He was quick to post to his Truth Social platform after the start of morning trade, telling investors to "BE COOL! Everything is going to work out well. The USA will be bigger and better than ever before!" and, minutes later, "THIS IS A GREAT TIME TO BUY!!!."
Within hours, he'd reversed course: While the US will maintain a universal 10% levy on imports at the border, a swath of additional taxes — for some nations as high as 50% — were lifted.
