I've already done this, and its in the DD. You can do this if you dont believe me. Again, this is ECON101. Im not a genius, I just paid attention in class.
They print money Fiat becomes more worthless Stonks go up I don't make the rules *JAPAN'S ECON PACKAGE TO BE 21.3T YEN OVERALL: GOVERNMENT
Maybe they should respond to demand drop with a price drop? ECON 101?
Where are you getting this info from? Your ECON 101 textbook? Or just pulling it out your 🍑? For a commodity, when prices go up at a constant demand, demand goes down. But if the demand goes up at constant supply, **prices go up** And for the stock market, prices are directly tied to demand, not the other way around. You are mistaking fomo for a rational market
Everything I was taught at ECON was a hoax
As I said, open ECON 101. Seems like you trying to discuss subject that you have zero clues about.
lol I’m glad you know better than one of the best economist in the world. Let me guess, you never took EXON at uni? Unemployment is not because of tariffs. And yes, lowering interest rates does help with jobs. ECON 101.
I mean, I didn’t need my BUS / ECON degree to tell me consumers pay tariffs, not the importer. But at this point I’m genuinely curious if he really believes importers pay tariffs for access to a country’s market and no one around him has the balls to tell him otherwise.
ECON101 was always too many characters and numbers for this guy.
You're absolutely correct, these bozos have spent too much time thinking they're professors because they took an ECON 100 course 🤣 Unbelievable, working class people literally want the thing that's stealing their purchasing power, great thinking guys
I'm so sorry you wasted your time with the -10 IQ average WSB spawn these days, one day they'll learn to read or at least understand ECON 101
Taxing something generally leads to having less of that something. ECON101
But my ECON textbooks say I should be right even if My last 10 puts were wrong
Never heard of it. My ECON 101 book was actually a collection of chalk boards
ECON STRONG 
>JAPAN ECON MINISTER AKAZAWA: NO CHANGE TO JAPAN'S STANCE OF DEMANDING AN ELIMINATION OF U.S. TARIFFS Trade talks going well
There is less than zero chance of that. No offense but anyone who’s taken ECON 102 would never act like this is a serious possibility. No amount of money printing would be worse than a default.
It’s like company’s are responding to tariffs the way we’re taught in ECON101. Mind. Blown. /s
Its amazing that people think economics moves as fast as basketball game. Their will be economic forces pushing back against a collapse as much as forces will be pushing it into existence. To all that happens within a news cycle or even a quarter is just showing how little you actually kmow about ECON. I mean just loom at 2008....we reached "ATH" before the collapse as well. All this volatility isnt a good thing and is forcasting a correction.

Wow, it's crazy how just yesterday he was talking about eggs being down eighty-two billion percent and how America is so much winning. And today it's "THIS AIN'T MY ECON BISH!!" I would tell Trump if he were any other person to pick an effing lane to be in, but it's Trump. He lacks the ability to understand what those words in that arrangement even mean. Whatever, y'all get ready for a recession, because the bus driver is taking the short route to the bottom of the Grand Canyon and we all stuck in this bus with him. It's just amazing to see this kind of ignorance given so much power. Honestly the sane option is to have our country NOT continue to be the economic powerhouse that it once was.
Have you perhaps considered taking a course called introduction to macroeconomics (ECON201)?
You really don't know much about how economics really works do you? Our economy was finally getting strong again until you voted that moron into office. That is on you and your idiot MAGA community that seems to want to destroy this country. Good work, as it will do exactly that if Trump keeps doing this stupid shit. Then again, he probably took the same ECON101 course that you did..... or maybe he just paid someone to take it and missed it completely, which is the more likely scenario.
Term 1 Trump had his antics... nothing like Term 2. It felt like he had a true interest in listening to the business community to shape policy that would drive more growth. He was a pro-business president. Tax Cuts. Legitimate tax cuts for the working class. This was sensical stimulus that has heavily increased the strength of the US economy over the last 7 years. Corporate tax cuts were also huge for attracting foreign investment. Everyone hates trickle down ECON, yet tariffs are the antithesis of their "Trickle Down is a Lie" argument. Every positive argument used for trickle down economics is currently being used for reasons why we shouldn't support tariffs. TBF sales & consumption taxes are highly regressive. Before Covid lockdowns we had an incredibly strong economy. Things we had not seen since the early 2000s were coming back. Every economic metric that says strong economy was flashing green. Unemployment, Labor Force Participation, Low inflation, strong GDP growth, all simultaneously. Trump was the first president to raise the spotlight on China's business practices in a meaningful way. Biden followed through with more tariffs on China. Lets be very clear, China does not play by the rules. The idea to diversify our supply chain out of china is wise. We also need import restrictions on their goods/services in critical infrastructure for security reasons. The first term China tariffs were targeting specific industries. That could help achieve this goal. It's astonishing we have held up as long as we have through this high inflation period. Term 2 Trump feels like a corruption speed run. Crypto grift. Destroying the sentiment of the business community during AI boom. Anti-trade. Tariff war with the world. Tariffs on/off stock manipulation. The lies from the administration on tariffs. The rhetoric and aggression towards other nations is alarming. Clearly offending much of the world in one swoop. US was the safe-haven investment for the world.
