Don't be like these fools who allowed their TDS to cloud their judgement, losing tons of money as a result:

How Warren Buffett bet against the ‘Trump trade’ — and lost spectacularly

Nov. 8, 2024

Buffett has been selling stocks like Bank of America and even market darling Apple, if you haven’t noticed, hoarding more than $300 billion cash and cash equivalents (T-bills) because he said tax rates were going higher, and he expected stocks to crater.

Now that the possibility of Trump winning has turned into a reality, the famed Oracle of Omaha is looking more like the Knucklehead from Nebraska, some of these traders say. Sure, shares of his holding company Berkshire Hathaway were up with the rest of the market after Wednesday’s massive Wall Street, but think of all the money he left on the table by sitting in as much low-yielding, short-dated treasuries as the Fed, and not having his cash in the roaring S&P.

Billionaire George Soros reportedly lost nearly $1 billion during Trump rally

January 12, 2017

Billionaire George Soros lost nearly $1 billion after the stock market surged following Donald Trump 's unexpected Nov. 8 election victory, The Wall Street Journal reported.

The hedge-fund manager's former deputy, Stanley Druckenmiller, however, foresaw the rally and gained a sizable profit, the Journal reported, citing people close to the matter.

The sources told the Journal Soros was cautious about the market going into the election and became bearish after Trump won.

Stocks and Treasury yields jumped in the wake of Trump's victory, amid the prospects of looser regulations in certain sectors, lower tax rates, and fiscal stimulus.

Soros' hedge fund, Soros Fund Management, manages about $30 billion for Soros and his family. Soros was a supporter oof Hillary Clinton's campaign.

I didn't say anything about tariffs, you decrepit old fart.  ;D

Merry Christmas to you too.  ;)

Indirectly, you did say something about tariffs when you responded to Chaos' post with ;D.
You do realize that a ;D is a type of agreement or acknowledgment, don't you?

Put on your eye glasses, grab your magnifying glass, and zoom in to 500% in your web browser, then look at my post again.

I responded to Chaos' post with a smiley face because of his "our 51st state" reference.  I made that very clear by bolding the text and increasing the font size only on that part of his post.  I didn't say anything about tariffs.

And Merry Christmas, you blind and senile old fart!  I'm jealous that you got to see baby Jesus in person, when you played your drum for Him.   :D

Here is Chaos' post about tariffs wherein he mentions the 51st. state.
Why do you think the US should pay high tariffs while having low tariffs? Should we not have an equal trade footing?
I have no problem whatsoever with "protectionistic" policies, everyone should be doing their best to protect their people and their country. Problem is so many other countries, including our 51st state, are so used to the US just throwing money and goods their way that when we want a little something in return, the handout countries start throwing a fit.

I may in fact be an old fart, possibly senile, and I wear glasses, but I am not blind.
