Tariff Tantrum: How Trump Killed the Bull Market (Again)
from The Unfiltered Arena · host Whispery
Buckle up, market watchers—because this week, Max and Lisa dissect how Donald Trump's tariff rampage took the S&P 500 on a bungee jump with no cord.Between a 10% correction, a full-blown 20% bear market, and tariffs that read like a Mob protection racket, the only thing growing faster than economic anxiety is the list of countries pissed off at the U.S.Lisa unpacks the geopolitical fallout like a measured analyst (because someone has to), while Max, frothing at the mouth, takes you on a tour through economic masochism, tariff war theater, and China’s 84% retaliatory flex that basically screamed: “You wanna play rough? Let’s play.”Note: This project explores the new creative potential unlocked by generative AI, showcasing how a single person, in just two hours, can curate (not create, but curate) a polished podcast series. I recognize the critiques around AI-generated content and the potential for digital clutter but invite you to take a listen on your next walk or drive and see what you think.
