Thoughts after today’s tariff drama (pump before the dump)? SQQQ people - how are you doing?

How are you feeling after today’s 90-day tariff pause and the China tariff increase? Wild combo. Personally, I’m wondering if “tomorrow” brings more news designed to trigger a dump after today’s pump.

A couple days ago I commented that the "fake news" tweet about a 90-day pause was “fake news” until it's not. And sure enough, it seems like we’re caught in another orchestrated chaos news cycle meant to manipulate market on demand.

I can’t help but think there’s a bigger game at play here. I still think Trump wants rates cut so he can renegotiate the debt, and all this chaos of "on again, off again" tariffs is just part of the pressure campaign. Once he gets those rate cuts, I think we’ll see tariffs level off, markets surge again, and he’ll take credit for both the market boom and shrinking the debt.

What do you think? Are we in for more volatility and see yesterday's lows again?
