I’m guessing this means the stock for some companies will dip and when it’s TACO time, his friends will be a bit richer?
Just 100%? Why not 400% or 9999999%? Hell, invent a new order of magnitude, call it Trumpillion and impose a Trumpillion percent tarriff, that’ll show’em how strong you are and will distract them from the Epstein files!
Just like medicine, he’ll stop at 1500% so it doesn’t sound outlandish.
He won’t do it, pure TACO. What’s his plan to tariff the epstein files though? Many people are asking.
Lol, ok i guess we’re manipulating cpu stock prices now get ready to buy the dips everyone. Us poors benefitting from stock manipulation is the quickest way to to get them to stop with this nonsense.
So, does Intel:
A. Justify their layoffs using this information that came out later?
B. Use it to justify further layoffs?
C. Completely ignore this as the market has no real effect on their internal workings
Whichever is dumbest
Guessing that might be A & B. They should probably be hiring and throwing money at research on figuring out what will get them into the next technology so they can get back in the ring or even ahead when that time comes. Instead they seem to be choosing to fall further behind and just wait
hope stocks don’t move a needle over his taco speech, i think the whole chicken out thing came from the stock market
I think it was the PSA guys I heard talking about how the market is just ignoring him at this point. After the first couple announcements there were wild swings. But now TACO, and basically nothing changes.
Not only that, but he’s going to extort Jensen to pay for that ballroom
I’m gonna need the jacket, Jensen. Yeah the jacket. Leave it there. Now say thank you.
Mere peasants will never be able to time the bottom because Trump decides where the bottom will be.
You are naïve if you think a lot of common people can benefit from any news. Remember folks- If it is in the news, it is in the price.
This is an amazing idea.
I’m sure manufacturers will have e their new supply chains and manufacturing plants ready to go in a few weeks.
If he wants to give up the supercomputing race this badly he can also just drop the export restrictions on high performance GPUs to China when he’s at it.
Yikes, that would make cpu’s as expensive as gpu’s, and gpu’s, well, unaffordable altogether.
He will exempt companies who makes chips in the US - as long as they make some of them in the US, their imports are exempt from the tariff. A quick glance says major chip makers (Intel, AMD, Nvidia) have some production facilities in the US.
Some, but they’re fabbed by TSMC which he’s trying to strongarm into buying a 49% stake in Intel.
I guess that means those cheap SoC boxes we’ve been seeing all over are gonna double in price.
So basically we can design them, but we can’t afford to buy them lol
While I hate this, I’d love to see risc-v take off.
Wait, they’re not all made in China? Last time we were ordering some for a development board at work, we had to source them from China, though that was admittedly a few years back.
It’s open source, you can fab it anywhere.
Between AP reporting and Trump. The US will turn into cyperpunk in 20 years
Without the cyber, apparently.
my dad was a cyborg back in 2017. had a working brain implant and everything. hell, i’ve been a low-tech one (i got plastic and velcro parts) since 2010. we already there
Like the show Max Headroom
Didn’t he specifically end plans to expand silicon production in the USA? I’m pretty sure that’s a deliberate act he took when he first entered office, so tariffing chips makes no sense unless he just doesn’t want any electronics.
silicone is boobs, silicon is chips
He’s reliable inconsistent in his policy stances
I’m genuinely shocked that the .1% aren’t pushing back against this kind of shit. Or are they just gambling that the inevitable depression will allow them to make out like bandits AND that it won’t be so bad as to trigger outright societal collapse?
Everyone’s in on it. All news is a facade for the public.
My computer’s from Goodwill, tariff THAT mofo
TACO
