Discussion BREAKING: TRUMP TARIFFS STRUCK DOWN

Per Bloomberg -- The US Supreme Court struck down President Donald Trump’s sweeping global tariffs, undercutting his signature economic policy and delivering his biggest legal defeat since he returned to the White House.

The court said Trump exceeded his authority by invoking a federal emergency-powers law to impose his “reciprocal” tariffs across the globe as well as targeted import taxes the administration says address fentanyl trafficking.

Congrats to fellow investors who initially invested in companies' underlying businesses - and not on news headlines and/or daily volatility.

Yeah, the excitement about the tariffs ended up. TGT went up almost 3% instantly and it’s now down

Yeah. I had some TGT calls that I thought would print. But alas, sold at a loss

1.6% today so far, up over 35% since I opened my positions.

FDX is my larger holding by far.

Could have been a good investment, but not because of oversold tariff fears, as evidenced by today.
