Rules:

Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.

We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.

All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.

Tariffs that change wildly from one day to another it's something that companies really love. Because goods get teleported between countries and you can predict easily what rate you are going to get

So, do I sell because he'll keep wrecking the economy, or do I hold because he'll keep backing down? What do the licensed financial advisors here, acting in their professional capacity and accepting full legal responsibility for the consequences, think?

Coward. And now he's going to tell everyone what a great deal maker he is - it only cost the world $12 B or so.

The fact that people defend this action is appalling.

And then after 90 days what happens? Because if today you order stuff from another continent to be shipped by ocean, there's a chance it will arrive after that date. Especially if everyone has the same idea of frontloading their warehouses before he changes idea again
