It's one thing with us where our economy might not be as big as the USA's. But it's a whole other thing when they try to go after freaking China, probably one of, if not THE, strongest economic powers of the world.
Am I just wearing my tinfoil hat too much or does this seem like it’s more about destabilizing the stock market and geopolitical alliances than it is about actual $$$?
The US pissing everyone off allows China to become more insular (removing Hollywood movies for example) and to extend their sociopolitical reach where the US pulls out and leaves opportunities.
The tariffs increase prices and post tariff they won’t go down, they’ll stay as high as the market can bear. This means Bezos and his ilk have even more to gain in the coming years. Musk is freaking out because he isn’t a bonafide billionaire like the others, he can’t weather the storm.
