Looks like it still has a ways to go, and get ready for inflation with the cost of nearly everything including food going up.

By your new iPhones and TVs now folks. I wouldn't wait.

Might also be worth stocking up on essentials again ... toilet paper anyone?

...please. Some here are enjoying the dip etc.

We are very confident in the tariff and other DC programs. All will eventually (shortly we hope) benefit the citizens and taxpayers of the USA. If some simply research and listen to the plans, honestly, it would make sense. Our country has been taken advantage for many decades. Almost all countries have very high tariffs and VAT taxes on OUR goods. FINALLY bold action is being taken.

Some folks here relish in some of the pains in this, even though (shortly we hope) our economy will take off. Short term pain for a great long term gain.

If in the long run this puts the US in a better position vis a vis world trade this will all be worth it.

Those people are called short-sellers. Not regular people like us.

Most of the time economists say the opposite. It is a dumb approach.

I am not an economist but from what I have read, it would be better for the world if there were no tariffs (or at least lower tariffs).

I think that is what the US is trying to achieve.
