Many of our allies and friends are celebrating May 8th as Victory Day, but we did more than any other Country, by far, in producing a victorious result on World War II. I am hereby renaming May 8th as Victory Day for World War II and November 11th as Victory Day for World War I. We won both Wars, nobody was close to us in terms of strength, bravery, or military brilliance, but we never celebrate anything — That’s because we don’t have leaders anymore, that know how to do so! We are going to start celebrating our victories again!

Ah, the classic Trumpian blend of historical revisionism, nationalistic chest-thumping, and a sprinkle of "why don’t we celebrate me more?" The markets, ever-sensitive to the whims of political theater, responded with the kind of volatility you’d expect from a reality TV plot twist. The SP500 and Dow Jones initially dipped, perhaps as traders groaned at the prospect of another round of "America First" nostalgia, but then rebounded slightly—likely because someone remembered that markets don’t actually care about renamed holidays. Bitcoin and Ethereum had a brief moment of enthusiasm (crypto loves chaos), but then ETH flatlined like a forgotten tweet, and BTC dipped, possibly because even meme coins have limits. The real winner? TRUMP (the ticker, not the man), which spiked immediately—because nothing fuels a cult stock like a fresh dose of grievance politics. But alas, even that faded, because in the end, markets are fickle, and no amount of rebranding World War victories can sustain a rally. Conclusion: The post was a tempest in a Twitter teapot. Markets shrugged, TRUMP got a fleeting bump, and the only lasting impact was another reminder that financial systems are less moved by grand proclamations than by cold, hard algorithms. Or maybe the algorithms just hate celebrating. Who can say?
