#Twogoofs A massive $2.5 trillion market loss appears to have been triggered by a misinterpretation of China’s rare earth export controls and a delayed reaction to President Trump’s comments. According to The Kobeissi Letter, China’s Ministry of Commerce announced new export restrictions on rare earths on October 9th at 8:30 a.m. ET, expanding controls to include not just raw materials but also technologies and labor associated with rare earth processing. Initially, the announcement drew little market attention. However, it wasn’t until October 10th, when Trump posted about the issue and threatened 100% tariffs on Chinese goods, that markets panicked. The result was a historic selloff, including the largest crypto liquidation ever and a staggering $2.5 trillion drop in S&P 500 market capitalization. China has since clarified that the measures are not a full export ban. Applications that meet regulatory standards will still be approved, and the restrictions are largely procedural—aimed at preventing military misuse and unauthorized foreign access. This clarification suggests that the initial panic was based on a misreading of China’s intent. Trump’s tariff threat now appears to be more of a negotiation tactic than an imminent policy shift. With China signaling openness to cooperation and a potential Xi-Trump meeting on the horizon, analysts believe the likelihood of full-scale tariffs is low.

Trump threatens 200% tariffs “or something” unless China ensures shipments of permanent magnets. The South China Morning Post has reported revived threats of tariff increases from U.S. President Donald Trump highlighting rare earth minerals importance in global manufacturing. He described tariffs as “incredible cards”, saying they would “destroy China” if played. “The comments would seem to confirm that rare earths are indeed a key pain point for the US in trade relations,” said Lynn Song, chief economist for Greater China at ING.

Markets Enter Another “TACO” Trade Let's see tomorrow how they will react... President Trump’s latest escalation in the US and China trade dispute including his threat to impose 100% tariffs on all Chinese imports has triggered a familiar market setup that traders now call the “TACO” trade (Trump Always Chickens Out) Recap: Friday selloff: S&P 500 -2.7%, Nasdaq -3.6%, tech and China exposed stocks hit hardest. Tariff threat: #Trump vowed 100% tariffs to counter China’s rare earth export curbs and hinted at export bans on U.S. tech. Weekend pivot: By Sunday, Trump softened “Don’t worry about China, it will all be fine!” calling Xi “highly respected” and stressing cooperation. Markets have seen this movie before: Trump shocks markets with aggressive threats, only to walk them back days later. Each cycle follows the same panic–>pause–>pivot–>rally 📈 The “TACO” pattern has become a recurring feature of Trump era geopolitics: 1️⃣ Initial panic fear of tariffs, risk-off, energy and metals selloffs. 2️⃣ Walk-back headlines conciliatory tone, hints of ongoing dialogue. 3️⃣ Relief rally equities, oil, and cyclicals rebound sharply. This dynamic often creates high-volatility, short-duration trading windows. For now, futures suggest traders are waiting to see whether Monday brings a policy climbdown or another escalation. ⚙️ Commodities Angle: The tariff shock layered onto already fragile #oil and #metals markets. WTI crude: below $59/bbl Brent $62–63/bbl With traders blaming demand fears, not oversupply. Rare earths and strategic metals surged as China’s new export rules bite. A softening tone could spark snapback rallies in energy, tech, and industrials, while renewed confrontation risks deepening the selloff. Markets are once again trading not on fundamentals but on Trump’s tweets. The next headline determines whether this “TACO” trade ends in another relief rally or a full-blown tariff war. #Markets #TradeWar #China #Tariffs #Commodities #Energy #Oil
