Yesterday’s Biggest Market Loser Will Be Back

Long-term fundamentals remain intact

July 31, 2025 Ripple Effect — July 31, 2025 Yesterday, the Federal Reserve held interest rates steady at a 4.25%-4.5% range. The real action came from President Trump’s various trade announcements. That included finalizing a tariff on raw copper imports of 50%. That’s lower than what Trump had hinted at – imagine that. As a result, copper had its biggest daily drop on record, and the metal gave up all of its massive gains for 2025: Copper prices soared on the prospect of steep tariffs, then collapsed as the reality wasn’t as bad as imagined The U.S. still needs to import about 1 million tonnes of copper annually to meet its needs. Just as the market overreacted and overheated, now may be a second chance to buy into the copper trade with a longer-term view. ~ Addison Why Are 21 Billionaires Moving Their Money ASAP? Under the surface of the U.S. financial system…  One of the biggest stock market events in 25 years is rapidly unfolding… The economist who predicted the 2008 Financial Crisis says it will be: "The Biggest Crash of Our Lifetime." Starting August 27th — your favorite tech stocks like Nvidia, Apple, Microsoft, Google, and hundreds more could come crashing down…   Cutting the entire tech market by HALF – virtually overnight.   This is why the world's financial elite are panic-selling stocks at the fastest rate in a decade. To help you prepare…  Our guest expert is giving you his #1 stock to profit – 100% FREE. P.S. While the Fed held rates steady, two members of the FOMC dissented from the decision, the first time since 1993. Turmoil continues to brew at the Federal Reserve, and it’s very likely that the next Grey Swan event is kicked off from events swirling around the Fed, its Chairman Jerome Powell, and President Trump – who once again took to Truth Social this morning to criticize Powell for being, “TOO LATE.” That’s why assets like gold, which also sold off yesterday, still look attractive.