Its cute you think there is critical thinking in University, at least outside of Engineering. I remember getting easy A or A+ in courses outside of the Eng faculty. Sittng in Psyc or ECON or the COMS writing course, watching the fARTs students rabbidly flipping through their recipe cards and making updates, then the color of beats after the midterm screaming in the halls because there was a couple questions on the exam that were no exactly the same as ones from quizzes or practice questions. Your Doctor missed your diagnosis because all they ever knew how to do was memorize and had connections to get into med, or ridiculously rich parents, likely both. Guess thats why trump feels mericans are better off tightening bolts in auto plants than working in high end career fields.
Lady in red has never heard of **stagflation** - that's ECON101. What is she doing in what appears to be an economic panel?
ECON1 Tariffs are inherently inflationary since they by design inflate the price of the good. Income tax doesn't inflate the price even if they lower purchasing power.
ECON101 - Taxes are not inflationary.
Yes. You MUST have "slave labor" to get the juicy margins. OR....you must charge twice as much for the shirt. This is literally ECON101, the absolute fucking BASICS of how the global economy works. And you just failed. But the term "slave labor" is sort of misleading. Cost of living isn't the same everywhere. Making $10 a day in a factory in Vietnam sounds awful, but then you hear that rent is only $150. Your opinions REEK of American privilege and ignorance.
That's what I'm worried about. But if it costs TSLA $36k (hopefully more with the new tariffs), their sales are going to drop hard as it is, and they're claiming to increase production - which means too many cars, not enough demand, and ECON 101 claims that means prices should drop. Margins are slim as it is. Can only pump for so long.
Literally quoting what Trump is saying. I am doing fine shorting the market since the formula comes out, that’s like ECON 101 last minute assignment shit
LMFAO if you actually thought 🥭 would be good for the market …. This shit is LITERALLY ECON 101 …and if you don’t believe me, feel free to go rewatch the classroom scene Ferris Bueller’s day off… Almost as if we already knew tariffs were dumb AF LMFAO
They know it will take decades to rebuild factories here if even possible. The only way to realistically bring back the production of some strategic goods is to lure corporations with massive incentives and subsidies. It is an ECON 101 problem. But, what matters are the vibes.
This isn't advanced derivatives here, this is basic supply and demand from ECON 101. You have to be a complete idiot or NEVER HAVE GONE TO THE CLASSES YOU WERE ENROLLED IN to understand why Trump is so fucking stupid.
Character? Who insulted that? Jfc. Sorry you are in a cult and didnt take ECON in college or pay attention in US history. Gfy. You are a cancer on the country.
Man, I find it so funny how the same retards that constantly jerk off how libshits dont understand basic economics all collectively failed ECON 101 in the most spectacular and punishing way imaginable.
Yea...you can see it in my profile. I am older than you and my ECON textbooks are older than you probably.
As a keyboard economist (did only ECON 101 and 102 in college), here is what i think will happen if the tariff stays or even slashed half from the current rate \- Inflation is going to go up since imported goods, historically cheap goods, a wide range of goods like cars, electrics, clothes, medicines, cosmetics etc all are more expensive. And before the tariff, we had the advantage compare to rest of the world when purchasing those globally made products. For an average income American, iPhone probably costs 20% of the monthly take home. And for someone in China, it can be 100% or more of their monthly take home. This purchasing power advantage will erode. \- Every day basic needs like rent, mortgage, groceries, utilities are already high due to persistent high inflation over the past few years. And if you travel outside the country, you will rarely find a more expensive place to live than US \- Salary is not going up since companies are laying people off due to softened consumer demands and more people are fighting for fewer jobs and that suppress the salary growth \- I believe unfortunately, we will experience stagflation which results in declined purchasing power, reduced standard of living, and increased inequality (tenants vs. landlords etc.) \- Government is laying people off and reducing spending which is causing slowed growth and very likely contribute to a recession \- FED can only print money or raise / lower interests. Raise the rates can cause even worse growth and higher unemployment and lower rates will cause higher inflation. Their hands will be tied \- Anti-American sentiment is building around the world, even among our closest allies and reduced demands and dependency on American goods and services will cause decreased economic growth for the already troubling US economy We will eventually enter depression which will get us out of stagflation and it will take generations until we repairs the economy and relationship with rest of the world
Anyone thinks a ECON 101 student can design better trade policies than current administration?
