Trump is not Obi-Wan Kenobi and the American people are not Empire Stormtroopers. You can't use the Jedi mind trick and say 'there is no inflation' and suddenly people believe prices are low. We're paying high prices! No hoax. Just facts. He's literally closer to Jabba the Hutt in most ways.

Don't worry, Maga farmers are doing it for you by necessity.

Wow, creating a tax that also destroys trade. The old Trump tariff twofer' aka the Triple T. ™

Some bubbles pop, maybe some slowly deflate a bit before they're blown back up.

Time Corp used to own SI. Being on those covers is not a good thing. Similar to topics on Business week that turn out the opposite.

Start thinking about Tips over nominal Treasurys. Rates will drop no matter what. Helloooo inflation.

He's selling out our country for personal gain. Special place in hell.

The US reportedly gets 25% of the profits. It's so odd how we're living Democratic socialist state. I'm an independent and I thought Republicans were for small government. Odd times.

Thank you! While finance is important and compelling, that article about Steven Miller and immigrants generally, is required reading. An excellent dose of perspective for we who are lucky enough to be concerned with finance.

Gen x just collectively groaned. At least the 5 people who got it.

The Fed won't lower and the President doesn't understand tariffs are an inflationary tax. Scotus to Powell and Trump, Hold my beer.

Hopefully the Supreme Court will help us form new tariff policy that decreases inflation. Welcome to bizarro world.

At least we got a good jobs report. Maybe. If we can trust the new person Trump appointed. After firing the former person for a bad report. Nevermind. And now the Fed is less likely to cut. The hits keep on coming. At least healthcare is cheaper and tariffs are objectively fair. Darn.

Ride it while you can! Could be a whole year or more. Deregulation, sales to Saudis and UAE, data center built for the Saudis. We're likely selling out America's future, but hey,vthe stock market will be up for a while.

We pay more for food because inflation is real DESPITE what they say. Tariffs are taxes we pay DESPITE their claims. ACA costs have doubled DESPITE their 'fixing' it. Epstein files exist DESPITE their denials. ICE tramples our Constitution and hurts our economy DESPITE their claims of safety.
