Scrolling through news feeds and it's like, how's Trump gonna navigate this mess? Inflation's at 3.7%, and oil's around $85 a barrel—gas prices got me cringing at the pump. Are we looking at another trade war or nah? Remember when he tweeted about tariffs like it was just another Tuesday? And stocks, man, they're jumping around like a cat on a hot tin roof. Dow's up, then it's down—can't keep track. Analysts are all over the place, some say buy tech, others say run for the hills. It's all noise, but what if there's a method to the madness? Maybe I should've taken that finance class instead of art history. Crypto's barely mentioned, but is that a good thing? My gut says, stay skeptical, but who even knows anymore.
