I know you've been anti-Trump so I'm not really talking to you here: but I mean, this is not new information, lol.

Indeed Super. As soon as I typed that last sentence and posted it, it felt really strange to state the obvious. But of course I was talking about how this market has played out favorably to every one of his ridiculous moves. It almost seems orchestrated, but that is giving him far too much credit. It would be akin to his excuse for rambling and getting so far off topic as his "weave." No, it isj ust incoherent babble, there is no weave that brings everything together to make perfect sense.

I am just baffled how he pulls this off, or how a usually hyper- sensitive stock market is just shrugging off the damage already done. And the U.S. bond market, 10yr Treasury Yield, is painting a completely different picture.
 
UNCatTech -- see the Wall Street Journal explanation of the "Taco Trade." I am sure they explained it much better than I did. I wrote that before the Journal talked about investors playing the trade wave every time Trump does something stupid with tough tariff talk, and then immediately backing off.

There's a very subtle dig in that TACO remark, in addition to the obvious one. IIRC the FT was outraged by Trump's famous taco salad 'I love Hispanics" photo.
 
Nvidia earnings the past two years have been historic for a comany this size. The ones announced yesterday were great ev en despite losing 8 billion in sales to China this quarter owing to current Trump ban on chips.
On another note, long live the TACO trade. Kudos to a Financial Times reporter for coining the acronym which I am sure makes a certain person mad, gtiven his propensity for name callin
