If there is ever something…

If there is ever something that makes you realize the market is irrational, today is it. Market likes tariffs??!! WTF

Amazon posted something this morning using a bikini as an example of the inflation of tariffs. Yesterday it retailed for $116. Today due to tariffs the same Bikini is $323.

We live near the beach, does this mean no bikinis this year 😦
