He did say he would be bringing prices down on day 1, just didn't clarify he meant stock prices, not grocery prices.
As of 1:00 PM EST, it's down 12% on the day and dropping 🥰
As of 3:00 PM EST, it's down over 15% on the day and in a bit of a further swing 😍
🍿🍾

Buyeu and buycanada are gaining momentum?
I agree with the sentiment but I work in IT and yearn for when we will get rid of Microsoft, Amazon, and the tech giants.
My mother won't buy anything American at the grocery store but uses Amazon and Facebook every day.
My coworkers won't buy American products but use Windows, Teams, and Office every day.
I may be using Linux, open source software, and avoid American tech when possible, but I still use Google and Gmail.
At some point we may want to (or should) also extend that boycott to software and tech services. Have our governments, institutions and people not dependent on American corporations. It can only be good for our sovereignty anyway.
I asked in another thread about the possibility and likelihood of a sort of "digital embargo" where the states would order American companies like steam to halt service.
Forget not being able to get oranges or having to eat frozen veggies part of the year, this is somewhere that I can't really change my buying habits and move on (my steam library can't leave steam in this example)
I was questioning that myself.
So far digital goods haven't been the subject of tariffs on either side.
It would also be hard to tariff successfully as it wouldn't be difficult for Steam to setup something in another country's Data center as "Steam International " to bypass any Tariffs.
Although this trade wars has prompted me to start buying games on GoG when that is an option.

I wish, but that's not it. It's just reactions to the business world realizing Trump isn't actually going to do good things for them basically

The FO phase of FAFO.
All I see here is a bunch of companies that were massively over valued in the first place.
I sleep.
One can hope for it to be Consequences of their actions.
"Go woke, go broke"
Go fascist, go.........broke-ish?
Go fash lose cash
There it is, much better, bravo!
They are still saying it is "normalizing".
Yeah, right.
“Normalizing” = we dgaf what happens to everyone’s finances because we’re completely insulated from the effects.
Big Tech always amplifies gyrations in the market. Hence, every single one of these stocks (except Microsoft, I just checked) is still beating the S&P 500 over 6 months, even with these drops. And Microsoft is still way up in the long term.
Look, I want meteors to hit them all, but huge swings are the norm for these now. Hotter stocks trade a lot like crypto these days.
its true if you zoom out 6mo to a year+ ...most of these tech stocks etc are still way up. but panic in the market make "dumb money" sell. smart money buy cheap...
Hotter stocks trade a lot like crypto these days.
Hum... That's not a good sign.
Instead, that's a really strong indication that people believe those stocks have the same kind of fundamentals than crypto.
Tech stocks are overvalued right now because they're all inflated by AI hype. When that hype finally collapses the crash is going to be nasty.

I'm yelling timber!
You better move. You better dance.
whos cashing all this out? and are they paying taxes on it? like how does it work? can you just move your assets/ close out on positions and immediately shove them into some compounding interest account but still capture all the profit, with no capital gain tax?
Depends which country you live in. But in the US you’d still pay capital gains tax over it I reckon. Since it applies at the moment of the sale of an asset. Unless it’s a IRA or 401k then you pay income tax at withdrawal. Of course you pay the taxes end of year. So you can still put it in a savings account and receive interest on all the profits before you have to pay tax
If those stocks were held less than a year you pay income tax over all your short term trades total realized gains end of the year.
