I was extremely satisfied with the 50% Tariff allotment on the European Union, especially since they were “slow walking (to put it mildly!), our negotiations with them. Remember, I am empowered to “SET A DEAL” for Trade into the United States if we are unable to make a deal, or are treated unfairly. I have just been informed that the E.U. has called to quickly establish meeting dates. This is a positive event, and I hope that they will, FINALLY, like my same demand to China, open up the European Nations for Trade with the United States of America. They will BOTH be very happy, and successful, if they do!!!

Markets yawn at Trump's tariff bravado, treating it like a rerun of a mildly controversial sitcom. SP500 dipped 0.07% in 1 minute, 0.17% in 5, and 0.43% in 10: a slow bleed compared to May's 0.71% instant plunge on similar EU rhetoric. Dow Jones mirrored this with 0.05%, 0.25%, and 0.49% declines, barely registering against last month's 0.69% shock. Crypto played its usual erratic self: BTC wobbled between -0.07% and +0.17% before settling at -0.29%, while ETH flipped from +0.12% to -0.49%. Both shrugged compared to May's -1.22% BTC nosedive on EU hostility. TRUMP coin’s 0.08% 5-minute gain before a 0.46% drop suggests even meme traders find this script stale. STOXX50’s -0.17% slide was a whisper next to May’s -1.98% tantrum. The real takeaway: markets now treat Trump’s tariff threats like a neighbor revving a lawnmower—annoying, but priced in. The EU’s “quick call” suggests even Brussels has learned to eye-roll on mute.
