Tariffs

Let’s see. I’m supposed to worry about some prices going up here and there on a few products but my 401K is already up nearly $80,000 for the year? And it’s still only August. Madness.

 
Said Pelosi about Obamacare. "But we have to pass the bill so that you can uhh... find out what is in it."



Talk about pulling a con on the American people.

After than nonsense why should I believe a damn thing that comes out of her mouth?

And that is al wease is doing when he cites white house spokespersons as some sort of authority and proof

Can you clarify your statement?

I would think a government official would be the one to communicate the overall goal of the government's policies.

Either we have a miscommunication here or what you are saying does not make sense.
 
Now we watch as the libtards who can’t stop crying that Tariffs are going to increase costs aren’t going to be happy about the pause but instead will stupidly antagonize President Trump with the TACO line again. They are just so so so dumb.

Meanwhile this is all about negotiations with our third largest trading partner.

 
Gotta make sure America 🇺🇸 get’s its 15% cut of the action.

Liberals always say Corporations should pay more taxes. Well guaranteed they’ll have a problem with this just because they have to have a problem with this.

 
Mark Cuban seems to ❤️ the idea of that 15% “commission” from semichip companies.

Dow futures rally 200 points after lighter-than-expected inflation data: Live updates

Stock futures rose early Tuesday as investors weighed a fresh inflation report.

Futures tied to the Dow Jones Industrial Average added 204 points, or 0.5%. Nasdaq 100 futures rose 0.6%, and nd S&P 500 futures traded around 0.5% higher.

Shares of Intel added 4% on Tuesday morning after President Donald Trump flip-flopped his view on Intel CEO Lip-Bu Tan, calling him a “success” days after demanding his resignation. Stablecoin issuer Circle Internet Group jumped 8% after reporting a 53% year-over-year rise in its second-quarter revenue.

The consumer price index rose 2.7% on an annualized basis in July, while a Dow Jones estimate had called for a 2.8% rise. So-called core CPI, which strips out volatile food and energy prices, increased by 3.1% year on year — slightly more than anticipated.

Investors are hoping that this latest reading will shed some potential insight into how the Federal Reserve will handle short-term interest rates, especially as the S&P 500 hovers near an all-time high. The report comes as traders weigh the latest developments on the tariff front. President Donald Trump said Monday he’d extend a 90-day pause on higher levies on Chinese goods.

“Investors seem to be betting on upcoming interest rate cuts and counting on them to counteract the drag from tariffs. We think it is too early to make that assumption,” said Brent Schutte, chief investment officer at Northwestern Mutual Wealth Management. “The degree of tariff impacts and how long they will take to work through the economy remain open questions. In the meantime, high equity valuations may heighten the impact any negative developments have on stock returns.”

Wall Street will also parse Thursday’s producer price index report for a reading on wholesale inflation. Both reports come ahead of the Fed’s Jackson Hole gathering at the end of August, ahead of the central bank’s September policy meeting. The market is currently pricing in a nearly 87% chance of a rate cut next month, per trading data from the CME’s FedWatch Tool.
