A 0.31% move in USDJPY is not "plummeted". It's a 0.6 std dev move and is only barely in the bottom quarter of daily moves over the past 2 years. Similar-sized moves in equity index futures, equity index volatility futures, and rates. Markets are shrugging at Trump's attempt to remove Cook.

Everything is priced in, tariffs, Powell being fired, 1800% tariff on social media posts. Priced in, line go up. The only thing that makes line go down is if you’re targeted for destruction by Trump for petty reasons. Then you have to give up 10% of your stock to stay in business.

At the end of the day, the fecklessness of the capitalists will be the real killer of the economic system that generates their wealth.

At this point, you could get inbound nukes, and investors would be spouting off about the potential profits in remediation and construction.

a certain UK anchor on BTV already sh*t-stirring this as a fait accompli, once again lowering the credibility for all anchors in the process. notable that it's the older male anchors both here and in the US which are now by far the worst offenders for inaccurate sensationalism.

The US equity market seems to be fairly happy with the direction of travel, at least so far. Maybe secession and civil war might take a bit of the froth off the top...😑

You’re right and this is why this all absolutely feels like when you know you’re sick but can’t really identify the symptoms.

Stocks will be up. Because stocks will be up. Because Trump can’t do anything to really send the down. It’s so silly at this point.

The market is deciding that if the choice is between lower rates and the law, they choose lower rates. They’ve been doing that since April, and I guess we’ll see if it works out for them.