The whole page reads like someone is using Investopedia to finish last minute ECON 101 assignment 
That and his grasp of basic ECON101! He has put himself in a box. He can't remove the tariffs if they are going to pay for his tax cuts, and Powell won't reduce rates when we go into a recession because inflation is going to skyrocket. Welcome to the wonderful world of TRUMP STAGLATION.
The tariff is actually not typical sense of reciprocal tariff... reciprocal tariff means if a country charges our certain export a percent of tariff, we charge them back the same... say Canada charges US exports of cars 25% tariff, US charges Canada 25% for their cars. What this administration is trying to do with tariff is to have zero trade deficit... like absolutely ZERO deficit Let's say China imports 100B from US while exports 200B to US. There is a deficit of 100B for US. 100 / 200 = 50%. In order for the US to have zero trade deficit with China, we need to charge all China's imports to US 50% tariff so US generates 100B revenue from imports. And US exports 100B + US tariff 100B matches 200B we import from China. OMG, this is someone who fails ECON 101 will think of and absolutely deviates from any sensible economic principles... this is more about ideology rather than economic policies at this point...
Dude this is basic fucking ECON101: *Trade deficit/Exports = Effective Tariffs on US* C'mon, didn'tcha know????
I have been warning people of Stagflation on here for quite some time. Most don't even know the proper definition. And I agree, it is the worst scenario, but these morons in the WH never took ECON101 so they will push us right into that fire. That being said, yes, 28% of our lumber comes from Canada, and much of it is necessary for homebuilding. Prices are continuing to rise, while Houses For Sale are also, and sale are slumping. Cost of lumber without the tariffs is already up 14% in the past year....
I disagree completely. Every one of DOGE's numbers is incorrect. Yes, some waste, but the cost of this will far outweigh the benefits to GDP. And drilling? You don't understand the oil market. The price needs to stay between 60 - 70 a barrel or Drilling companies will stop drilling. Anwar? NOBODY wants to drill in that desolate place. No infrastructure, etc. and the other places Trump wants to open up? There is no OIL there! Nothing about any of this is bullish. ECON101 might help you.
"Nobody knows more about ECON 101 than me, believe me, I’ve studied it, I’ve seen it all, and frankly, I could teach the professors a thing or two—they're not even close!"
J Pow will do whatever it takes to calm markets which includes not cutting. Cutting will actuallt cause panic because it confirms the fed thinks the ECON is in trouble. The fed doesn’t care about the markets. He will say the labor market and economy are strong. He will say that he won’t raise rates if inflation returns due to tariffs because they’re tariff inflation is transitory. He will say they will look at the data and if they see signs of econ softening then they will lower rates. Pretty much what he said last Friday and market rallied for a day.
It’s pretty close to literally being the first thing they teach in business and economics, no? I distinctly remember this being stressed on the first day of the ECON100 gen-ed I had to do.
you can take econ 420 and still don't understand economy works. fuck, the truth is that only JPow knows what's economy at this point. ECON = JPOW. There.
People making economic decisions that never took ECON101
I don’t think you understand. When money gets tight, everything but food is cut back for most people. Even smoking addicts cut back from a pack to half. As I was saying, higher prices means lower demand, or did you skip ECON 101?
Actual GDP is boosted by deficit spending, no? Whatever is borrowed is spent on goods and services. I remember an interview with Romney where he was asked about balancing the budget and he replied something like, “no, it would decrease GDP.” GDP is about $27T and deficit is about $2T. If you subtract the $2T from yearly GDP growth, I think you get a much different picture and perspective. Like we have negative growth without the deficits and have for decades. As for deportations, I am definitely no fan. I like people. But ECON 101 taught me about supply/demand curve. Based on the curve, if demand is decreased then sellers lower prices and production. Deportation affects both supply and demand. If 1M are deported, you would have 1M people not buying eggs. The flip side is you need the labor to create the supply.
“Basic supply and demand economics” -> “Bitcoin will rise in value forever” Oh man, I thought I did good in ECON 101 but I’m still not getting it
Really tried to hold off on replaying, but you're a simpleton who seems like he hasn't even taken ECON 101. Jesus. This might overload those few neurons you have but did you know that the vast majority of gasoline produced in the US is from IMPORTED oil? So tell me again how us increasing production is going to bring down prices? At best, it adds to the world supply, and it might have a minimal impact on the overall price of oil
No I actually understand how markets work. They lower on uncertainty. It’s an economic principal and one I understand even in simply taking ECON 101. You should try learning.
