Having spent four years in Japan when I was in the military, the reason Japanese don't take in US made cars is because millions of people don't need to drive a car. Japan's train system is one of the best in the world. Also, space in Japan is limited so everything where people live is small and compact. That makes parking a car limited and expansive. So a lot of Japanese don't see a need in having a car in the first place, especially a US made car, which takes up a lot of space where there isn't a whole lot of.

[SamIIs]

I don't want an American car! I want a Japanese one!
I need to work every day.

[georgefredriksen]

I am sure there’s a lot of countries that would love to trade with China and leave the US out

[ltribley]

Manufacturing only accounts for about 10% of the US economy.

Other than military, we don't have any statistically significant products to export.

Even oir once powerful agricultural export market has dried up as China shifted to contracts with other - BRICS & BRI - countries, amd these countries no longer buy our commodities. Farms are closing, going bankrupt and WE have to import food to meet our needs.

Here it's getting more expensive.

In the Global South there is a food surplus (though distribution issies exist) and food is cheaper.

I sold all my stocks 2 months ago. Now when it crashes ill buy then

[JamesWilliamson-wy]

If you have gold. Hold on to it. This is the situation that pushes prices UP.

Do you think there are no other markets to buy what we were ? They are already delivering to newer markets ! China isn't buying crude from us. They are getting it direct from Canada now. We were the middle man.

[chapagawa]

The bottom 50% of Americans own only 1% of the equities market, so they are probably not crying a river for the 1% who own 50% of the market.

[ahberlowkz]

The same way we have pride in America, all these other countries have pride in their own so we should assume that there will be some backlash.

[therealschoolpsychologist]

I sold all my index funds last Friday. Every single share.

[Lucianomaia]

Futures are up by about 1% as of now, 4:46 PM Pacific.
Do futures even matter in this climate?
Last night, futures were down by 3-4% for S&P500, and the day ended at -0.23%.
I am betting that this +1% will turn into -2 by tomorrow's closing.
I am thinking that the S&P will go down some 5 to 8% before it stabilizes.

[bitcoinboy]

Most of us aren’t stock holders so we don’t gaf

[benettnash]

There is no way to "go back to the old system", do you get it?

[robertnardone]

0 % interest rates and printing money has consequences

[LesterThomad]

Bank crisis is next, stocks are bought with loans, companies go broke and can't pay 2008 all over

[daddad]

If this may be the final round, then each side may be looking for a KO. This may get nasty if so, China in addition to deval subsequently has the options for dumping treasuries and backing its currency with gold.

[andrewvisiko]

Trump’s obsession with what other countries charge to import American goods misses the bigger picture, the U.S. isn’t an export-driven economy. We’re the world’s largest consumer market and the issuer of the global reserve currency, which gives us enormous privilege but also means our goods are naturally more expensive abroad due to currency strength.

If foreign nations made it cheap to import U.S. goods, they’d undermine their own domestic industries and lose competitiveness. That’s why the trade imbalance exists. It’s structural, not just policy-driven. The U.S. benefits by importing cheaper goods, keeping inflation lower, and maintaining global demand for the dollar, essentially exporting our inflation abroad.

We should be humbled by the fact that the only reason we’ve been able to run insane deficits for decades is because the world still buys our debt. Tariffs won’t bring manufacturing back overnight, and pretending we’re still a 1950's style industrial powerhouse is wishful thinking.

It’s like saying “Yeah, I’ve maxed out this card, I can’t pay it off, but I’m gonna keep using it and by the way, you better lower my interest rate or I’ll stop swiping.” That’s the U.S. in a nutshell right now.

We’ve maxed out the national “credit card” with decades of deficit spending, low rates, and cheap debt. But instead of tightening our belt, we’re trying to manipulate the terms through monetary policy, tariffs, or political pressure and expecting the rest of the world to keep playing along.

At some point, the lender (global markets) starts questioning the borrower’s credibility. And when that happens, rates go up not because the Fed raises them but because trust erodes.

The whole system only works because of that trust in the U.S. dollar. If that confidence ever cracks, we’re not negotiating anymore we’re defaulting, either outright or through inflation.

[poserexposer]

Dude last name is Metre. This guy can measure the markets. He was born for this.

[adrianturner]

I think you might find that the rest of the world are sick of Trump and we're not playing anymore. We will circumnavigate the US and bullying tactics. Trading with one another and leave Trump States of America aside. Trust has ended and will never return, at least not in my lifetime. Bad miscalculation.. huge! Good luck TSA
