Trump's impact on stocks

U.S. President Donald Trump's on-and-off tariff threats have raised questions.

Is there some logic to his “madness”? No one knows for sure, except maybe members of Trump's inner circle.

Recently, in response to an interviewer asking if the U.S. is heading toward a recession, Trump did not deny the possibility. He added he doesn't pay attention to the stock market. If that is true, then Trump is unaware of volatility on U.S. and world stock exchanges.

I don't know much about day trading but I do know that market volatility provides ideal conditions for day traders to profit.
