Trump uses the force.

I saw this tweet earlier this morning. What is the "Stop with the 50 B's"?
(And why is it possessive with the apostrophe?)

The only google references I'm finding are this twitter quoted, followed by some water temperature controllers and a pizza buffet in Marietta, GA.
 
"I can feel the market" is exactly the what Bernie Madoff said for years about his farcical returns. When people tell you they are 'feeling the market' or that you should they are basically asking you to cast rational thought aside and believe whatever bullshit they are trying to sling your way.

Also I'm sure Trump doesn't want to use 'meaningless numbers' because he can't understand them.
 
That from the same guy that told you "Don't believe what you read, don't believe what you see, only believe what I tell you."

I'm still trying to figure out why I'm not surprised.
 
The man's functionally illiterate but he knows that what the FED does can impact the markets, which are... well, not in free fall, but things look precipitous. Any damn half witted investor knows this stuff. He tweets, that's what he does. Without it he'd fuckin' collapse mentally in short order.

BTW, I do not read DJT's tweets. 10x burned, I'm shy.

I'll spill one of the quotes that sticks in my brain...

"He who doubts from what he sees will 'nere believe do what you please." - William Blake
 
I'm pretty sure 50Bs are the standard unit of measure of covfefe. "Feel the market"? Is that like "Be the ball"?

Attempt at translation - So he's asking the Fed to just go by intuition instead of solid research. He doesn't understand it's not the Fed's job to make money. Their job is to control economic hemorrhage as much as possible. Then there is the general obliviousness inherent in a POTUS broadcasting the message, "Hey Fed, did ya read the paper and watch Fox News this morning? That should guide your national policy decision.
