I waited a little while for the expected "Trump Bump" which was quite small but appreciated. Then when I saw the game of chicken he was playing, plus the 45% I had earned over the last couple years, the 4.625% risk free yield was an obvious play. Where this goes next is anyone's guess, but somewhere there has to be a bottom. I saved a few more bullets in case the bottom is even lower than this.

Zelda Tears of the Kingdom is IMO the greatest game Nintendo has ever made. Though Ocarina of Time on N64 was great too. There is a PC port of Ocarina called Ship of Harkinian if you ever want to play Ocarina on a modern system. It's really hard to go back to playing it at 20 fps on an N64 in 2025 but awesome on that port playing it at 60 fps (though if you have the monitor for it you can play it up to 255 fps IIRC).

That's so rad people continue to port old games and update them. I just saw recently, in my Linux apps, a new port of old strategic games like I used to use back in the late 90s. Wild stuff! Thanks Bum! :tu

It’s gorgeous! So do you have any target buy back into stock market points, for example S&P 4800 to 5200 range or to that effect? When you DOdGE this kind of market drop, the buying opportunities become fantastic.

Mmmm have actually left the stock to never look back

But u are right. Gotta be some companies that will be a great deal imo

There's also one of Mario 64 and it plays way better than the official remaster on the Switch lol. It even has raytracing that can be turned on. I know Majora's Mask has been fully decompiled too. The one I can't wait for though is when Wind Waker is decompiled and a PC port is released. That one's only about 35% done though.

On Friday, Bloomberg reported (https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2025-04-04/jpmorgan-says-trump-s-tariffs-to-send-us-into-recession-in-2025?embedded-checkout=true) that JPMorgan Chase chief economist Michael Feroli told the bank's clients that real GDP growth is now likely to contract by the fourth quarter of the year "under the weight of the tariffs," and that this would likely impact Americans' jobs and personal finances. He estimated that rather than the previous forecast of 1.3% GDP growth this year, the U.S. economy would now shrink by a third of a point.

"The forecasted contraction in economic activity is expected to depress hiring and over time to lift the unemployment rate to 5.3%," he wrote.

JPMorgan isn't the only bank forecasting a recession. According to Bloomberg, Barclays Plc also projected this week that the U.S. economy could soon take a dive, with GDP contracting "consistent with a recession." And while Citigroup stopped short of predicting a U.S. recession, it did adjust total GDP growth expectations this year to just 0.1%.

The GDPNow model estimate for real GDP growth (seasonally adjusted annual rate) in the first quarter of 2025 is -2.8 percent on April 3, up from -3.7 percent on April 1.

GDPNow - Federal Reserve Bank of Atlanta (https://www.atlantafed.org/cqer/research/gdpnow)

Now the only weird part there is the improvement from April 1 to April 3. Perhaps the rush to buy stuff before the tariffs. The idea that GDP could be -4% is incredible.

Took almost 3 years, but we got it back up there, toed that mark in broad daylight one Sunday afternoon...and swore we'd never do it again. Signed on to F.D.I.C., and have never looked back.

2) trump is bringing manufacturing back to its golden age….

so if you start making deals…manufacturing is not coming back- its just money to go into trumps account…

cannot have both…

make “deals” - you cancel manufacturing coming back

dont make deals - manufacturing might one day come back…in about 25 years

US stock futures plunged Sunday evening after two sessions of sell-offs that wiped away over $5.4 trillion in market value. Stocks were set to open sharply lower Monday, putting the S&P 500 on the precipice of a bear market — a decline of 20% from its peak and an ominous sign for investors and perhaps the broader economy.

Dow futures were down 1,250 points, or 3.3%. S&P 500 futures fell 3.7%, while Nasdaq futures tumbled 4.6%. Asian markets tanked: Japan’s Nikkei fell 8% at the open.

The price of US oil fell more than 3%, sinking below $60 a barrel for the first time since April 2021. Oil prices have been in a freefall as investors fear tariffs could plunge the global economy into a recession that would sap demand for flights, shipments, transportation and travel — all activities that require fuel.

Bitcoin joined the declines, too — falling 5.6% to $78,736.93. Bitcoin had surged above $100,000 shortly after Trump was elected in the hopes that he’d help boost support for cryptocurrencies.

Goddam this idiot inherited a fucking bull market

[Blake]

^^^
"....The nonpartisan Tax Foundation said the average American household will pay $2,100 a year more for goods because of the significant universal and reciprocal tariffs Trump announced Wednesday. It said America’s average import tax will surge to 19% this year from 2.5% last year — the highest rate since the Smoot-Hawley era in 1933. Fitch Ratings said the rate would rise even higher, sending America’s effective tariff rate to its highest level in more than a century....."

HOLD THE LINE 4D CHESS LONG GAME ART OF THE DEAL

[Trainwreck2100]

Nikkei hit the circuit breaker pretty early so i wonder how long it will take for the NYSE to hit it when it opens.

[Trainwreck2100]

complete utter bullshit- and the two latest excuses…

1) 50 countries have called and begged the white house for “deals” which will be a yuge win…

except for the exact opposite excuse…

2) trump is bringing manufacturing back to its golden age….

so if you start making deals…manufacturing is not coming back- its just money to go into trumps account…

cannot have both…

make “deals” - you cancel manufacturing coming back

dont make deals - manufacturing might one day come back…in about 25 years

Look at the foxxcon plant for how his deals end up working out. Part of the uncertainty is that the administration keeps touting the taffifs as long term replacements not just extortion. IE tarrifs will allow "no tax on tips" so if that's the case no amount of negotiating will turn them off cause it sounds like they are now pricing them in

[Winehole23]

Morgan Stanley: “Investors should not expect the Fed to save the economy from recession. The problem is timing: tariffs tend to boost inflation after a couple months and then slow growth after a couple quarters.”

