Well, Trump - with his deep understanding of economics and finance - still doesn’t like it.
But regardless, how did the market react? Looking at my portfolio I don’t see much more than borderline daily noise?
I had a -1.5% drop, mainly due to gold/energy exposure

Even after your sell? I had 1.27% drop yesterday. OK, it is already over 100k this week, but who cares, no risk no fun!
I think an Erdogan like decision of the Fed would be worse and the stock market soon will see that too. If not… who cares. My best returns came from bear markets and my bear market protocols start to get a bit rusty…
Why the hell stocks rise again today? Did Mr. Market check that I spend too much at the moment?
No, I think it is not even the stocks that are rising. It is just money that is falling. Cash is trash!
When will he do one on Trump? OK, he did surprise everybody, his boy did save the Dollar.
Sorry, I did remove the “Schmähgedicht”, was a bit under the belly. But I was really afraid that Trump would do the turkish way to destroy the Dollar and it seems he doesn’t.
Yup. I didn’t sell any gold/oil positions. In fact, generally added to commodities.
I see even pre-market, things are heading back up. Difficult to buy anything now as everything seems expensive. Might add to AI Trade (NVDA, TSM) maybe BIPC after the next rate hike to replace the REITs.
It’s good that Fed hiked otherwise they’d have no credibility.

Total of 1.09%!
(I think I should add even more brokers for better results)

Perhaps the new rate rise as expected is already factored into the current market.
This week my loss is around 150k. Just to know that the only currency you can buy performance with in the stock market is volatility.
My maximum gain in one day was only about 120k, my maximum loss was around 400k. Li(fv)e is hard but beautiful.
Addon: I think I said this a few times already… don’t do that at home!
