How much would markets dump if CPI came in hot, yields blew out, and the market realized that tariffs DO cause price increases, and Trump is not backing off from the ones he just put on last week?

Tariffs are taxes ONLY paid by the rich.

Globocorp has spent 50 years pricing their products not AT ALL based on costs, but based instead on the maximum amount goysoomers will pay.
This is the bit midwits miss. They seem to think globocorp has been operating on a cost basis when this is total fantasy.
$180 Nikes will stay $180 because that's the max price they could get the entire time.

Check the stock on these companies. They are just less profitable. Pricing will remain the same in their case. Smaller, non totally evil operations will likely raise prices and become more profitable.
That's me. I'm rich. I pay the tariffs, but since I operate on a cost basis and not a scam, exploitation basis, I have plenty of wiggle room.

most retarded nonsense ive read all month.
>Tariffs are taxes ONLY paid by the rich.
wrong.
>Globocorp has spent 50 years pricing their products not AT ALL based on costs, but based instead on the maximum amount goysoomers will pay.
that's basic capitalism. goods are priced at what the market will bear.
>Check the stock on these companies. They are just less profitable.
"these companies." what companies? what are you even referring to?

I feel like if he hadn't ever spoken about rates to begin with Powell would have lowered them a while ago considering the fed doesn't want to look like a whipping boy listening to the whims of the president as it would shake market confidence, and the louder Trump cries about it, the more Powell stones up in his corner

>>60619223
You are poor. I am rich.
Now, I have paid a tariff. As in I wrote a check directly for the tariff.

Now, how many tariffs have you paid given that you are poor?
>Goods are priced at what the market will bear.
Exactly. So they aren't going up.

Pic related is when you are a shit evil corporation maxing profits with NO BASIS AT ALL in the cost for decades and then tariffs start.
You simply become less profitable.
Your margin disappears.
Your stock goes down.

>>60619248
>You are poor. I am rich.
mentally ill LARP. if you are rich then why are you still working?
>Now, how many tariffs have you paid given that you are poor?
i work in corporate accounting at a major pharma wholesaler. hint hint, nigger retard.

>>60619225
At this point he's basically just building up a buffer in the markets for when he gets replaced after his term ends. Since whoever Trump installs after will inevitability fuck things up longer term.

>>60619248
also here's a screenshot of nike's operating margin over the last decade. do you understand what operating margin is, mr. welfare NEET larper?

>>60619259
It's Sunday retard. I own a business.
Always working, never working.

So you've never paid a tariff. Got it.
>>60619267
>pic related
Literally exactly what I said. Their margins are tanking. So goes the stock price.
Do you even look at your own posts?

>>60619259
>I work midlevel for a psychopathic global corporation please please please don't you see the tarffis are hurting you.
lmao can't make it up.

This guy ran off but I'll continue for young'ns that are here legitimately to learn as I once was.

So...the tarff is an additional cost TO NIKE because they pay the cost. Globocorp (NIKE) pays this tariff, not you.

Without room to move their prices up AND/OR maintain a relative volume at a higher price their margin goes down because they can't make up the cost on a relative basis.
Nike is especially susceptible to this because of their markering/promotion based price points that they've kept very high for decades.

So, their margin shrinks. Thus their profitability on a relative return basis. So investors go elsewhere as they have been doing.
It doesn't mean Nike isn't still profitable. It means the are substantially less profitable and investors dump stocks and move to where they think a better risk/return ratio exists.

It doesn't hurt everyone the same. But it hurts NIKE, APPL, and other over priced brands that have maxxed out their margins for decades.

Another example. American Spirits has been growing a lot in the last decades, even at their premium price. They cost like twice as much.
But now...given that they grow all tobacco in the USA, they just received a massive relative benefit equal to the tariffs being paid on their imported tobacco (which is not all their tobacco by any means).
However, now American Spirits competitor has a cost that America Spirit does not.

trump would panic and do whatever it takes to pump the stock market, so buy the dip

>>60619497
>But it hurts NIKE, APPL, and other over priced brands
so it hurts all the companies that represent USA in the imaginary collective

>>60619556
These people are the enemy of the American people and owned by international financiers and holding companies.
Their CEOs are paid well to sell out their fellow citizen.

Also, this is a shift of the tax burden from poor to rich if you've noticed. And not only just "rich" but the corporate type of rich. The worst of all.
It's the best type of entirely unavoidable rich tax.
This is why the seething is at levels never before seen.

>>60619556
It basically tells these companies that they may operate however they want, anywhere they want, but they will have to pony up to the American people in the process.

It's impossible to be against them unless you are a low IQ, impulse driven retard with no children.

>>60619223
These companies have effective brand monopolies because of government spending.

>>60619586
Or if you don't want shittier goods/services provided by fewer companies at higher prices

>>60620037
We got to these few companies because of this you absolute drooling retard.
