The first quarter of 2025 painted a clear picture of global asset performance: safe-haven assets surged while riskier bets stumbled. Fears of an economic downturn fueled gains in government bonds and gold, with the latter soaring over 17%. Meanwhile, copper stole the spotlight, climbing nearly 25%, propelled by tariff uncertainties and inflationary pressures. U.S. equities, however, faced a turbulent Q1, rattled by the unpredictability of Trump-era po...
$Nasdaq Composite Index (.IXIC.US)$HERE IT COMES! White House aids have drafted the proposal that would impose tariffs of at least 20% on MOST imports coming into the US. To put this in plain English, the past two months of turbulence in the market has been centered around tariffs between Mexico Canada , China. President Trump has mentioned the pharmaceutical industry on Air Force One this past Sunday he's talked about tariffs on chips multiple times but nothing has happened specifically to t...

your groceries are a different animal grocery stores operate on very thin margins. they are primarily volume driven and the science that goes into the layout of a grocery store is perfected.. lowest profit items are your milk your eggs I know you're going to laugh at me when you say $10 eggs how's that low profit. these are placed at the very back of the store so they make you walk past everything else in order to get to that section of the store that sells their low margin items. typically grocery stores operated about a 1 to 2% profit margin to put it in perspective software companies they can run at 80 and 90% margins. grocery stores rely on volume. one of the biggest factors that impact grocery stores is the cost of transport the goods and services so fuel your gasoline your diesel that is a major expense because every time it goes from the farm to an intermediary to a packer to a co-packer where it's transported all the way down the line and finally winding up in your store there's costs associated with moving it along the way. the other which Biden is directly responsible for is they push the whole BS raising minimum wage to make it a full-time job and that the employers are going to suck it up well they didn't they passed off the cost to the customer. the initial argument that a tariff is not a tax is true when you have the choice of multiple items and I imagine that you are going to see a lot of flag stickers made in the USA made 100% in the USA put on items which will make it very easy for the average public to make an immediate decision where they want to spend their money.. when you have a choice it's not a tax if you are going to universally impose 20% tariffs on everything you have shrunk in the choice to the consumer in some instances to nothing. example electronics if you go to Best buy for a TV set for a laptop for appliances for speakers most if not everything there originates overseas therefore your prices at Best buy are going way to hell higher. I watched several weeks ago and I referenced this the owner of a Ram dealer I still call them Dodge but it's Ram is the product line was saying right now here's a pickup truck it's $80,000 and he's standing next to the truck showing the cameraman the window sticker he says come April 3rd this is $100,000. any flat out said no one is going to buy it they are going to sit here I have to pay interest on them because we pay to have these trucks this inventory put on our lot to offer it to customers so they have a choice. and he said flat out, no one is going to buy that truck come April 3rd. I don't know what percentage of every good is entirely made inside of the United States I just watched a show about a commercial of a company that's selling cotton sheets called Red Land and I remember a year ago seeing them advertising on TV saying we grow everything we source everything it's American made American labor direct from us to you. I think it's a very small percent of goods it's probably less than 5% that you can find that are 100% American made on store shelves right now regardless of where you go and it's probably very small in the electronic space it's probably 1% or less. but this presents a huge problem because the argument from the administration from the Republican party from myself to others that you the consumer have a choice to buy American or not and if you don't it will cost you more.. with a blanket 20% wrapped around virtually everything you really don't have that choice. and I hate to say it but I'm very forthright I believe you are going to see in coming months president Trump's popularity decline within his base. and I don't believe President Trump is going to comment on it.. I've said that I disagree with several things president Trump is doing I've offered solutions that I feel are superior with regard to his policy on tariffs on how to reduce the debt the coming debt crisis of 70% coming to in the next 24 months I've offered what I think are superior solutions to that relative to his course of action. and it's my opinion that there will come a time that a lot of the strong supporters of President Trump and I am one become more vocal that things he is doing right now are not in the best interest of the American people and first and foremost when corporate profits come down because of tariffs and they will your stocks are coming down that is a real world destruction of value.. I have taken massive hits and I'm not asking for any sympathy because everybody that is invested long in most every us equity has taken a significant hit certainly if you're in technology you got clubbed like a seal.. I think this is trickling down and when people start opening up their 401K statements and see that they're down 10 20 30%, they're going to begin questioning is what he is doing right for the people of the United States.

President Donald Trump's recent declaration that his forthcoming "reciprocal tariffs" plan will encompass all nations has stirred significant interest and apprehension across the financial markets.

On April 2, 2025, the Trump administration is set to announce a series of "reciprocal tariffs," a move Trump himself has called "Liberation Day." This marks the day America is supposedly freed from the "long-term exploitation" by its trading partners. The push for these tariffs stems from concerns over the U.S. trade deficit. According to the concept of "Dirty 15," coined by Scott Bessent, the top 15 countries responsible for the largest U...
