I'm taking bets, do you think the tariffs will:

1. be rescinded/paused in [0,2) days;

2. be rescinded/paused in [2,4) days;

3. be rescinded/paused in [4,7] days;

4. not be rescinded/paused.

3.5) rescinded/paused [30-61) days. There will be some bluster, and then announcements with the large trading partners like Japan, South Korea, etc., that some new deals have been struck.

that some new deals have been struck.

I believe that was the plan all along. He's just doing it aggressively with tariffs.
