Waiting for the Monday market reports… Who is profiting from short selling?

“… Friday 4/4 broke the record for the most shares ever traded on a single day in the history of the U.S. stock market ..”

Elon may bail soon?

NASDASQ-100 FUTURES PLUNGE 4%

one hour later: Nasdaq 100 futures down 5.4% and S&P 500 futures down 3.84%.

“King of Debt” Trump (2012): "I do better in bad markets. I buy things in bad markets. You can't do that in a great economy. There's a lot of opportunity I find in the bad times."

“The left’s real trauma might be that neoliberalism died without them actually killing it.”

Larry Summers: “I've never seen as much incoherence and irrationality as we saw on television today. Self-evidently, you can't both use tariffs as a crowbar, threatening other countries and saying you'll remove them if they cut their tariffs. And also promise that they'll be a revenue source and an inducement to businesses to locate in the United States.”

The entire cost of America's war effort in World War II (all the weapons, ammunition, equipment, deployments, Manhattan Project, etc) was about $5.95 trillion in 2025 prices.

The total US stock market losses from the Trump tariffs in 2 days have already passed $6.6 trillion.

Trump said that the United States and Italy have been allies since the time of Ancient Rome. The translator's reaction is priceless!

Senator Tommy Tuberville just blamed the market sell-off on Wall Street. Tuberville himself sold up to $265K of stock before the tariffs were announced.

x Trump calls for Europe to pay reparations to the US: "We put a big tariff on Europe. They are coming to the table. They want to talk, but there's no talk unless they pay us a lot of money on a yearly basis number one for president but also for past."
