This month, Ethereum is a must to make money. The previous operations were not ideal mainly due to lack of patience. I must strictly follow the trading strategy and operate steadily this month. With the beginning of autumn, I will turn things around this month.
[Global Tax Increase Warning! Is Trump the "Picasso of Tax Increases" this time?]
Trump's style of tariffs is no longer linear storytelling, but "abstract art"—cutting a slice at any country that displeases him, with tax rates depending on his mood.
This time he threatens to increase "automobile tariffs" on the EU, leaving German car manufacturers questioning their existence. Do you think he’s just making noise? Don’t forget, he actually did it last time, and the global car market nearly hit the brakes with supply disruptions.
But don’t get it wrong, he’s not against free trade; he just likes "charging an entry fee." In plain terms: you can come, but you have to pay a ticket, and the ticket price keeps rising.
Ironically, many American companies are also complaining: "The tariff wall is getting higher, and our ladders for transporting raw materials have been confiscated." Trump himself understands this, but he knows even better—that as long as he speaks loudly enough, the votes might remain stable.
👉 Summary of the view: Don’t interpret Trump’s actions through traditional trade theories; he paints economic policy with "abstractism," and understanding it too straightforwardly can lead to confusion.
