Bluesky is nog enorm jong. Een jaar geleden had het amper gebruikers.

Momenteel vooral niche groepen die beetje doen denken aan de begin periods van Twitter.

Pretty dull. A rock would win from human innovation.

You don't act this way unless you plan to be in power for a long time and are unbothered by any consequences. Still waiting for him to declare martial law for some ballooney reason.

Tarrifs can be used as leverage to get things done, especially from surplus driven economies. China being one of them. Part of this cost is paid by consumer, part by importer, or things are sourced elsewhere completely.
I still stand by this and never claimed otherwise. Drama queen.

I do not have to teach anything. You are getting your panties all wound up because I merely stated tarrifs are paid by consumers AND importers. They're used as trade leverage by Trump. Trade routes will adapt.

I don't necessarily agree with them, especially when used on allies, but it is what it is

Nobody will know how it will play out, but your eagerness to buy goods from a country that is openly supporting dictatorships and using unfair (subsidized) trade practices is remarkable. Is this about China or just Trump?

You caught me making a spelling mistake. Good on you.

Of course he backs down. Did you at any point really think Americans would be paying a 500% tarrif?

China can source elsewhere, but so should the West. China's days of dumping subsidized goods on the West are coming to an end. Free trade for surplus countries is not a right but a privilege.

What do I even say? Constant ad hominem attacks because you think you have it all figured out. Quite sad really. Your life must be hell ever since Trump got elected. Everything the old man spits out is enough to upset your fragile personality.

Some is past on to the consumer, some is eaten by the importers.

Tarrifs aren't great for global trade, but global trade is about more than just getting everything at the lowest price possible.

Stop getting lost in bold headlines. It's Trump...

You still don't get how the tarrif game works. You're slow to catch up.

This indicator is cooked. It's likely heavily influenced by the gold rally.
October 16, 2025 at 10:12 PM
Tarrifs in this context are leverage. 500% is an embargo, nobody is actually paying that. They are a way to make it less interesting for China to support dicatators and mass murderers. Call it a starting point for negotations.

Your hatred for Trump clouds your ability to have an argument.
October 16, 2025 at 10:10 PM
Calling me weird because I don't parrot the common narrative here is quite lame. I don't like Trump as a person but doesn't mean I have to disagree with all of his policies.

The idea that Trump and his team are just plain stupid is overdone.
October 16, 2025 at 10:08 PM
The point is not to distribute money. Sure that's the headline, but this far in Trump's presidency it's clear these tactics are to hurt foreign economies rather than bring in money.
October 16, 2025 at 3:50 PM
China will be paying in reduced sales to the West. A lot of China's exports - bar some more sensitive stuff like Minerals etc. - can absolutely be sourced from elsewhere.

It's never just a US consumer story. China knows this, so does Trump.
October 16, 2025 at 2:42 PM
It's never that simple. Surely you know that. Tarrifs will hurt China's competitiveness and as a highly surplus oriented economy, this will derail their growth targets.

Name me one dictatorships that China isn't funding. I'll wait...

Did he just call the April Trump induced crash a bear market?

Clowns that got with some investments a while back. Shouldn't get one minute of airtime.
