Trump released a major tariff bomb in the early hours of Beijing time.
As soon as the news broke, U.S. stocks soared, but why did Bitcoin rise briefly and then start to fall? Most people chased in again, which is called a policy-driven benefit, but without support, the bearish trend is too strong, leading to Bitcoin's downward movement. This aligns with the main reason I've been advising everyone to short recently; recent posts should be enough to prove this point! Don’t just look at the surface; what you see could be a trap.
1. A 10% basic tariff will be imposed on all countries, effective April 5.
2. Trump believes that for countries with high tariffs on the U.S., a ‘50% discount’ reciprocal tariff will be applied, effective April 9.
According to Trump’s calculations, the tariffs by country are as follows:
The most concerning country for everyone is definitely China. We don’t know what algorithm Trump is using, but he surprisingly calculated China's tariff on the U.S. at 67%!
However, the U.S. will not temporarily impose additional tariffs on China, because Trump's calculated tariff on China is 34%.
During his current term, Trump has already imposed tariffs on China twice, bringing the U.S. basic tariff on China to 30%; and during his previous term, he also imposed tariffs on certain products, so over two terms, the U.S. tariff on China has reached about 34%.
Therefore, Trump’s conclusion that China's tariff on the U.S. is 67% likely comes from multiplying the U.S. tariff on China by 2, thus exaggerating China's high tariffs to rationalize the U.S. reciprocal measures.
Moreover, there is a very interesting point in the chart Trump provided: #Alpha2.0爆款冲击 .
