10. This "on again, off again" tariffs thing

has been triggering the markets ever since he first announced them and then delayed them several times.

There was the market buying "spike" last week on April 7th that was purportedly based on a purportedly "false social media post" - https://www.democraticunderground.com/?com=view_post&forum=1014&pid=3437425

And the markets dropped back down again after that. Yet that "post" apparently turned out to be true for what would eventually happen.

There are so many ethics violations going on with 45's staff that there could well be insider-trading but the ups and downs have been pretty broad because the tariffs have been broad. And a big issue too was what was happening to the bonds and yields, so someone had to put a stop to it with some kind of bizarre facing-saving gesture of increasing the tariff on China - the place where we import a significant amount of products (#2 behind Mexico) and dropping retaliatory tariffs (but keeping the general 10% tariff).
