BREAKING: Trump Secures 15% Tariff Deal with South Korea—Trade War Chess Move or Political Theater?
Trump drops another trade bombshell—this time with Seoul. The 15% tariff rate becomes the new battleground number in global economics.
The Art of the (Trade) Deal
Love him or hate him, Trump still moves markets. The freshly inked South Korea agreement carves out a 15% tariff lane—just high enough to look tough, just low enough to avoid immediate retaliation. Classic Trumpian ambiguity.
Wall Street Rolls Its Eyes
Traders yawned while parsing the fine print—another day, another headline to algorithmically scalp. Meanwhile, crypto markets barely blinked; decentralized finance doesn’t beg for tariff permissions.
The Cynic’s Footnote
Funny how these ‘historic deals’ always land during election seasons—almost like someone’s trying to juice the GDP numbers before voting booths open. But hey, at least it’s not another NFT drop.
