President Trump granted automakers a one-month reprieve from the import tariffs he imposed on Canada and Mexico — avoiding major disruption of the North American auto industry but underscoring the fickle nature of U.S. trade policy in the Trump era.
Trump continues to give us temporary repreives… from the horrible ideas he wants to enact.
I have to wonder if the whole thing is a stock market go up and down kind of plan…
(IE tell rich investors to sell) Announce a policy that till tank the market (tell investors to buy when prices hit bottom), announce temporary reprieve (prices go back up, then tell them to sell before the date comes by again… watch stock dip again as uncertainty of whether another reprieve will come again, anounce reprieve at the last second…).
Basically this kind of plan massively awards the constant in and out style of trading, and punishes the “hold on for the long haul” investors.
The only way to screw with Trump market manipulation is for other countries to randomly tariff on and off when Trump least expects.
