Now they come to an END….
🚨 TOMORROW WILL BE THE WORST DAY FOR MARKETS IN 2026!!
Trump just announced new tariffs at the World Economic Forum…
Meanwhile, the U.S. Supreme Court is holding a vote to cancel the tariffs altogether.
If you own stocks, crypto, or literally any risk asset, read this carefully:
Tariffs stay = DUMP
Tariffs removed = DUMP
THERE IS NO BULL CASE HERE.
And most people still don’t understand this.
Before we even get to tariffs, look at where the market already is.
→ The Buffett Indicator (Total Market Cap to GDP) just touched ~224%.
That’s the highest level EVER.
Well above the Dot-Com peak (~150%) and higher than the 2021 top.
→ The Shiller P/E is sitting near 40.
This has only happened ONCE in the last 150 years, right before the market collapse in 2000.
This market is priced for perfection.
It can’t survive a hiccup - let alone a trade shock.
Now here’s where it gets dangerous…
1⃣ TODAY: TRUMP AT DAVOS
Trump is speaking at the World Economic Forum in Davos.
Global leaders, CEOs, and markets are listening for one thing: trade policy direction.
Any hint of escalation or defiance will be taken as a green light for volatility.
And the risks are already stacked.
2⃣ THE “GREENLAND” ESCALATION
10% tariffs on European allies (France, Germany, UK, etc.) set to begin Feb 1.
These directly hit multinationals trading at ~22x earnings.
There is ZERO margin for error.
3⃣ THE CONSTITUTIONAL FLASHPOINT
Whispers are growing that the Supreme Court may rule Trump’s IEEPA tariffs ILLEGAL.
Anyone who’s been around long enough knows what that means:
THERE IS NO POSITIVE OUTCOME.
Let’s walk through it.
SCENARIO A: TARIFFS STAND (INFLATION + MARGIN SHOCK)
→ Corporate margins get crushed.
Companies can’t push 10–20% cost increases onto already exhausted consumers.
They absorb it.
→ History reminder: In 2002, Bush’s steel tariffs wiped out 200,000 jobs in steel-using industries - more than the entire steel workforce.
Markets dumped.
→ In 2018, mere tariff threats triggered instant sell-offs (CAC 40 down 1.7% in a single day, Apple off 2.6%).
Bottom line: 2026 earnings expectations are about 15% too optimistic.
SCENARIO B: TARIFFS VOIDED (LEGAL + SOLVENCY SHOCK)
→ The Refund Bomb: If tariffs are ruled illegal, the U.S. government potentially owes billions back to importers.
→ The Smoot-Hawley Echo: In 1930, markets fell 16% before the bill was even signed - purely on anticipation.
→ If courts rule against Trump, the administration won’t just accept it.
Expect Section 232, executive orders, or emergency powers to block refunds.
Markets fear legal chaos and fiscal instability more than they fear taxes.
So pick your poison:
A margin-destroying trade war
OR
A constitutional crisis with insolvency risk
This isn’t a surprise.
This is a known unknown.
I know newer investors don’t want to hear this, but after 20+ years in markets, one truth stands out:
Retail prays for the rally to never end.
Professionals wait patiently for the floor to give way.
Wealth isn’t built at euphoric highs - it’s built when fear takes over.
I’ve called every major market top and bottom over the last decade.
When I make my next move, I’ll post it here publicly.
If you want to outperform the others, just follow me and turn on notifications.
You’ll wish you did it earlier.
THE HYPERUNIT WHALE JUST LOST ALL OF HIS GAINS IN 24 HOURS
The Hyperunit Whale, who is long over $800M of ETH, SOL and BTC, is down over $55 MILLION in the past day and has roundtripped all of his gains since the start of Donald Trump’s struggle for Greenland with Denmark.
He is now in the same position as he was at the start of the year. Will he make it back?
₿REAKING: Coinbase CEO Brian Armstrong debates French Central Bank Governor about Bitcoin.
"Bitcoin is a decentralized protocol. There is no issuer of it. Bitcoin is more independent. There is no company, country, or individual who controls it”
I'm Chiitan, Japan's crazy mascot.
I'm the god of advertising who was born to drive out advertising in the world.
I don't have any products or information to recommend, so please watch the video and laugh.
I hope you have a good day today.
ALTSEASON NEEDS ONE THING:
BTC Dominance to roll over.
Last time this setup broke:
$BTC.D dumped 36%.
We’ve pierced the trendline twice…
still no breakdown.
But ETH is already holding up better than BTC.
Rotation starting?
Maybe.
Stay cautious. Alts follow, they don’t lead.
$100,000,000,000 wiped out from the total crypto market cap at it falls 4% today to $3.1T.
🔴 $BTC - $89,500
🔴 $ETH -$3,000
🔴 $BNB - $890
Is this the start of a decline or a dip?
