US Emerges as Biggest Loser in Markets From Trump’s Tariffs

https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles ... -s-tariffs

President Donald Trump’s shake-up of the global trading system is hurting US assets more than those in many of the big economies he has just slapped with additional tariffs.

US equity index futures tumbled more than 4% after Trump announced a sweeping series of tariffs following the market close on Wednesday, and a gauge of the dollar slumped. But the impact elsewhere was less extreme. The Stoxx Europe 600 was down 1.9%, while the euro was up 2.2% against the dollar, hitting its highest level since October. A broad gauge of Asian stocks fell as much as 1.7%.

The widespread selloff in global markets makes clear that investors don’t expect any winners from the latest — and by the far the largest — salvo in a growing trade war. But they also suggest the US itself might be one of the biggest victims of Trump’s protectionist policies.

If you're gonna bet on any contrarian, choose the one who lost a fortune on casinos...

Not IN them, mind you....

Hey Dickhead

America has the world's largest economy...

every country needs to sell us stuff to keep themselves afloat....

every country tariffs our products...

They are not forced to sell us their stuff...sell it somewhere else if they don't like it

but there is nowhere else is there

Trump is just leveling the playing field...

and here you are crying about it and saying we are the losers

Trump has shown that you are the losers

Trump's WINNING!

and look at the educated idiots howl about it

their opinions are nothing but "Copy and Paste" fake news articles that they can't even understand.

the big deal now is to protest without actually knowing what you're protesting....

their leadership tells them not to talk to anyone who asks questions

they actually have "Minders" at the protests to enforce the "No talk" rule.....just like China and North Korea do

Last time he only caved because the Chinese were tooling him and he was facing re-election.

He's plenty stupid enough to sink the ship.

I hope that you are wrong 

I think once tRump is told that he is being stupid 

he will be forced to go back on his threats … as usual 

​​​​​​.But I sure wouldn’t bet on it

Here's what progressive immigration looks like

and they are fighting to continue it

Another classic Veghead hit piece, grab a Bloomberg headline, toss in a weak zinger about casinos, and pretend it’s cutting-edge geopolitical analysis. Still no original thought, just another episode of “Forum Jeopardy” where Veghead asks all the questions and answers none.

Here are questions for you to dodge and flip around on me: 

Why don’t you explain how this article demonstrates that Trump’s tariff policy is a net economic loss for the US, beyond just short-term investor reaction?Or are we going to keep playing “guess what Veghead wants us to conclude” while you stay perched in the peanut gallery asking riddles like a discount Sphinx? 

Come on, you posted it—so go ahead and finish the thought. Or is that too risky when you can’t Ctrl+V your way through the hard part?

This demonstrates the truth of my thesis, articulated at this very address 8 years ago.

Grifty is not only the worst POTUS ever, he's the worst human being to ever soil the Oval Office.

It also demonstrates what a **** idiot the author of this is -

Lol. No stupid ***. Here, let me narrow it down for you. Whatever your stupid liberal sources say ie...CNN, MSNBC, and your brainless legtwing blogs you love, if you take the complete opposite of what they tell you to think, then you will find the truth about Trump. 


I'm sure you agree that someone THIS stupid should have been pried off the nipple and left to starve.

Ah, beautiful—nothing screams “I’ve lost the argument” like rage-posting with playground-level insults and fantasizing about infanticide. At this point, you’re not debating—you’re just auditioning to be the villain in a cartoon nobody watches.If you had half the logic you think you do, you wouldn’t need to hide behind hysterics and bottom-shelf cruelty. But hey, keep barking, Veghead—it’s the only sound you’ve mastered.


Notice, he still didn't answer my question. Shocker. How unlike him.

This isn't an argument.

You aren't capable of Argument. 

It's another of your tantrums.

Veghead, you’ve been told this a million times, but let’s go for a million and one: this is your thread. That means you made the claim, and you are responsible for producing the argument. It’s not my job to build your case for you while you sit there pointing fingers and shrieking “tantrum!” like it’s a debate tactic.
If you’re incapable of defending your own OP without turning it into a whine-fest of accusations and questions, maybe stop posting threads you can’t carry. Until then, your entire style remains what it’s always been—loud, empty, and allergic to accountability.

First acknowledge that you already know what the rule is. This is just another attempt for you to express your control issues. 

Do it now and I will repost it.
