How are you trading the ‘trump trade war’?


Recommended Posts

Seems like there is a lot of opportunity for making a few trades on the back of the rhetoric coming from the trump-house. Trade war talk is really kicking off and now the EU are getting on board. 

How are you trading it? 

Which markets are worth investigating? 

Whats your riskprofile on this? Do you think it’ll last or just be a flash pan statement? 

Chinese investment in the United States has plummeted 92% this year was trending on reddit today. 

Looking forward to some discussion about this :)

Watchout BMW and Mercedes, Trumps tariffs on EU cars is coming and these stocks are going to take a big hit.

The EU can't win this and Trump is really only looking for a better deal not trade parity, a some point both the EU and China will have to make a deal and suddenly all these **** for tat escalations will be wiped away, the question is when.

The whole ‘trump trade’ is quite an interesting one isn’t it. I guess the easiest (“easiest”) thing would be to look at which industries the tariffs target, which companies within those industries are most exposed (for example Harley Davidson as a US company, how much revenue is generated from overseas sales, as well as which companies have a high use of raw materials from China such as aluminium etc) and go from there.

The old ‘fang’ Facebook, Amazon, Netflix and Google and a large number of other tech stocks had a bit of a crappy few days so probably worth keeping an eye on that. It’s a bit odd really because these stocks are generally immune to tariff chat, especially when there hasn’t been any mention by the US, EU or China on levies or barriers to entry on these multinationals (many of which are softwares / transcend boarders). Maybe this is more a profit taking scenario on the individual stocks which haven’t been battered by the trade talks? I wouldn’t be going in big here. 

Also recently read this which was quite interesting. https://www.washingtonpost.com/news/wonk/wp/2018/06/25/the-first-layoffs-from-trumps-tariffs-are-here

German IFO expected to fall again tomorrow and tariffs on auto imports into the US from the EU on the horizon, drunker Junker off to the US looking to do a deal or maybe just to beg (Trump will wipe the floor with him).

What a double blow to the German auto industry (employing around a million people) that would be, US tariffs and a no deal Brexit. Germany won't let these 2 massive markets go, Merkel (I mean the EU) will have to make a deal.

    • His mention of C3.ai, with its focus on predictive maintenance and smart meter management, highlights how AI isn't just improving operational efficiency but also creating new growth opportunities. Anderson also points to Microsoft’s AI-enhanced cloud services as another example of AI setting the stage for future business models. For investors, it’s less about immediate profitability and more about the long-term potential of AI.
    • XRP supporters have noticed a significant shift in the cryptocurrency's price following the SEC’s recent legal actions. As the situation unfolds, understanding these dynamics is crucial for investors. SEC’s Appeal: A Shock to the Market On Thursday, the U.S. SEC announced its intention to appeal favorable rulings from the Ripple lawsuit that concluded a few months ago. By Friday, this intention became official as the SEC submitted applications to the U.S. appellate court. This news sent shockwaves through the XRP market, leading many investors to sell off their tokens, which caused the price to drop sharply. XRP’s Recent Price Movements Price Drop After the SEC Announcement On October 2, just before the SEC’s appeal news broke, XRP reached an intraday high of $0.6058. However, by October 3, the price plummeted to $0.5101, marking a 15.79% decrease. Interestingly, despite the SEC's appeal being registered on October 4, XRP showed signs of recovery.  As of writing this article XRP Price was trading at 0.54 With 1.375 increase in last 24 hours as per Coinpedia markets data For a more detailed analysis of XRP's potential price trajectory, be sure to check out our comprehensive XRP price prediction article. Comparing the 2020 Lawsuit Impact In December 2020, the situation was markedly different. When the SEC initially filed its lawsuit against Ripple, XRP's price dropped dramatically. On December 20, XRP was valued at $0.5678, but by December 23, following the lawsuit announcement, it had plummeted to $0.2214, a staggering 61% decline. The situation worsened as more exchanges began delisting XRP. By December 29, the price had fallen to $0.1748, nearly 70% lower than its pre-lawsuit price. Resilience and Future Predictions Despite the recent turmoil, XRP’s ability to recover has sparked optimism among its supporters. Some market analysts, including Bobby A, believe that the current legal developments may present a “sell trap.” He predicts XRP could reach $4.23 soon, emphasizing that macro charts remain bullish. Furthermore, there are suggestions that XRP could potentially rise to $6 in the near future. After hitting a low of $0.17 during the 2020 lawsuit, XRP surged by 1,021% to $1.96 by April 2021. If a similar rally occurs from the recent low of $0.5101, it could see prices climbing as high as $5.72, with the possibility of reaching $6 by January. As the SEC's legal actions continue to unfold, XRP's resilience offers hope for future price rallies. Investors are encouraged to stay informed about market developments.
    • Cardano (ADA) is one of the most talked-about cryptocurrencies, with its price currently sitting at $0.3556. But what does the future hold for ADA? Let’s break down the key predictions and market developments in this ADA price prediction article. Optimistic Price Predictions Potential Rise to $1 by 2024: Some analysts are predicting that Cardano could reach $1 by the end of 2024, showing strong potential for growth. 17% Gain Predicted by November: CoinCodex forecasts that ADA could rise by 17% and hit $0.4249 by November 6, 2024. This is backed by the fact that 63% of the past month’s trading days were "green," signaling positive market momentum. Concerns and Bearish Predictions Max Keiser's Bold Prediction: Max Keiser stirred controversy with his prediction that ADA could lose 90% of its value compared to Bitcoin in the next six months. This pessimistic outlook has raised concerns among investors. Price Volatility: Over the last six months, Cardano’s price has dropped by 39.93%, reflecting significant volatility. However, if bulls manage to push the price above $0.43, ADA could see a rise to $0.49, an increase of 25%. Community and Rumors Charles Hoskinson Denies Rumors: Recently, rumors surfaced that Cardano’s founder, Charles Hoskinson, sold 1 billion ADA during the last bull market. Hoskinson quickly shot down the speculation, calling it false and stating, “It didn’t happen. People just lie. It’s how the internet works now.” Generosity Joke Gone Wrong: The rumors began when Cardano supporter Jason Appleton jokingly asked if a helicopter seen in a Fox News clip belonged to Hoskinson, hinting at the costs of his charitable efforts. This comment spiraled into baseless claims that Hoskinson had cashed out during ADA’s peak price of $3.60. Future Developments and Roadmap Leios Upgrade: Cardano’s new roadmap includes the Leios upgrade, which will greatly improve the network’s scalability. This could attract more users and enhance ADA’s long-term potential. Large Transactions Spike: In September 2024, Cardano saw a spike in large transactions, with a monthly high of 5,070 transactions. This indicates growing interest in the platform, despite recent price fluctuations. While the short-term future of Cardano remains uncertain, its strong community and upcoming developments offer reasons for optimism. Investors will need to keep a close eye on ADA’s price movements and the broader market trends as we head into 2024.
