A report early this week in the WSJ highlighted that China doesn’t think Trump will let the US stock market fall in a trade war and that’s tough to argue with given his comments today. On Fox Business he called 100% tariffs on China unsustainable and repeatedly said everything will be fine while also indicating he didn’t know what would happen.That’s been good enough to lift US stock futures back to flat on the day. S&P 500 futures had been 80 points lower a few hours ago and are now nearly flat.

💡 DMK Insight
In a world where trade wars feel like a high-stakes poker game, it seems China is betting on Trumpâs reluctance to let the market take a hit. The irony here is that while the President touts resilience, his own words reveal a delicate dance between bravado and reality. Investors should take note: when the stakes are this high, the marketâs pulse can swing wildly, and the last thing anyone wants is to be caught holding the bag when the music stops.
📮 Takeaway
In the unpredictable arena of trade, itâs not just about tariffs; itâs about whoâs willing to blink first.
