^Trump imposes tariffs, world markets plunge. Trump pauses tariffs, world markets soar.

Could it possibly be that there’s a connection between idiotic trade policies and investor confidence?

…nah…

Yes, it represents about 3/4 of the losses since last Thursday, when it was already down quite a bit during this administration. There's also the impact on foreign markets, have to see what happens in Europe and Asia in the next session.

Trump signed an executive order today directing the DOJ to investigate a cyber security official from his first term who said the 2020 election was secure.

No one person should have this much power.
