We'll see. The Atlanta Fed's GDPNow estimate is unreliable and most economists I follow are not predicting a recession.

The stock market and economy are not the same

One thing is for sure, you have no idea what they are doing.

Sickening that liberals continue to side with China

Hard to take you seriously when you believed Joe Biden was competent for the job at hand.

This is simply your opinion. Trump sees the long term benefits outweighed the short term pain and nobody else was going to stop China from taking advantage of us with IP theft and trade. The 10% universal was necessary to keep China from bypassing the tariffs by going through other countries. I expect these 90 days the countries will get the 10% removed with agreements not to let China circumvent the tariffs by going through their countries.

90 day pause of Tariffs execpt for China

Trump is going to meet with Bassent

There is a direct correlation of those who hate Trump and those who are negative on the stock market. The good news is almost all with TDS have now sold out so a recovery should be coming soon.

This simply isn't true. There are many economists that believe we avoid a recession. Stop the hyperbole.

I would be nervous she would choke me out with her thighs

If both Trump and other countries lift their tariffs that would be a win.

Then perhaps don't say the only way the market rebounds is if Trump caves

He set the tariffs high to negotiate. Acting like the only deal is Trump caving is ignorant.

You fail to mention other countries caving......I wonder why that is?

I love how Tim says with certainty that 90% of reporting was done by conservatives. What a load of crap. Liberals made the PSF a cesspool and mashed the report button on any conservative poster. Conservatives got banned way more than liberals and that is a fact. The Mods were so bad and biased, none worse than that asshat Clayton Gray.

Best of luck Jerry!

Only people with TDS believe this nonsense

If you truly believe tariffs are here to stay long term I advise you to liquidate all your stocks and short the market as we haven't sniffed the bottom. I think that would be extremely unwise as this morning you can see how the market will react with any hint of tariff easing or reductions. To think the tariffs will remain at 25% effective rate is crazy as Trump set them deliberately high as to be able to negotiate.

Stock market and economy are not one in the same. Underlying economy still very solid. Only prolonged tariffs will hurt economy. I am willing to bet that we get deals worked out relatively quickly and the now 25% effective tariff rate is lowered to around 10% where the economy will avoid a recession.

Europe caved to Trump

I got permabanned from there for saying I wish I could "dislike" a post. It was a post from Joe Bryant where he was siding with libtards

I do expect many countries to come to an agreement short term. We will see.

You are right there are Republicans panicking too. I was trying to give my personal experience with clients. It goes both ways, I had conservative clients go all cash scared of Biden and lost a ton of equity on the sidelines

We can all agree the last couple of days sucked. I am a Certified Financial Planner and manage over $200 million in assets. Most of my clients have been through many economic cycles so very few selling the past few weeks. We did trim some stocks early February after the nice start to the year though. The only clients that have liquidated their stock positions, and it isn't many, has been left leaning clients. I believe the media has been so negative (anti-Trump) and that has helped investor sentiment be the lowest is has been in a long time. Guys like Physic Observer saying they went all cash are panicking. I would guess the huge majority of people who went all cash this week are liberals. If that is the case then yes you kind of can blame the Dems for this sell off.
