Sink or Swim: Trump's Roaring Trade Wars and Your Wallet
Everyone's talking about it: Donald Trump's trade wars are making waves in the stock market, and for good reason. Fund managers like Hendrik Leber are sounding the alarm bells, warning that the President's chaotic trade policies could lead to a dollar crisis and a US debt disaster, spelling major trouble for the global economy. Even business guru Warren Buffett has raised an eyebrow.
Leber ain't mincing words. He snipes that Trump don't seem to have a clue about what he's doing, except for trying to muscle his way onto the world stage. And in case you're wondering, that's not a recipe for success.
Interestingly, while Buffett's critical of Trump's tariff tactics, he's still keeping a chunk of his cash stashed in the good ol' USA. Why? Because it's (dare we say it) the best dang place. Like many investors, Buffett's keeping a portion of his money safe in money market funds, just in case the next big stock market crash hits us at the most inconvenient moment.
Crisis averted, for now, thanks to Trump's interview, where he left the door open for a possible US recession. "There's a transition phase," he said, "because what we're doing is very big." Quite a statement, considering his arbitrary tariffs have caused some serious trade tensions and market volatility.
But hey, if Trump's following a plan, we suppose it's worth a shot. Wondering where to park your money while the dust settles? Keep an eye on our upcoming issue of €uro am Sonntag. We've got the inside scoop on where to find some stability in this unpredictable market.
