USA playing alone in the corner while the rest of the world trades efficiently.

It worked well for North Korea

Ya know, since there is pretty much nothing I can do about it anyway, I'll just see where this shitwave is taking us and hope to the heavens all I know about economics is wrong.

70-80% of my portfolio is in relatively safe stock.

So 20- 30% of my shit is fucked right now. I just hope the tariffs landing Saturday don't affect the other 70-80%.

Oh yeah I lost big the last couple of days, tech stocks. Here's hoping Trump's term will be so bad, everyone will be like 'AI can't possibly do worse than this, let's give it a go'. I'll be rich. But most likely it'll all be worth nothing. Speculating is fun.

I do not want AI in positions of power. That's an awful idea.

[–] Vinny_93@lemmy.world 4 points 1 day ago (1 children)

I'm not saying I do. But my stocks will skyrocket if people decide AI will be better than Trump. Since people seem to enjoy putting AI in everything.

It was meant to be an attempt at humour.

I caught the attempt, but at the same time it's just such a bad idea...

No argument here

More stock manipulation?

Why won't Republicans do something?
