Summary
Trump had to reverse his aggressive tariff rhetoric after CEOs from Walmart, Target, and Home Depot warned of empty shelves and higher prices due to supply chain disruptions.
Investors reacted negatively to his threats against Fed Chair Jerome Powell, prompting a market sell-off.
Trump backtracked, expressing optimism on a China trade deal and now denying plans to fire Powell.
Global markets remain volatile, and the IMF cited Trump’s trade war as a “major negative shock” to global growth.
I’m ready for these tariffs to hit the shelves for a month or two. Give MAGA Morons a really good taste of HitlerPig’s virtuosic incompetence. They won’t be happy when the shelves in Walmart and Target are nearly empty, and whatever is left has tripled in price.
When they get home from their trip to Walmart empty handed, and turn on the TV to see enormous crowds protesting in the streets, perhaps it will finally start to sink in what those protesters are unhaopy about. Not all of them, of course, but some of them.
not to mention the DOGE cuts, is barely making the news anymore, MSM is barely reporting it right now, because it hurting trumps image
You’re assuming corpo America will drop the prices after. They won’t.
Up like a rocket; down like a feather.
