Bought at $12-13 then sold at $54-56. Should have sold near 60-70 after that one hedgefund pump and dump before market opened during the 2021 squeeze . Wanted to see a run to $100 but Glad I got out, never trusted AA when he allowed that to happen.

Xi intentionally antagonized Trump to get the tariffs raised to a point that Americans would feel the pain sooner, than later. The US is living off stockpiles of warehoused goods. When that runs out the dominos of the economy will fall. It's not just iPhones. It's a little widget that a business depends on. Check the AA batteries in your remote control. They were made in China. Shipping and logistics industries. 40% of American goods are imported from China. The longer China waits the better the negotiating stance they find themselves in.

This is the very reason why the typical aveage investor loses to the wider indexes - they always chase the "hot" trade. The basic concept is buy low and sell high right? Yet as the US markets dropped, people rushed to sell (low). Now they are seeing gold up, CHF and Euro up and rushing to buy those. (high). Yet if you look at long term charts currencies bounce back an forth all the time - they are not good long term investments. Gold typically has short but very big spikes, and then goes down or flat for much longer periods of time. For gold to be comparable to SP500, you need to have the right time windows, otherwise it loses big. Another way to put it is SP500 returns are much more consistent. If you were a "smart" investor, you would have chased gold in 2023 when Moody's downgraded US debt to AA+. Look at the charts, that's when the real run started. The people who bought up gold are now selling it to you high to buy stocks on the low.

I mean, in the realm of modern finance, we could create some fairly safe alternatives with synthetic debt obligations. Take bonds from the top 20 AAA-AA credit rated companies and sovereigns, bundle and slice them into tranches, sell the top tranche. You essentially end up with a super AAA tranche that is safer than any one AAA holding that can be diversified across denomination, country, industry, region, interest rate, counterparty, and pretty much any type of risk you can think of. It would take an awful lot of defaults before that top AAA tranche would get hit. First you would have to have defaults, then they have to claw through all the built in reserves and then put enough losses on all lower tranches to even cause a loss in the AAA tranche.

Tariffs kept high paying jobs in the USA, starting around 1789, for over 200 years. Until Presidents Bush and Clinton repealed them to promote free trade. Under 1^(st) Bush's North American free trade Jobs started moving to Mexico & Canada in the 1990s that is when Detroit started to become poor. Under Clinton's worldwide free trade jobs started moving to China etc. Then the Northeast and Mid-West became the rust belt. US hourly wages cannot complete with those earning a $10 or $20 a day. While tariffs should not be increased during a depression during a normal time like now, they protect jobs. High paying US jobs started to disappear about the same time tariffs disappeared. The auto and steel tariffs are still in effect and started to bring back manufacturing! Tariffs make foreign goods too expensive to buy so people, in the USA, will buy USA made goods and more US jobs are created. The profit margins for foreign made goods are higher than margin for those made in USA **so US businessman who import goods will make less profit so they try to scare people about tariffs**; **they cannot raise prices too much or product is unsellable**. While businesses that make goods in USA will expand. The change over to making goods here and creating high paying US jobs will take several years. Tariffs will hurt those on Wall Street that invested overseas and made a lot of money because of free trade.

Just using the current [AAA Bloomberg indices.](https://www.bloomberg.com/markets/rates-bonds/government-bonds/us). I prefer MMD or even MMA scales - Bloomberg's scale is still a work in progress, but getting better. Easiest to access for this conversation. But that is the AAA. There are still plenty of money good long munis trading cheaper. Mass St GO 5% of 2055 trading around a 4.75. They are AA but I have zero credit worries on State GOs. Go into essential service bonds like water/sewer and you can probably do even better. Your 3.90 guesstimate is not bad, to be fair. I think long term Muni/UST ratios are around 85-90%. But there are many times where munis get to 100% of UST in the long end. Times of volatility like now are one of them.

For me, personally, Southwest completing upending their business model to align almost 100% with every single other airline and have utterly no differentiator is a huge part of the reason they're not my default airline anymore. I know they're still operating - for now - as they always have, but pretty soon, if you go to their site and book a flight, you could just swap out the logo and there will be no difference between them and AA, United, Delta, etc. 15 years of A List preferred and Companion Pass and I just applied for status match at other airlines.

