You really are too kind and polite. And I do not mean that ironically.

You are indeed a good judge of character, unlike the US electorate......

Site it out , looking at your age , I guess you have time on your side 
• Markets soar: US stocks skyrocketed after Trump announced the pause. In a massive turnaround, the Dow and S&P 500 are now on track for their best day in five years.

Re: President Trump 2.0
Speaking of propaganda…
https://www.cnbc.com/2025/04/09/trum...e-updates.html
Quote:
White House advisors claimed the flip flop was always the strategy, suggesting that the past week of massive tariffs that triggered huge market losses was all for show…
… Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent says Trump was always planning to pull back his sweeping tariff plans for dozens of countries just days after announcing it.
“This was his strategy all along,” Bessent tells reporters at the White House.
“You might even say he goaded China into a bad position,” Bessent says, referring to the fact that China, which imposed retaliatory tariffs, now faces higher U.S. duties while others get a reprieve.

Re: President Trump 2.0
Even if it was the plan - which I doubt - he’s making clear that he is unpredictable and unrealiable. That’s not good in the long run for investment.

Not good in the long run for investment in the status quo.
The fact the markets are rebounding despite your correct observations that he is unpredictable and unreliable demonstrates why they are not adequate indicators by themselves.

How is that, in any way, a revelation ?

He's made it clear to me that the USA is a bad business partner and totally unreliable, they change the rules at the drop of a hat and ruin peoples businesses /lives/pensions my advice for what it's worth avoid the USA, trade elsewhere.

The changes he’s making are no longer simply saying one thing one day and the another the next, or threatening and then backing down. He actually implemented the tariffs this week and left them in place until someone managed to get him to realise they were having the opposite effect than intended (wiser heads than me are saying it’s when the bond markets started turning ugly that he had no choice but to capitulate).
His unreliability is no longer something to argue over on the internet, it has just cost a lot of people a lot of money. It has, this week, become a revelation to people who don’t like losing vast amounts of money and change their strategies accordingly.
