I think the stock market wants a full apology from Trump, not one of those "i'm sorry if anyone was hurt" backtracks. That is, it wants all the tariffs suspended.

Death by a thousand paper cuts
REPORTER: The EU has said they offered zero for zero tariffs on cars and industrial goods. Is that not enough?
TRUMP: No, it's not

So much of the US Constitution is designed to keep an autocrat from amassing too much power. At this moment, the constitution is failing. Or perhaps our elected representatives are failing the constitution. When a single person can wreck the economy by fiat, something is badly broken.

Here’s the bidding:
Pres Trump slapped 20% tariffs on China.
He then made up tariffs China charges the US.
He then charged them half of that at 34%.
China retaliated, meeting the US number.
Now Trump threatens 50% new tariffs in response to retaliation to a made up number. Or 104% tariffs.

The administration is a perfect storm of dumb people who enjoy inflicting pain and are addicted to psychotic cruelty and quadrupling down. It ends in total ruin if you don't impeach him.

REPORTER: Is there pain in the market at some point you're unwilling to tolerate?
TRUMP: I think your question is so stupid. I don't want anything to go down, but sometimes you have to take medicine to fix something.

As the economic news keeps coming out over the coming weeks keep one thing in mind: this is the fault of one man and didn’t need to happen.

We are probably 15-20% from the bottom. Maybe more.

It's darkly funny that from the perspective of investors, a circuit breaker (not the literal ones on the exchange, but rather some sort of offramp) to stabilize the market seems more elusive than when we were facing a literal global pandemic.
