Canada just activated tariffs on US goods for the first time in a generation, yet most traders still think this is a stock market problem.
The real pain hits when you realize those leveraged longs you entered during greed season have no protection against a sudden liquidity vacuum. I have watched too many accounts get liquidated because they treated geopolitics as background noise.
This is not 2018 all over again, but the rhymes are getting loud. Back then China tariffs drained risk appetite and $USDT became the only place capital felt safe before everything else dumped. Fast forward and we are sitting at a Fear and Greed reading of 73 with $ZEC and $ETC already showing unusual volume as smart money positions for the second-order effects.
Tariffs raise input costs, slow trade, and eventually squeeze the very leverage that has been juicing this rally. The veterans I know are already rotating, not because they are scared, but because they remember how quickly hope turns into forced selling.
Anyone else seeing the same rotation into stables first?
