CEOs: Recession is here or on the way, bad news for everyone incoming.
Negative feelings are widespread among CEOs, who told CNBC in a flash survey that a recession is coming, job losses are likely, and American brands that sell overseas are already beginning to feel boycott-like pressure.

Well, that's never happened before, but hey, maybe this time since we have the North Korean press secretary.

True, except for when it did.
We should really hire the old press secretary who was sooooo much better and more honest.

This does indeed look like someone manipulated the market for their own gain today, but how in the hell could they do that? What do you invest in? How do you spread the rumor so you know it will affect trading? How do you cover your tracks, or is this simply not illegal because ultimately you just created a rumor and other idiots acted on it as if it were fact?
I don't know enough about the market to know if this is all possible? Although, it worked for Randolph and Mortimer.

Bad Economic Predictions
I was exposed to some theory about how if the something goes down by something percent, then some other USA debt could be immediately refinanced at a lower percentage rate and it would save like $4.5 trillion in whatever.
Clearly I had a firm grasp on what they were talking about but totally sounds legit.

If it's partially strong -arming peeps to renegotiate their economic policies in regards to the USA, then of course the white house would never admit to it.Leisher wrote: ↑Mon Apr 07, 2025 4:11 pm Back to reality...

Misinformation spreads fast. You can enter/exit trades quickly, so if they did this for their own gain, the trades will be there. All trade data is recorded/sent to the SEC. If anyone still works there after DOGE.

The weird thing is that the market keeps pricing in "These tariffs won't really go into effect... These tariffs won't really last..."
But they keep going into effect, lasting, and getting bigger.
The market would be down about 30-50% if they took the tariffs seriously.

An iPhone has about $500 of hardware in it, and retails for $1000. With 104% tariffs, it becomes $1,020 of input. Assuming Apple keeps the margin ($500) the same, it's $1,520 retail.
The current estimates for the (currently impossible to build) American iPhone? $3,500.
Forbes says my estimate is way too low
But I think Forbes is using a static analysis (What could be done TODAY), whereas the $3,500 assumes a functioning supply chain in America (which would take years to develop)