OZ: Working in spices means that you’re uniquely a global company. Our business is built on long-term partnerships with these farmers based on spices that have a unique terroir and history in these regions, and that can’t be replaced. Nobody wants an Herbes de Provence that’s domestically grown in the U.S. The whole point is that it’s built in Provence, based on their soil and climate and recipe and tradition, and that’s true across all of our spices.


The irony here is that there is no domestic spice industry to protect in the U.S. We do work with as many domestic spice farmers as we can, getting chile and garlic and [working with] the father and daughter company that brings salt out of the earth in upstate New York. But there is no domestic cinnamon industry, there is no domestic cumin industry. This stuff is, by default, global and is not from the U.S. We’re paying a lot more to do things that we can’t switch to another place.

Wall Street isn't that worried yet


As the market close looms, I step out of BlackRock to call my financial adviser, who tells me the same thing he says every time: “Max out your Roth IRA and stop calling me.” But this time, he agrees to give me his take.

“Why aren’t these guys jumping off the Vessel (https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/2024/apr/14/new-york-the-vessel-hudson-yards)?” I ask.

He explains that unlike the global meltdown of 2008 and the COVID sell-off of 2020, this time the crash isn’t driven by dirty mortgages or lethal pathogens. It’s driven by one man who can slam on the brakes anytime he wants. “There’s a new God, and he’s just an asshole,” he says.

China will now pay a big number to our treasury. This is all taxes. And don't let them keep telling you that this is a tax on our people. I hate that. You know, they say it's a tax. No.

But, if you are worrying about something more immediate i.e. a financial crisis spinning out of control this week, then the market to focus on is not the stock market, but the market for bonds (aka fixed income) and ultimately this means the giant Treasury market with $28 trillion outstanding.

https://adamtooze.substack.com/p/chartbook-369-are-we-on-the-edge

[Winehole23]

The truly systemic bond market is the US Treasury market, all $28 trillion of it. In the current moment it is vital because it simultaneously serves three functions: as a safe haven, a political target and a piggy-bank.


Treasuries are a general-purpose safe haven. Investors who are selling their shares, driving stock market prices down, have to park their cash somewhere. The obvious place are US Treasuries. In the “normal” course of a stock market correction, we would expect to see bond prices going up as stock prices go down, as investors shuffle from one to the other. As bond prices go up, the yield (the effective interest rate) goes down. This tends to lower interest rates and ease pressure on businesses. This is the see-sawing, balancing effect of markets operating across assets. Again, it is painful, but it is good news. People take losses. But it suggests that the financial system is still working. As Katie Martin commented in the FT in the last few hours (https://www.ft.com/content/c2b4129c-d58c-4c9e-9aee-6f2e10c25785), this is the one to watch.


As the Wall Street Journal (https://www.wsj.com/livecoverage/stock-market-trump-tariffs-trade-war-04-07-25/card/treasury-yields-head-in-opposite-directions-V8iL8ZBXGtZ8cjj46bhd) commented 10 minutes ago (I kid you not), the market is hard to read right now because longer term bond yields have to price in inflation, and Trump’s tariffs are clearly terrible for inflation. So right now we have safe-haven demand driving Treasury prices up (causing yields to come down) and inflation fear driving Treasury demand down (causing yields to go up). All of us are trying to read through the fog.

The basis trade involves betting on the price difference between Treasury securities and their corresponding Treasury futures contracts. Hedge funds often use significant leverage, sometimes up to 100 times, to profit from the convergence of these prices as futures contracts approach expiration. With around $800Binvested in the basis trade, it constitutes a large portion of the $2T, the asset manager said.


Experts worry that the trade poses risks, especially in the event of a market shock. Highly leveraged hedge fund positions in Treasury securities could be rapidly unwound, creating instability. Such unwinding would place immense pressure on broker-dealers, potentially disrupting liquidity in Treasury markets and repo funding.

There are other alternatives as well. When the U.K. bond market tumbled after a negative reaction to Liz Truss’s mini-budget in 2022, the Bank of England intervened with a temporary purchase of longer-dated government debt — precisely the segment of the U.S. bond market under threat.

It was an intervention that was successful — stemming the bond-market turmoil that had seen 30-year gilt yields surge 130 basis points in just three days, even making a profit of £3.5 billion on the £19.3 billion of purchases it made, and then unwound.

TS Lombard strategist Dario Perkins pointed out that after the intervention, the Bank of England resumed hiking interest rates, lifting them by another 300 basis points as it fought surging inflation. It even resumed its quantitative-tightening plan of reducing the bonds on its balance sheet.


“You can intervene briefly in bonds and stay hawkish on inflation,” says Perkins.

The Fed could be even more technical, focusing on the overnight borrowing market and what’s called the Secured Overnight Financing Rate.

There, the swap rate between SOFR and the equivalent maturity Treasury are tumbling — which suggests liquidity is vanishing and that banks aren’t lending to each other.

Economist Peter Schiff: “The crash that's now happening in the bond market has more dire implications than…the stock market. If these tariffs remain in place, the US could have a full-blown financial crisis by the fall that makes the 2008 Financial Crisis look like a Sunday school picnic.”
