Trump's Trade Strategies and the Rise of the 'TACO Trade' Meme
TL;DR Summary
The TACO trade, an acronym for 'Trump Always Chickens Out,' describes a market strategy where investors buy stocks after Trump announces tariffs or trade war threats, anticipating a market rebound when Trump retreats or delays tariffs. This meme has gained popularity as a blueprint for 2025 market behavior, with recent examples showing significant market dips followed by rapid recoveries after tariff delays. While potentially profitable in the short term, experts warn that prolonged trade tensions could lead to a recession.
