Don’t give Trump too much credit… there’s methods in madness, there’s arrogance in thinking too… he’s bully by nature, and I don’t think he cares two hoots if the market is going down… while it is true that if people runs to bonds, bonds yield falls, this doesn’t necessarily translate into low inflation. If consumer’s price continues to raise since imports are a lot more expensive due to tariffs, inflation will hardly come down… it is not so straightforward. On the other hand, by cutting labour in government services by big number in a short time could contribute to significant increase in short term unemployment rate. This might have a deflationary effect. Time will tell… I am not optimistic with US mid to long term future… the problem with today’s world is that neither Europe nor China is ready to replace it… but at least it looks like the beginning of the end…

Why Trump Wants the Market to Crash – and Why It Might Actually Make Sense! 🚨📉

@Shernice軒嬣 2000：
Let’s break it down—Trump’s strategy isn’t just chaos for the sake of chaos. There’s a method to the madness, and it all comes down to one thing: debt. 🔹 $7 TRILLION in debt is coming due within the next 6 months. If the government doesn’t pay it off, they’ll need to refinance. 🔹 Refinancing at today’s rates? Yikes. The 10-year Treasury was as high as 4.8% this year. That’s expensive. The Trump team doesn’t want to lock in high rates. 🔹 How do you force rates lower? Simple—scare the markets! Here’s the play: 💥 Create massive uncertainty (think: tariffs). This weakens growth. 💥 When growth slows, investors panic. They dump stocks and rush to bonds. 💥 When demand for bonds goes up, yields fall—exactly what’s needed for cheaper refinancing. 💥 Lower bond yields give the Fed the green light to cut rates, pushing yields down even further. So while tariffs should be inflationary, they’re actually doing the opposite—causing so much fear that money is fleeing into bonds, driving down yields. And that’s exactly what Trump wants in the short term. Short-term pain for long-term gain? Maybe. But one thing’s for sure—this is not just random economic turbulence. It’s a calculated move. 🎯 $Cboe Volatility Index(VIX)$ $SPDR S&P 500 ETF Trust(SPY)$ $MicroStrategy(MSTR)$ $Direxion Daily 20 Year Plus Treasury Bull 3x Shares(TMF)$ @Tiger_comments @Daily_Discussion @TigerPM @TigerObserver @TigerStars