I started my undergrad this year - in ECON.
MICRO ECON BASICS - as price levels rise for a commodity, which uranium is, so does supply as market participants enter into the area.
I am with you. These guys, can't keep their emotions out of it. Once the US cuts rates, money will flow out of the US. Its ECON 101 like tax guy said. Looks like a smart bet to me.

"decrease the demand for bronze, thus lowering the cost of it" That is ECON101 for true regards.
Russell 2000 Index will be 3000 soon. This is a general broadening of the market. "At seven consecutive meetings spanning nearly a year, the Fed has opted to not hold rates steady at the highest level in 23 years. As intended, the prolonged stretch of high interest rates appears to have slowed the economy and slashed price increases, economists said. But, they added, the policy risks triggering layoffs and tipping the economy into a recession." “For a long time, since inflation arrived, it’s been right to mainly focus on inflation. But now that inflation has come down and the labor market has indeed cooled off, we’re going to be looking at both mandates. They’re in much better balance,” Powell said at a meeting of The Economic Club of Washington, D.C. Economists offered forecasts of between one and three interest rate cuts by the end of 2024. “If we see inflation numbers rising, especially if we see it a few months in a row, it’s not off the table that rates will stay,” We know enough its not based on earnings. Its based on data that had came out in the last month. We are watching it happen. Not a lot of experts against rate cuts or consecutive ones. The movement is happening and its not retail investors driving it. MACRO ECON 101 or you are old enough to know. ->>>> IWM KRE DIA XHB
> John Deere announced DEERE has been conspicuously underperforming of late, and sacking employees is a common method of goosing numbers or scapegoating > I keep seeing signs of a major recession What are they? And are they different than the imminent “signs of a major recession” that incorrect pundits have been seeing for a decade? > Warren Buffett dropping some of his bank stocks BAC went up from $26 to $45 in less than a year bloating his already oversized position. It’s normal balancing. > 6-8% interest rates are normal No they’re not. There is a vast oversupply of money in the world and demographics dictate less demand. Oversupply plus weaker demand equal low price, and interest rates are the price of money. While 0% is artificially low to stimulate demand and growth beyond that which would be organic, similarly 6+% is artificially high, to try and tame inflation. 3% or less is likely the “true” price of money, if central banks weren’t playing with it. > ECON 401, folks Would not be a passing grade
I'm telling you all, I keep seeing signs of a major recession about to happen. I've lived through 1973-75's energy crisis/Vietnam war recession, 1982-1984's interest rate spikes, the 1990 recession when there was a "minor" pullback again caused by energy price shocks, and 2007-2009 during the housing mortgage credit squeeze. The Banks and mortgage industries are hinting of some serious losses, with lots of credit card debt and the default rates are going up. ANd now Warren Buffet is dropping some of his bank stocks? BOA is a major player in mortgages and remortgage markets. And just like in 1998-2007 there are a LOT of people who got caught flat-footed when their adjustable rate mortgages went up. Twice now since 2020. And many either can't, or didn't realize they should have refi'd ARMs as soon as the interest rates started ticking up. BTW- 6-8% interest rates are normal. The 3% rates we enjoyed for far too long were the anomaly, held down for too long by policies that were meant to score favorable political numbers for whichever administration was in office. The public money supply growth through savings and interest was kept low in order to offset a nearly 2 decade US/Afghanistan war, the government and banking industry used low interest rates to accomplish this. ECON 401, folks.
Did y’all never take ECON 101 or something? This is the US economy we’re talking bout, stalks only go **UP**
High school me won a \*\*nice\*\* strip steak dinner in ECON 101 back in 2018 for having the best paper gains over the semester. NVDA carried me then, and it's carrying me again now Jensen Huang is basically my childhood friend at this point
I actually know someone who just sells puts and makes a killing… no math or anything😂. Just wakes up Monday.. sells puts… and has all the free time in the world. Now he does have an ECON degree which means he isn’t a total moron with selling options and at least seems to understand what he is doing
> Build portfolio based on ECON textbooks and market fundamentals > Question everything because market keeps doing the opposite.
Failed to grasp the whole supply, demand and price relationship, did we? Those 13 million people are living SOMEPLACE and are therefore competing for scarce resources. When demand outstrips supply, prices go up. See ECON 101.
Inflation/Deflation ≠ Price. Please go take ECON 101 again.