Here, I’m just gonna have an AI explain this because you seem real confused and I don’t wanna type out what is just basic reality for you: When Congress passes a spending bill and tax revenue falls short, the U.S. government runs a budget deficit, typically financed by issuing Treasury bonds. If there aren’t enough bond purchasers at the current interest rate, several scenarios can unfold: 1. **Higher Interest Rates**: The Treasury may offer higher yields to attract buyers, increasing borrowing costs. This can ripple through the economy, raising rates for consumers and businesses, potentially slowing growth. 2. **Federal Reserve Intervention**: The Fed could step in, buying bonds (quantitative easing) to stabilize markets and keep rates manageable. This increases the money supply, risking inflation if overdone. Recent Fed actions, like maintaining rates between 5.25-5.5% in 2024, show caution to balance inflation and growth. 3. **Market Disruptions**: If demand remains low despite higher rates, bond prices could drop, signaling reduced confidence in U.S. debt. This might pressure the dollar’s value and raise import costs, though the U.S.’s AAA/AA+ rating (S&P, Fitch) and reserve currency status make this less likely short-term. 4. **Fiscal Adjustments**: Congress could cut spending or raise taxes, but political gridlock often delays this. The debt ceiling, if not raised, could force prioritization of payments, risking default—though this has never occurred. 5. **Foreign Buyer Dynamics**: Foreign investors (e.g., China, Japan) hold ~30% of U.S. debt. If they reduce purchases (as China has gradually), domestic buyers or the Fed must fill the gap, potentially at higher rates. In practice, the U.S. benefits from strong demand for Treasuries due to their perceived safety. However, sustained deficits—$1.8 trillion in 2024, per CBO—could strain this if economic conditions worsen or confidence erodes.

>But I don't see them going fully isolationist forever as that doesn't benefit them even remotely. You seem very misinformed. China hasn't done anything isolationist. In fact it's the opposite. They've been making calls and holding meetings with other countries just before the tariffs were announced and ever since. The sunday before Trump's tariffs were announced, the trade ministers of China, Japan, and Korea met and agreed to push forward on a free trade agreement. The week before that, their foreign ministers met to discuss trilateral cooperation. The EU trade minister, the French foreign minister, and the Portugese foreign minister visited Beijing separately in the weeks before Liberation Day. Since then the EU has [changed its position](https://www.msn.com/en-sg/news/other/eu-won-t-decouple-from-china-as-condition-for-reaching-trade-deal-with-trump/ar-AA1DoFSt) on China. >Von der Leyen, whose hawkish stance on China won plaudits from Joe Biden's administration, has in recent weeks moderated her tone. The Commission president now speaks about a "transactional" foreign policy that can lead to constructive engagement with nations that do not share the bloc's fundamental values, like China. >A few days after Trump announced his self-styled "reciprocal tariffs" and sent markets crashing, von der Leyen held a phone call with Chinese Premier Li Qiang >"In response to the widespread disruption caused by the US tariffs, President von der Leyen stressed the responsibility of Europe and China, as two of the world's largest markets, to support a strong reformed trading system, free, fair and founded on a level playing field," the Commission said in its official read-out. Xi recently visited Vietnam, Malaysia, and Cambodia to promote cooperation and trade. Since April 2, China hasn't tariffed or imposed export restrictions on anyone except the US. They haven't dumped goods in foreign markets to make up the shortfall in trade either, as they want to maintain good relations with the rest of the world. They even filed complaints with the WTO, an organisation the US seems to simply ignore the existence of now. It's the US that's gone isolationist.

Alcoa $AA is up 6.5% today. The aluminum commodity giant is near a 5 yr support level going back to Jan 2021. Alcoa would be a very interesting stock to add if I was a little more optimistic about Trump admitting defeat on his self imposed trade war. I'm going to be watching Alcoa closely as a potential buy as I could see some commodity stocks mooning on a bit of tariff trade relief.

