@aivainvesting What do you think about the escalation with China? They're pushing back hard and markets seem to like it suggesting that Trump may need to fold here on this bluff. If he keeps raising import tariffs on them, it only hurts the US more
@manofsteel12_11@returnoncap Legacy offers the lowest rates so why are customers leaving in droves for the last few decades while Stripe & Adyen are growing like weeds? That should answer your price question because it's proven to not be a valid bear thesis.
@IssacStocks@MichaelPBento That's because Trump is only trying to delay the inevitable. Iran knows this, they tried the diplomatic route even when US had killed all of their top leaders but the answer is escalation and more pain before de-escalation and a reshaping of the middle east.
@jzrdan@almostneonuk LfL is running below food inflation so negative growth. Now they're trying to run a franchise model in high footfall areas, execution risk there. Fair points you made though, GL with investment
@almostneonuk@jzrdan Yep, UK absolutely saturated with Greggs and losing its value perception + core demographic spending squeezed. No longer a growth stock and therefore not valued like one as it was in previous years.
$DXY potential breakout through 100.
Higher treasury yields and investors using the dollar as a safe haven during this conflict equals overall dollar strength against basket of currencies that are at risk of weakness due to higher O&G prices and restricted supply.
@aivainvesting Yeah I'm skeptical of AI ROI too from this build out. It can definitely go further, looks like we'll need to wait for easter weekend to see if the escalation does indeed happen.
@aivainvesting But saying that, there will be some big buying opportunities again soon depending how far we go. 22k for NDX would be a nice spot initially.
@aivainvesting Yep, been bearish for weeks but also prior to the strike, the markets looked very toppy (breadth and resistance) and needing a catalyst to go higher. I've got some shorts on index atm, also been very lucky with some nat gas & oil trades that I've exited
@amitisinvesting Trump really is a schizo.
The problem is that Iran holds the cards on how long this conflict lasts now - will they let Usrael off the hook so easily after killing all of the top brass including new Supreme Leader's family?
I think they'll hold the world hostage a little longer
@JKBTrades_@DeItaone Now imagine Iran now say no such talks have taken place and it tanks again. Market manipulation at its finest when we're trading based off social media posts
TALKS PROGRESS, STRIKES DELAYED
Trump: “The United States and Iran have had productive discussions over the past two days toward fully resolving hostilities in the Middle East. As talks continue this week, I’ve ordered a five-day pause on any military strikes against Iranian energy infrastructure, contingent on progress. Thank you. —President Donald J. Trump”
@0xCarlos_@DarioCpx Yeah at this point BOJ are sitting ducks and need to let market dictate price whether that means 180 or 200 Yen/Dollar. Takaichi's ultra loose monetary policy stance doesn't help either.
