When are all these 'good deals' going to help our economy?

We were told that after inauguration, prices would immediately drop, and stocks would rise.
In fact, it has been exactly the opposite after 4 months now.
When?

Patience. Instant gratification is too easy a mental exercise on the internet, and sadly how more and more of our society processes information. It doesn't make for good long-term policy. The same goes for the quarterly SEC reporting cadence, and how it blinds Corporate America to long-term business implications and strategy.

The benefits of USA's renewed focus on national security and geopolitics will come from long term supply chain shifts and data consolidation and oversight through new GenAI standards and applications. The interim may be bumpy.

In terms of the results of your psychoanalysis, you want me to fit into the MAGA/Far Right/Mango Worshipper box, despite my clear statements otherwise, namely everything I stand for and say is say that is consistent with classical independents and liberals, civil libertarians, and other moderates who favor civil rights AND fiscal conservatism (centrists). Why? You want to think of yourself and be seen as rational and reasonable, representing the majority or average, even though it may not be the case. So to compensate you label me the extreme element (push me into the MAGA box), and pull yourself ideologically closer to the "middle" (in your mind).

#2 has a point although perhaps brusquely stated. And who is the person who makes brusgue assessments? It's a natural assessment when we were TOLD, as a NATION, that IMMEDIATELY after inauguration, prices would drop, and stocks would go up. So now we wonder, is this just another of his failures with the 'long stage supply chain' story a retrofitted cover for his weak plan? DJT has made a habit out of doing that. He told Walmart they made enough money in 2024 so don't complain? And he told them 'he'd be watching?' Can you imagine him, as a businessman, being told by a Federal government to quit focusing on this year's profit b/c he made enough the previous year? And they'd be watching him?
He would EXPLODE. Patience is not a behavior he practices so why would he expect ANOTHER business to operate on it.

A bit of analysis, paralysis there. What was your major in college?

You should read “The Emperor has no Clothes” -a fairy tale that has an allegory to what is going on today. Much of what you just wrote is plain bs to me. Trump is basically a narcissistic liar whose ideas are old and he idolizes a past in America which never was. Things were humming along pretty well in Biden’s america- at least for me.
 


President Trump has taken aim at at least four retailers in recent weeks over possible tariff price hikes with an effort that, for now at least, is largely about applying public pressure to CEOs.

"I'll be watching," he told Walmart (WMT), with harsh words also directed toward Amazon (AMZN), Ford (F), and Mattel (MAT).

There are also hints Trump could do more than just watch with additional tariffs threatened in one instance and an array of additional tools at the president's disposal if he decided to escalate further.

Doesn't this sound like what Communist countries do to businesses? Regulate profit?

Oligarchs do this as well- aka Russia. Then they steal the company and give it to their buddy. Same thing. The common person gets screwed .

The GOP is trying to do everything they can to draw attention to immigration because the global economy is terrible. The rates on 10-year bonds are going up. It’s soft everywhere. Companies are warning of lower earnings. And all of this is happening. Trump’s not done anything about any of this.
