Musk was furious with Peter Navarro and called him dumber than a bag of dicks over X. [01:12] MinceR lol [01:12] MinceR it begins [01:12] IsambardPrince So he probably talked to Trump about at least putting a real economist in charge/ [01:16] IsambardPrince Okay, the skippng on this second disc was just a dirty disc. [01:18] IsambardPrince MinceR, "But, number two, let's recall what happened overnight and from what I understand, and I'm getting this from people that are talking to the White House, the what happened in the bond market overnight, the spike in yields on the 30-year and the 10-year bond, which showed that people were dumping our bonds. And who were those people dumping our bonds? Japan, the biggest holder of bonds, was selling bonds. That's what I' [01:18] IsambardPrince m getting from some very big money managers. China, maybe to some extent, but it was largely Japan and others. [01:18] IsambardPrince If you have a mass sale of bonds, that means people are losing confidence in the U.S. economy, on the ability to do deals with us, and, from what I understand, this is what forced the hand of this 90-day reprieve. [01:18] IsambardPrince Now, is it a good thing? You know, are people coming to the table? Yeah. But if, you know, if you read between the lines, or not even, with what Scott Bessent said, we have no deals, right? There's nobody that is really there saying this is what we're going to do. And they paused it anyway." [01:18] IsambardPrince --- [01:18] IsambardPrince No deals. [01:18] IsambardPrince Concepts of a deal. [01:18] IsambardPrince Concepts of the art of deals. [01:18] MinceR :> [01:19] IsambardPrince "So, my thing that I'll give you this, there is some art of the deal here. And, by the way, brilliant move by putting China in the corner. But, that's a whole separate thing, cause remember that's a very difficult negotiation. Everybody else is a lot easier. They really wanted, they do want a deal with us, whether they want to be, you know, forced into really bad trade deals on their end is a whole other negotiating story." [01:19] IsambardPrince Doubling down on China is stupid. [01:19] IsambardPrince It's less stupid than declaring a trade war on everyone.
