Markets shrugged at Trump's latest China deal non-announcement like a cat ignoring an empty food bowl. SP500: wobbled between +0.03% (1min) and -0.01% (5min) before settling at +0.01% (10min), a volatility range tighter than a budget airline seat. Dow Jones mirrored this with a net -0.02% over 10 minutes, proving even blue chips can’t muster enthusiasm for vague pronouncements. Crypto, ever the contrarian, edged up: BTC gained 0.08-0.14%, while ETH rallied 0.16-0.28%, suggesting traders either misunderstood the tweet or bet on irony. The TRUMP token’s 0.29-0.39% rise was the day’s only coherent narrative—politics as a penny stock. Compared to past China-related posts, this was a snooze: historical swings were 5-10x larger, with SP500 dropping -0.44% and BTC -0.53% on prior “grave danger” rhetoric. Today’s reaction? More lethargic than a Wall Street intern on Friday. The takeaway: markets now treat Trump’s China tweets like a boy who cried wolf, if the wolf was made of lukewarm leftovers. The real shocker? How little shock remains.
