“A difficult time to invest.”

• Citadel CEO Ken Griffin

“Everybody’s paralyzed.”

• ON Semiconductor CEO

“I’m sorry I can’t be particularly positive.”

• Franklin Templeton CEO

“The chaos that is reigning right now is causing everyone to sit on their hands.”

• Nasdaq private market CEO Tom Callahan

[Horace]

Yeah that checks out.

[Mik]

To be expected. The market likes certainty and stability. We have neither. Way too early to tell how all this shakes out.

I think there’s a conservative axiom that it’s a lot easier to break things than improve them.

We’ve got the breaking part going now, let’s see if the improve part will happen.

@Mik

Agreed, and Trump will likely change course if the market shows disapproval. But I wonder how long that might take.

Atlanta Fed now forecasting negative growth for the quarter.

Let’s borrow more money from the Chinese and use it to become the Greater Fool of Last Resort for crypto.

What’s the worst that could happen?

Oh FFS.

[xenon]

Refuse to believe congress would allow that… even with the tips thing.

[jon-nyc]

Just what the people voted for. Higher prices.

[Doctor Phibes]

I know Trump is a genius and everything, but has he actually thought any of this through?

[jon-nyc]

We've gone from:
"Vote Trump to end Bidenflation and bring down prices," to
"Ok, Trump will raise prices even higher, but that's the price of loyalty to our dear leader."

S&P now wiped out all post election gains. 3.4T in value

[89th]

Lovely

[Renauda]

It’s ushering in the new age marked by the introduction of Anarcho-MAGAt-Syndicalism Anarcho-MAGAt-Extortionism in the form of fraudulent trade and investment policies coupled with punitive economic sanctions targeting friends and allies on a global scale.

All in all, a very myopic and extremely stupid attempt to deceive the market and come out ahead.

Maybe Trump will sue Wall Street for being disloyal.
