It's irrelevant because the SC has made him immune to the law.

Posting on your social media that it is a good time to buy, and a couple of hours later doing something that causes the markets to rise significantly ................... umm ...................... stinks of fish
And bad news for anyone who submitted purchases of collectives yesterday as they will buy at today's prices.......

So what do we think? Will the RotW think 10% default is okay and pretty much move on?
It's not that strong a negotiating position now he's flinched. Basically, the reaction of the markets means, "If you don't negotiate with us, I will threaten to shoot myself in the foot."

The RoW needs to still move away from the US. You cannot make even short term decisions in respect of the US at the moment given the flip flopping the TT is doing. The TT is compounding his unreliability and instability.

At least Gerald Ratner, once he'd tarnished the brand, didn't expect the business to come back. As I've read elsewhere, usually US bonds are a safe haven, but they tanked along with shares, which suggests that not even the markets think of the US as being a reliable entity any more. Totally self-inflicted.

IIRC there was an auction of new US Treasuries yesterday and another today (different duration). I guess with the yields jumping the prospects for the auction were not looking good and someone with the TT's ear actually managed to get the message over to the illiterate, and collectively the regime shat its pants and back pedalled on the level of global tariffs ....... for the moment.

The US will have an enormous success, the biggest ever, out of this world, squillions of money will flood in.
Meanwhile, ordinary Americans will face massive inflation, reduced incomes, job losses, poorer health, worse education and will vote for him again.

As a sign of strength, I have now decided only to charge myself 10% more for shopping at Sainsbury's. I plan to continue pretending this will still encourage me to set up a farm in my garden.

I see what you did there. Tarnished.

That's fine, I'll just shop at ASDA. I can get pretty much everything I need there.

You're not charging yourself 125% for all items in aisles 1-15? Then deciding that you can no longer buy some key restricted ingredients like, say, flour.

Oh no, you're supporting Walmart an American family who still own shares in Asda after they sold it in 2021

The stock markets are being manipulated by Trump's tariffs. In a single day billionaires recovered $304 billion since the pause was announced with Musk's share of that being $36 billion.
Tariffs on China were increased to 125%. With the opposing ideologies of Musk and Navarro in his ears, has Trump managed to appease both of them at the same time?

Good point. Lidl in that case. Boosts tariff free trade with the EU.
