their donors are keeping illegal migrant children as slaves on marijuana plantations.

The stock market is valued in Dollars. Since January, the market has risen by a little over 4%, while the dollar has fallen by 10%. You can do the math.

Last year  corn in a NC Harris Teeter never dropped below 5 for $2. Now its 4 for $1 and its not totally local yet. Fuel costs are waaay down.

 

Thats the math for Americans

I see the Trump nutters have been let loose again. On the subject of tariffs they start ranting and trying to deflect as usual. Derangement indeed.

It's embarrassing to see how they try to cover up for him.

90 deals in 90 days. Where are they? How many have been done? 

Let's stick to the subject, rather than trying to deflect the subject on to something else.

What comment do you have about the letters going out with regard to the tariffs?

They make a mockery of Trumps continuous lies about countries rushing to do deals. It seems the majority have simply ignored him altogether, so he's reduced to writing poorly worded letters in a vain attempt to grab their attention. This is the reality.

Trump fanettes here are like gamblers who fail to mention quite how much they lose, so try to deflect the conversation onto what they might have won. True derangement and a perfect anecdotal riposte to their continued gaslighting.

Don't try to start any left/right nonsense with me. Stick to the subject. The success or otherwise of Trump's tariff gambit. Let's keep to known facts.

Trump's fanettes won't be able to do it. They'll collapse under the  pressure and start ranting about something else. Truth for them is a stranger. Just like their dear leader.

Hows the American economy doing?

 

Speaking of nutters deflecting...

Ask an American. One who lives in  the USA, rather than slumming it in Cambodia. They won't be talking about the stock market, that's for sure. How is it in your Gamblers Anonymous meetings?

 

Now we've done with that idiot, would anyone like to comment on the success or otherwise of Trump's tariff gambit?

You raised the matter of fictional threads about Trump and weird obsessions.

 

Let us just say I was providing a particularly bizarre example, which has appeared from within his own camp!

Trouble is, deals mean nothing. The day after they're signed someone will show Trump that photo of his wife snogging Trudeau, he will throw a hissy fit, go back on social media and the whole deal will be off.
