Trumps stock market

Is Trump purposefully toying with tariffs to control things like the stock market so he can benefit from the fluctuations?

No, frankly he is not disciplined and intelligent enough to plan that far in advance.

@MasterLee So you made a killing out of the stockmarket chaos of the last fortnight, along with his wealthy backers?
@SunshineGirl If you are asking me, then the answer is no.

I have invested my TSP (Thrift Savings Program—think of it as an IRA for military and some government employees likeVA) wisely in various growth funds and maxed out my contributions including the “catch up” contributions after age 50.

Now I am moving those funds into safer alternatives due to the volatility he is causing.

Anyone who tries to time the market based on tRUMP’s erratic actions is playing a fools game.

He has a longer and more consistent history of bankruptcy than successful management.
