Stop Watching or Stop Sleeping? When to Rest Under Trump's Impact?
Over the weekend, Trump announced a tariff exemption for semiconductors and smart products, marking a 180-degree shift in U.S. government tariff policy.
On Saturday, multiple media outlets and KOLs just finished analyzing Trump’s tariff exemption.
On Sunday, another reversal: Lutnick stated that the suspension of tariffs on phones, computers, etc., is temporary. The electronics that received tariff exemptions will be re-reviewed, and may be included in new semiconductor-related tariffs. These products will face special, targeted tariffs to ensure they are reproduced domestically. These new tariffs may be announced in one to two months.
Despite the double reversal, $Apple(AAPL)$ rose 5% in overnight trading.
Now more and more investors have ideas but no actions?
Some KOLs have even said they hope Trump stops posting on weekends, because they have to work overtime.
Hedge funds have also expressed that trading now requires minute-by-minute monitoring, as policies and directions can change the next minute.
More and more capital is shifting toward faster-paced, shorter-cycle trading strategies. For example, in the options market, one-day expiry contracts continue to grow in trading volume. ETFs $Direxion Daily Semiconductors Bull 3x Shares(SOXL)$ are also frequently used for short-term rebounds — it’s not that no one is going long, it's that no one dares to hold long-term.
The biggest problem in U.S. stocks right now isn’t the lack of money-making opportunities, but the lack of dependable, hold-worthy assets.
In this environment, uncertainty itself has become the core market risk factor.
So when facing all this uncertainty…
Are you choosing to stop watching?
Or choosing to stop sleeping — and keep your eyes glued to Trump’s updates?

perhaps I need to learn to do both... one eye to stop watching [Blush] and the other eye to keep watch [Serious]

What I can do that is within my control, is to diversify my investments. My favourite strategy is to hold a diversified portfolio of ETFs in different markets - the US, Hong Kong Australia and Singapore. These can help me to reduce my risks from sudden policy changes.
Warren Buffett also said "Only buy something that you be perfectly happy to hold if the market shut down for 10 years.
It is about avoiding short term speculation and the power of long term investing.

Lately, I’ve found myself shifting toward faster, more reactive trades. Instead of holding positions for weeks, I’m looking at daily or even intraday setups. The market’s not short on opportunities, but with the rules constantly changing, it’s hard to trust anything long enough to hold it through the weekend.
That said, I’m not giving up or tuning out—I’m just adjusting. While I’d love to stop watching and get some proper rest, this is the kind of market where staying alert matters.

I think I m allergy to the IV as I still suffering dizziness, floating in the air and low blood pressure. It is like the adverse reactions of Pfizer Covid jab. . 🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬. No wonder people tend to say you will be very high when you are on drugs. I don’t like the feeling. It is very scary as you might just faint or hurt yourself. another drug into my allergy list. 🤕🥺😢😭
Hence since last Thursday, I stop making major decisions. Instead, thinking of ways to get ride of the IV in my body. 😠😤😡🤬
但我的做法是：不盲看、不熬夜，但重要节点一定关注。我会设好预警、过滤信息源，只关注那些真正可能引发政策或市场趋势改变的内容，比如关于美联储、贸易政策、地缘冲突的发言。其他情绪型言论，就别浪费精力了。
市场永远有不确定性，关键是找到属于自己的节奏——看得清、睡得稳，才是真正的优势。
在星期天，又一次反轉：盧特尼克聲明暫停對電話、電腦等徵收關稅。，是暫時的獲得關稅豁免的電子產品將重新審覈，並且可以是包含在新的半導體相關關稅中.這些產品將面臨特別、有針對性的關稅以確保它們在國內複製。這些新關稅可能會在一到兩個月.
美股目前最大的問題不是缺乏賺錢機會，但是缺乏可靠、值得持有的資產.
