I'll ask you the same question. Where are you getting these "facts" from?
He made up the tariffs that he claimed other countries were applying. In layman's terms, he lied. Apart from Taiwan, who owe their security to staying onside with the US, literally nobody else has offered anything to Trump that wasn't already there.
You are being lied to, and these lies are very easy to disprove. Why do you choose to believe them?
This was probably the biggest market manipulation event in not just US History, but likely internationally as well. And our government will do...absolutely nothing about it. But god forbid if a Dem did all of this loony tunes sh**. I'm tired boss. We are reaching levels of corruption that I thought was only possible in rotten tomato rated movies
The delay on the Tariffs, just means what ever happens won't be permanent. So, if you have the cash, buy everything now. It's low, but it will recover, probably a few more crashes before it's all over. But if have cash you don't need on hand for the next 4 years. BUY
And power those factories with "beautiful, clean coal."
If only these market swings could align with my 401k contributions from my payroll, but nope.
The way I understand it is every country gets a break except China.
And we are now at 125 Percent.
Which still means its a SAD day for APPLE
I cant Pay 125 percent more to Stick with Apple Products.
I better get use to Windows 11 and Android Phones.

Is 10% enough to change sending habits to force companies to build factories in the US and use US labor?The 10% baseline is still in place.
Just looks weak to go revert back down to the 10% baseline.
This is, I don’t know what this is but this is just pure chaos and uncertainty. One day it’s 100%+ tariff, the next day is let’s put everything on hold. what’s it going to be tomorrow? Who in their right mind would invest in production facilities in the US under these circumstances.
Apple/MSFT has the foresight to diversify their supply chain meaning they can scale down in China while scaling up in India or Vietnam. I don't know why Amazon and Walmart would rally though.
My friends and family outside the US have shared photos and discussions of the near-complete boycott of US goods in their regions. This was before any tariffs. I'm not sure countermeasures are needed for the EU, UK, and Canada. Whatever % of revenue came from sales in those regions will be dramatically reduced.
elect a clown that's what you get
I wouldn’t dare to predict anything at this point.
‘To add to the uncertainty, the president said he might consider exempting some U.S. companies from the tariffs over the 90-day pause period. He said his thinking on this would be made “instinctively.”’
Seriously? Or was that sarcasm without the necessary /s tag? The moron-in-chief bouncing world markets around just because he can is pure crazy narcissist. No successfully anything except disruption, which is only good for Putin.
Linux is seeing a generous uptick in usage already.
Kudos to Apple diversifying the iPhone supply chain in advance. It’s a long process, but it’s better to be proactive than reactive. And as a weird side benefit, our current Apple devices are ostensibly more valuable (though pretty sure my Vision Pro is about $1,250 at this point 🫠)