Here's from ChatGPT with sources Frasier Institute and Investopedia: Canada’s fiscal position is relatively strong among G7 nations. It holds AAA credit ratings from Moody’s and S&P, and an AA+ from Fitch, reflecting high creditworthiness. In 2023–24, the federal deficit was C$61.9 billion (2.1% of GDP), exceeding targets due to one-time costs like Indigenous settlements and pandemic-related expenses. However, Canada’s net debt-to-GDP ratio is the lowest in the G7, thanks in part to substantial assets in the Canada and Quebec Pension Plans. While gross debt levels are higher, Canada’s fiscal outlook remains favorable compared to its peers.

They don’t own any planes and are burning cash. Likely outcome is bankruptcy and a reorganization. The integration costs are not going to make sense for any of those airlines to tackle in a depressed travel environment; it would be better for an alliance similar to what AA had in the NE.

If the smart money already moved would the market not already been further in decline? That’s precisely what I’m trying to figure out. But how do you measure smart money movement? I have 2 data points from the past: 2011 U.S. S&P Downgrade: After S&P downgraded the U.S. from AAA to AA+ in August 2011, U.S. stock markets dropped sharply. The S&P 500 fell about 6.7% on the first trading day after the downgrade, and volatility spiked, with the VIX index nearly doubling during the month. However, U.S. Treasury prices actually rose as investors sought safety, driving yields down from 3.4% to below 2% between April and early September. 2023 U.S. Fitch Downgrade: When Fitch downgraded the U.S. in August 2023, the S&P 500 lost 1.38% in a day, the Nasdaq had its worst day in five months, and global markets also fell. Treasury yields rose as prices dropped, reflecting higher perceived risk

Time to dump fed bonds and invest elsewhere. The liquidity crisis is coming for us. Qatar is AA rated, pays 40 basis points over US bonds, has zero personal freedoms and is also run by an autocratic emperor. Feels just like home.

You understand that this will turn US credit rating to AA, and it is going to send inflation astronomically high? The key is to keep the US dollar from losing value and for other countries to continue to invest into the US. This is not as good as you think it is.

People usually say things like "Look at Europe in 1933" when they want to warn others about what's going on in US politics. But I would say "Look at Russia from 2000 to the present day". This is literally the playbook, and the US is currently too far now to turn away from the inevitable. Election fraud is the most important chapter of the playbook. In Russia they have had elections with regular intervals ever since Putin took power. But the elections are always fixed. All real opposition is either put in prison or killed - look at Navalny as an obvious example - and only a few controlled opposition politicians are allowed to run, though they are essentially just for show. Putin always wins with around 75% of the vote. This is what the US will have now. The midterm election will be a MAGA victory because the elections are already fixed. The next election in 2028 will either have Trump winning a third term, or another MAGA candidate will become president until 2037 and further consolidate power under the office of the president. The US is not a democracy anymore, and anyone believing there will be free and fair elections in 2026 and 2028 and onwards are living in a fantasy world. It's not even been 100 days yet, and look how far they are already. You want some sources?

AA 

dimethylhyperspace

For those seeking some actual clarity: https://www.msn.com/en-us/money/markets/shifting-signals-on-tech-tariffs-fuel-fresh-trade-uncertainty/ar-AA1CNFBq -Chips and electronics likely to remain tarriffs, but outside of the broad 125% general tarriffs and the 20% fent tarriffs. - Mango is going to go on the record tomorrow at some point and clarify. So I'd say, it's safe to believe that chips etc tarriffs will not be equal to or higher than general tarriffs, and that it's likely that we get a big swing in one direction or the other on the middle of the day tommorrow when he does the presser. If we look to the past, this looks pretty identical to what happened last Monday. News released, white house pumps the brakes, waits a day or two, and then likely confirms. The move will be based on expectations though, so it's not some automatic likely hood of a rip. Honestly, it'll probably be a reaction to how the market opens more than anything. Opening up significantly could be a setup for disappointment, and down significantly could be a setup for positive surprise.

It’s arguable if AA or DEI is good or not, but there’s no doubt that Trump and Vance are bad. Simple.

It’s not like the U.S. suddenly turned into a Banana Republic. Investors still buy Treasuries like soccer moms buy pumpkin spice lattes. Even if the bonds were downgraded to AA, it’s more of a political slap than an economic collapse. The U.S. still owns the printing press and the global reserve currency