This guy ECON 101’s
Wait… ECON?? Like ECON 101?? ECON 1010?? 
Schools really need to implement an ECON 101 class that’s mandatory

ECON101, boys!!! 
Inflation reduction act... Lol such a scam. Now banks report transactions $500 or more to IRS...and now middle class is targeted by the IRS. Lol money 'recovered' was used to subsidize oil prices in an attempt to salvage Biden approval ratings. He destroyed American life...when Oil HAS rise to solve inflation, ECON 101. Because oil never exploded, we will be in a very long term recession...instead of it lasting a year, now it's gonna last for years. And with this world war we're fighting, could be 10yrs before we recover...Remember who did that. And vote accordingly
ECON101 
How? It's neither good or bad whatever that means. It devalues the market - most stocks will rise as a result as they raise prices and subsequently revenue but if currency is devalued the net effect is nothing but wageslaves getting poorer. This is ECON10001.
Listen, you obviously have done a bit of reading and listened to a few podcasts so you think you know what you are talking about. I can tell because your conclusions makes sense to a point but anyone who has real knowledge about how it works will instantly see the holes. Congrats, you took ECON 101 and got your Dunning Kruger Degree! Take a step back and spent some more time studying so you can see the flaws in your reasoning.
Better get some rest and go back to ECON 1010 brutha 
Oil goes up. Oil stocks that sell oil go down. Pretty apple phone company go up. ECON 101.

GameStop was not a “saga.” It was a real-world adaptation of Harvard’s introduction to microeconomics, ECON10A.
Your not accounting for the fact that businesses have grown and very the same time. This means that although it seems like the number is 7% based off the government printing money the number is actually lower. It’s kind of like buy a large pair of shoes and growing into them. So as the total amount of business grows this will increase the dollars worth. In 1970 there was much less business/ wealth compared to 2023. So you have to consider both economy growth and the amount of money in circulation. This is based off my ECON classes at college
GYNA ECON IS FUCKED
ECON 101 Professor: Jerome Powell
Lol, I never learned how overvaluation could be priced in during my ECON classes
Economics in theory is vastly different from practice. You know it’s like all these ECON and finance professors teaching students how value securities in MBA classes while they are living on their paycheck. He is definitely smart, but book smart.
It’s this little thing, called fiscal responsibility. If you keep raising it, they’ll keep reaching it. Maybe don’t push multi trillion dollar spending bills in the middle of an inflation crisis? Maybe don’t print money like it’s worth nothing, then try to act surprised when it’s devaluing? Maybe don’t continue to never pay back the 30+ trillion dollars we already are in debt? Why the fuck should it be smart to let us go further in debt? They aren’t even trying to pay it back. You’re letting our governmental leaders abuse us for their own economic mistakes. Both parties. Easy things. Like I said. Everybody needs an ECON 101 course.
I never took ECON and I’m in the 90 percentile net worth for my age range, even though I live in a poorer area. Meanwhile my classically trained economist friend is heavily in debt and will probably never recover even though he made significantly more money than me. Mainstream economists are flat earthers of our time.
For all of those here who are saying that those are all the most "liberal" states with their high taxes to pay for "socialist" programs: There are 3-4 (or maybe even 5) states on there that are as conservative as they can be. And also, **SUPPLY & DEMAND** helloooOOooo 🙄🤦🏽♀️ People, people, people ... real estate has ALWAYS been a supply-and-demand business. Granted, there have been some capitalist manipulations here and there (true everywhere, not just in the listed states) - which are usually done by conservatives, I might add - but it is a textbook ECON 101, basic knowledge, use-your-common-sense-before-you-comment moment 😒🙄
Someone paid attention in ECON
Where can one learn the intricacies of this? I guess I can look up some ECON course on youtube but I don't know what to look for lol
my god. the flashbacks to Jean Cupidon's ECON 402 lol. now THAT guy was a trip.
Absolutely, they ignored they Buy-in rules in CSDR for years and are now trying to get rid of them for good. I also joined and voted in the petition against that and wrote letters to the ECON Members, but your engagement is another level. Thanks for being a champion for retail and rock on. 👍
To be fair, the people in this country making economic decisions for the rest of us haven't taken ECON 101 either lol
I have mentioned this before multiple times and no one listens. You can tell most of them haven’t taken ECON 101. Another fun fact is that prices are set by sales. So even if 95% of people don’t sell, 5% selling at a loss sets lower prices for everyone.
This! Feds gave a heads up a year ago. And aren't banks supposed to know from ECON 101 about the relationship between interest rates and bond values!?!
