Wall Street has been whipsawed for more than a week by President Trump's every word about tariffs and now the Iran war and oil prices.
Trump is facing accusations of using his power to deliberately manipulate the markets.
The scrutiny started with a tale of two social media posts. On one Wednesday, shortly after the U.S. stock market opened, Trump posted on his Truth Social network in all caps: "THIS IS A GREAT TIME TO BUY!!!"
Less than four hours after his post, Trump said on Truth Social that he would pause the harshest of his tariffs on most countries.
Stocks immediately skyrocketed in relief, with the Dow closing up almost 3,000 points " meaning that any investors who had followed Trump's advice in the morning and bought into the stock market right away would have made quite a bit of money by the end of the day.
The Dow went up a thousand points again today. After Trump TACOed on bombing Iran's power plants and said Iran was negotiating a ceasefire. (They are not)
If you look at the monthly trend you can see that every week Trumpy's says something the stocks go up a little then back down. The trend is always down tho.
Soon to be named the "Lewzer Bowl".
