So much for Trump boosting the economy. Fucking div is causing a Global Recession. What a wally.

To be fair, I think he never exactly said which economy he wanted to boost.

U.S he said a lot in interviews during election campaign. He was saying he'll get the economy strong again... Yada yada .... Tanked it more like.

Fair enough.

Maybe he already sees the US as part of Russia though. You never know.

When it comes to Trump all bets are off. Some speculation he's KGB lol. 1987 he was turned after opening up Trump Towers In Russia, apparently.

He's wanting a trade war with the whole world. Plus he believes that the world will pay for it. That is extremely delusional. We take the hit. Trump is a moron, he's not my president. I want an actual competent president.

I wouldn't be surprised if another Great Depression hits like the 1930s.

Asia-Pacific markets extended their sell-off Monday as fears over a global trade war sparked by U.S. President Donald Trump’s tariffs fueled a risk-off mood.

Japanese markets led losses in the region in early trade. The benchmark Nikkei 225 plunged 8.03% while the broader Topix index plummeted 8.64%. Earlier in the day, trading in Japanese futures was suspended due the market hitting circuit breakers.

Over in South Korea, the Kospi index fell 4.34% at the open, while the small-cap Kosdaq fell 3.48%.

Australia’s S&P/ASX 200 declined 6.07% at the open. The benchmark slid into correction territory with an 11% decline since its last high in February, in its previous session.

Futures for Hong Kong’s Hang Seng index stood at 22,772 pointing to a stronger open compared to the HSI’s last close of 22,849.81.
