Trump's tariffs are a consumption tax targeting imported goods in the USA. Trump's tariffs will be inflationary. The Fed is going to have to tighten its monetary policy in response to increased inflationary pressures. It seems we have an idea what will trigger the end of the current bull market next year. What the market doesn't know yet is how high the tariffs will be. The US and its trade partners are going to negotiate at some point. The stock market will react to the results of the negotiations whatever they may be.

And for now it's just more of that good old uncertainty! Maybe that's even the plan, people can profit off of uncertainty, after all.
There's definitely money to be made from volatility. The $2 trillion cost cutting plan is wild. Musk has promised the American people "hardship". When there's hardship equities will be cheap and ripe to be picked up by those with deep pockets.
It's going to be carnage in the Srates.
It's going to spread into the rest of the world.
