{quote} But did the markets do that? First time the idea was floated the market reacted with very large, very obvious negative moves. Today, it was barely a quick blip. I was shocked at how small the reaction was. Once you mention something enough it loses all surprise value. It seems pretty clear he won’t actually do it, not without some sort of provable information. He wants a scapegoat imo.
I could argue both sides, but we have to keep things in perspective here. For one, this, as you mention, has been teased over the past 2 months (at minimum). Additionally, the previous moves were not refuted within 30 minutes. Add that to the fact that this wasn't "action", but another 'threat' (and not direct from the president, but directly refuted by him), and you have a reaction showing what WOULD have continued should the event be real.

As such, today was all about fading the move. Though I admit it was scary once the WH confirmed the report, driving the /nq down 100 pts in 2 minutes after the market had already recovered losses from the earlier media reports.

Trump's denial of the immediacy of action was enough to stabilize the markets, but there is still some uncertainty out there.

Well it's was short lived since he said he didn't say that. He was trying to gauge the markets reaction like last time and the markets quickly made it's move. Some would say BIG money was made from these dips as well. Definitely looking for a scapegoat but that's not a new tactic as well.

Trump attacking Powelll (again - in spite of the fact he doesn't, albeit currently, have the power to fire him) probably has much more to do with deflection from the damaging Epstein saga?

Jerome Powell was first nominated to be Chairman of the Federal Reserve by President Donald Trump in 2018...

It might be just me (I'm a newbie, and so I'm manually moderated), but I've noticed that the folk who take exception to anything to do with what President Trump says are quite obnoxious.

It's such a shame this otherwise tremendous site allows such gobs of stinky projectile vomit. Are these representative of the Democrat demographic?

I'm referring to a couple of high volume comment threads from about 12 hours or so ago.

Trump: Would love if Powell resigns

It'll be the first time he feels love (excluding the times on Epstein's Lolita plane)

We view the world wanting him to resign as a good thing. He’s really fucking you losers over. What third world shithole do you live in? Let me guess, Canada?

Don't bother explaining to demo traders and gamblers here. They are here to vent, their political opposition is in the power, and they are just here venting their miserable life. What happened today was a small move compare to some moves that happened throughout history. It is something that no one could of known or catch. We know that stock market is bullish, we know that USD has been beaten, but now is going back up and bullish and will go to 110 maybe above or not, does not matter. The 99% of people here on FF do not trade for a living or invest, do not have more than $1,000 in their account, and are scalping to and day trading to failure. Ask if any of them use VIX for trading, they won't even know what that is. We know and understand that we are forward looking the market and are already in position like selling Pound vs USD position sold at price 1.3750, and we know to hold that all the way down to 1.25 maybe even further or until macro data changes. Macro has been changing for USA to better and worst for GBP this is why we know and have sell position on Gbpusd at 1.3750 price. Gamblers here do not know or understand this and they never will. It is like they are stuck in this day trading bubble mind set, and even though it is right in front of them that only maybe 20% of the time throughout whole year day trading positions work, and the rest of 80% does not, and you are pretty much at loss there, instead they should add long term and hold those 80% of time, they do not get this. Their brains are small, they just do not understand. This is a difficult job, investment, trading, but not impossible and can be done. But 99% of people here on forexfactory will never get that, because they limit themselves to stupidity.

You say that like any of those things are a bad thing. Shouldn’t you be out letting your country be completely taken over by the CCP?
