This is a bad move and will tantamount to giving in to Trump. Trump will then become more arrogant and gets more aggressive in the future to target countries which he doesn't like.

The US only accounts for about 50% of world trade. If all the other countries will co-operate, there can be a way to transit away from the US, albeit with much pain during the beginning.
 
There are already calls to boycott American goods, products and services, especially in Canada and Europe and soon to be, Asia. America Inc like KFC, McDonalds, P&G, GM, Ford, etc, will get the hit. Walmart had already closed several stores whilst Stellantis had just laid of 900 staffs in Canada and America.

I wouldn't call it balls, it's just the final struggles of a dying fish out of water. :cool:

That’s BlackRock Inc. CEO Larry Fink, in an onstage interview Monday at the Economic Club of New York, where he warned that stocks were likely to see further downside in reaction to President Donald Trump’s sweeping tariff policies.


Stocks were flipping between gains and losses in violently choppy trade Monday, after major indexes ended last week with their biggest two-day plunge since March 2020, when equities collapsed in response to the onset of the coronavirus pandemic.

The S&P 500 fell a cumulative 10.5% on Thursday and Friday, after Trump revealed sweeping tariffs on U.S. trading partners in a Rose Garden event.
