Trumpovetsky's outstanding work in crashing the stock market has blown over into the bond market, which kills the traditional"flight to safety"   method normal investors use to protect their pile of money in a bear market.  Right now the only way to make money is to day trade and short sell the asset classes taking the biggest hits.  This is tough to do because you need to be in front of the trades and pay close attention to your Bloomberg terminal.  It takes a lot of trades so your broker fees can add up and cost more than you make.  Also helpful is to have inside information, which is of course illegal.  I'll bet dollars to doughnuts Trump has kept his broker fully in the loop of what tariffs are going down, on who and when.  IOW, INSIDER TRADING on steroids, which is a felony and fits under HIGH CRIMES & MISDEMEANORS.  Of course, the SEC would have to investigate and prosecute, which ain't gonna happen.  However, there are a few Billionaaire Hedge Fund managers who are getting pissed off who may look for other means to retaliate.  Nobody likes seeing Billions wiped off their portfolio value.
