Gear Second... For the Stock Market!
Hey everyone it's your captain Monkey D. Luffy! I heard about these 'technology stocks' doing the Gum Gum Rocket all over the place. Up down spin around! Sounds just like my kind of party! Apparently the 'Nasdaq' – sounds like a cool island name doesn't it? – was flat. Flat like a pancake Nami makes... before I eat it all! Some giant 'Apple' company went down too! Maybe they didn't share enough with their crew shishishi!
Meat or No Meat? Tariffs Ahoy!
So it seems like this 'White House' (sounds like a big castle with lots of meat!) might delay some 'tariffs'. Tariffs are like those annoying Sea Kings that try to eat our ship! These tariffs are making the market go wild! Like when Zoro gets lost and ends up in the kitchen it's chaos! Some big companies like 'Alphabet' 'Meta' and 'Amazon' (not the rainforest sadly) were all lower. I wonder if they have any meat there?
The Magnificent Seven... Billion Berries Lost!
I heard the 'Magnificent Seven' (sounds like a pirate crew) lost a bunch of 'berries' – I mean 'market value'! 1.8 trillion! That's enough meat to feed my whole crew for a year! Maybe even longer! These stocks are gyrating like Usopp trying to act brave! It's all because of these 'tariffs' that are making everyone nervous. It’s like when Kaido shows up and everyone starts sweating!
Semiconductor Island Found! (Maybe)
But wait! Some 'semiconductor stocks' (whatever those are they sound delicious!) are bouncing back! One of them called 'Broadcom' (sounds like a giant pirate with a wide smile) is buying back its own 'shares'. Sounds like they're hoarding treasure! Another one 'Marvell Technology' (are they as amazing as me? Probably not!) is selling its car stuff for a bunch of cash. Everyone's making deals just like in Water 7!
Chipmakers and the Tariff Treasure!
These 'chipmakers' (they make chips? Do they share?) weren't affected by the tariffs at first but they're still worried! Worried that people won't want their stuff because of the tariffs! It’s like being worried that Sanji will run out of meat! We gotta protect our food... I mean these businesses!
The Future? I'm Gonna Be King of the Stocks!
So what's going to happen? I don't know! But I do know one thing: I'm gonna be King of the Pirates! And maybe just maybe I'll learn a thing or two about these stocks! Shishishi! Just gotta keep an eye on those tariffs – they’re like Crocodile trying to steal my dream! I'll protect it with everything I've got!

Can Sanji make a stock-themed dish?
