Wall Street concluded the first quarter of 2025 with significant declines, as the S&P 500 and Nasdaq experienced notable drops, particularly among the "Magnificent Seven" tech companies. This market downturn coincided with escalating trade tensions, dubbed "Trade War 2.0," spurred by President Trump's threats of new tariffs and uncertainty surrounding broader import duties. Despite the U.S. market struggles, European and Chinese stocks showed strength, highlighting potential global economic divergence. Amidst this volatility, commodities like gold and copper gained favor, and investors are advised to adopt defensive strategies for the upcoming quarter, anticipating continued market turbulence and the potential for reciprocal tariffs.

Description:
Is Donald Trump trying to torch the stock market to save America? This week, we dive into the viral conspiracy-meets-strategy theory that’s splitting Wall Street and Washington: Did Trump’s team leak a secret plot to weaponize tariffs, tank stocks, and trigger a deflationary spiral—all to slash U.S. debt and slash grocery bills?

We’ll unpack the jaw-dropping claims (crashing markets to help the poor?!) with economists, traders, and former White House advisors. Does this explain his tariff flip-flops and bond market obsession? Or is it just another political mirage?

🔥 Hot Takes Include:

• Why crashing the S&P 500 could backfire harder than Truth Social’s stock.
• The dark irony of “saving” farmers by sparking a global trade war.
• BONUS: Why rich investors love market chaos (spoiler: they’re not buying Treasuries).

Whether you think this is Machiavellian genius or MAGA-themed madness, one thing’s clear: Trump’s economic playbook is rewriting the rules of politics—and the 2024 election might hinge on whether voters buy it.
