My 503b is now up 14.6% since 1/1/25

Kudos to you for checking on it after yesterday’s bloodbath. It’s been a good year, not a great one. Hoping for great next year but can live with good. Anything less than good and the pitchforks come out

Trump may ease tariffs on bananas and coffee. Rationale: we don't grow bananas and only a negligible amount of coffee.

But I thought these were "reciprocal tariffs," aimed at getting exporting countries to treat us fairly. If you're going to have leverage over Colombia's treatment of our exports, you're gonna have to tariff coffee (oh, and cocaine).

 

Just another example of the lack of any logic to Tariff Man's entire concept.

The fastest and most effective way trump and his economic gurus found to address affordability was to decrease tariffs thereby affirming that tariffs are a tax on Americans.
