Ah, trading. It’s kind of like weather in a way, right? You think you know what’s coming, but then—bam! Surprise. So, Bryan Bottarelli, a guy who’s got this trading volatility thing down, claims that Trump, with his roller coaster tariff antics, is a pro at stirring things up. I mean, seriously, have you noticed this? It’s wild.
Trump does something, markets go bonkers. Then he changes his mind, like that awkward pause at a family reunion when someone brings up politics. Anyway—Bryan’s onto something big. There’s this kind of rhythm or cycle happening with Trump’s moves. Like, he throws out a huge tariff announcement, then, oh wait, not really. Why? Maybe he gets a friendly phone call or something. You gotta love that unpredictability.
Picture this: Trump says, “50% tariff on the EU starting June!” Then walks it back faster than my cat runs when it hears the vacuum. And the market? It’s like, “Let’s celebrate!” Weirdly enough, he did something similar with China. It’s like a soap opera plot twist, but with stocks involved.
People are dubbing this the TACO effect. Heh, Trump Always Chickens Out. Oddly accurate, wouldn’t you say? Just look at a graph; you’ll see this pattern — tariffs threatened, tariffs dialed back, markets doing a happy dance. Can’t make this stuff up.
Now, Bryan’s got this radar for overreactions. Like, remember that time you thought you failed the test but then, surprise, you passed? It’s sort of like that. He’s been closing trades left and right, claiming a 100% win rate. Good for him, right? Though I bet that stress is no picnic.
Oh, oil. Let’s not forget Trump’s big dreams there. He wants to make boatloads of cash in oil and steel. Love him or hate him, you want him to nail this, am I right? But with oil hanging around $64 per barrel, it’s like trying to party with no music. Funny thing though, low prices might actually fix low prices. What a twist. Marginal producers struggle, and the big dogs might just weather the storm.
So yeah, that’s the scene. Trump’s antics shaking things up, Bryan figuring out how to play the game, and oil just doing its oily thing. Life’s a tangled web, huh? But hey, isn’t that what keeps it interesting?
