If you like to trade intraday volatility, I suppose it is exciting. What troubles me is that having successfully lived through this experience twice (with DeepSeek and now tariffs), the bulls expect the game to continue. They believe Trump is all bark and no bite. BTFD. It may not be this week or even next, but at some point in the not too distant future, the Cat In the Hat is going to leave a mess, not because he wants to, but because that is the consequence,” Atwater wrote.— Scott Schnipper1 Hour AgoStock futures open lower ThursdayU.S. stock futures slipped Thursday night.Futures tied to the Dow Jones Industrial Average dipped 49 points, or 0.1%.
