Trump's tax increase 'masterstroke' hides how many tricks?
Family, come and watch the show! Trump is once again wielding the big stick of tariffs, declaring a 100% tax on Chinese goods, which adds up to a total of 130% including previous increases. As a result, the U.S. stock market crashed immediately—evaporating over 700 billion dollars, and cryptocurrencies fared even worse, with Bitcoin dropping over 13%. A bunch of people were liquidated, losing all their capital, clutching their phones, trembling like they were sifting grain.
But here comes the outrageous part! Reports say that even before old Trump officially announced it, someone had already opened a short position to profit from the crash, raking in profits as the market plummeted and quickly withdrew most of their funds to escape. The timing was more precise than an alarm clock; as soon as the policy was hinted at, the scythe was swung at retail investors. This script is too unbelievable to write!
On the surface, it’s a trade policy of 'America First', but is it actually a 'precise harvest' targeting the stock market? After all, in this round of decline, ordinary investors lost money and cursed, while those who shorted made a windfall. It’s hard not to suspect it’s a premeditated 'sheep shearing'. Is this operation by old Trump genuinely for trade games, or is it a way to pave the road for his own people to earn quick money💰
One can only say that retail investors are always 'chasing highs and killing lows', while others have already calculated their moves before the policy was released. Do you think this wave is just a coincidence? Let’s discuss in the comments! $BTC
