*Can't vouch for the veracity of this one.

 
No, not due to "tariffs."

Due to TRADERS' REACTIONS to what THEY ARE TOLD TARIFFS WILL DO.

Those are not the same. THREE DAYS of tariff stipulations, don't affect bottom-lines. They don't even give clear guidance on how they might affect profits. They just allow speculators and emotion-driven "investors" to react, and to hiss and sneer, that anyone DARE upset the beloved cheap-money-driven, bank-house-account-driven, Bubble Market!

I'm glad Vodka Nan guessed wrong. Her gains are 100-percent Inside-Information and trading on her own actions as a law-giver; so any amount she loses, a little or all of it, is some Justice. But it ain't the tariffs doing it.

Trump says he would ‘absolutely’ sign ban on congressional stock trading​

President Trump said in an interview published Friday he would “absolutely” sign legislation to ban congressional stock trading if it reached his desk.

“Well, I watched Nancy Pelosi get rich through insider information, and I would be okay with it. If they send that to me, I would do it,” Trump told Time magazine in an interview about his first 100 days in office.

Such a ban has serious legal problems.

It's a violation of Separation of Powers. The Executive cannot legislate, and certainly not ON the Legislative Branch.

If Trump wants this to happen, he has to embarrass the CON gress, and educate the public on it. Remember, forty years ago, the Congressional Page scandal? There was a Page-Intern program in CON gress - high-school kids brought in for a semester as paid interns, pages, running errands.

Mostly they were used as sex toys. Once the (then, moar-honest) mediuh exposed it, the program was quickly abolished.

Making billions in Insider Trading, is, IMHO, no less shameful.
