A new element has come into play. Now that Trump has been confronted with the TACO trade, will he be emboldened to actually follow his instincts and crash the economy. Or will he keep chickening out.

Wall Street's newest trade:

Trump
Always
Chickens
Out

Trump backing off from deporting farm workers and hotel workers. Turns out mass deportations actually impacts things.

Every time I check into a Hotel (which isn't all that often) I go out of my way to clean things up for the Housekeeping Staff.

Part of it is because I am a certifiable VIRGO. But the other part is that I can't imagine being one of these folks that spends their day cleaning bathrooms and beds all day long . . . just as I can't imagine being a farm worker in the hot fields of the Central Valley picking crops all day long.

The lack of empathy for these people on this message board is truly stunning.

It's the art of the deal, man.

I threw the image of that scribbly language into copilot and asked for translation:


Here's the English translation of the Persian text you provided:

Translation

"Trump backs down after Iran's firm warning.
After the Islamic Republic warned that if the United States attacked Iran's energy infrastructure, it would target the energy infrastructure of the entire region, Trump backed off and said he had ordered the attack to be postponed."

Are people fading the TACO?

Do they not believe the Mango Messiah?

What a difference an hour makes.

Already 62 points off the high of the day.

As predictable as a Republican president ruining the economy.

He clearly thought that IRAN would have folded by now.
That's why they never developed a realistic plan (let alone coalition) to keep the Strait open.

Incompetence x 1,000,000,000

The science of TACO:

This is Wild.

Deutsche Bank has developed an index that helps to predict the next TACO by Trump.

It has proven effective in previous big Trump pivots.

" The "Pressure index" combines one-month change in approval ratings, one-year inflation expectations and performance of the S&P 500 & t-bill yields.

The higher it goes, the greater the chances of TACO"
