Odaily Planet Daily News: According to JPMorgan research, the number of market-impacting social media posts posted by Trump has decreased significantly since he returned to power. Compared to his first term, only 10% of Trump’s 126 posts on sensitive topics such as trade tariffs, foreign relations and the economy led to noticeable currency market moves, although that proportion is rising. The report pointed out that Trump recently posted more than 20 related posts, which was twice the average in January, but far lower than the peak of 60 posts per week during the trade friction period of 2018-2019. Posts about tariffs had the biggest impact on markets, with nearly a third of posts causing market moves, JPMorgan said. Among them, Trump posted in early February that he had used emergency powers to impose a 25% tariff on Mexico and Canada, although he postponed the measure two days later, causing the Mexican peso and Canadian dollar to fall by more than 2% and 1%, respectively. Analysts at JPMorgan said trading on Trump’s tweets was not highly profitable, with backtesting showing expected gains of no more than 4% even under a “very optimistic” scenario. (Golden Ten)
