But with 30% tariffs and uncertainty of the economy. Plus, until we see signs of a turnaround in market.

US (Scott Bessent & Jamieson Greer) and China (Vice Premier He Lifeng) convene this weekend in Geneva for their initial trade talk since Trump unleashed a trade war against the world, as promised during his presidential campaign. The trump administration has just passed its 100-days in office with nothing to show for except: Supply chain disruptions worldwide. Deep divide domestically. Not forgetting the mass layoff of agencies staff and all sorts of internal chaos.

      Mixed Tuesday. To me, it was a “mixed” trading day in US market on Tue, 13 May 2025 after a weaker-than-forecast inflation data was released. This was just as what I have “expected” & expressed in my post dated 13 May 2025. Click here ! for reasons why, Repost to share ok. Thanks. When trading ended on Tuesday, Dow fell, while S&P 500 & Nasdaq rose: (see above) DJIA: -0.64% (-269.67 TO 42,140.43). S&P 500: +0.72% (+42.36 to 5,886.35). Closed with a YTD gain for the 1st time since late February 2025 with 19 posted new 52-week highs and 6 posted new low. Nasdaq: +1.61% (+301.74 to 19,010.08). 2,590 stocks rose and 1,904 fell as advancing issues outnumbered decliners by a 1.36-to-1 ratio. On Tuesday, 17.8
