My Spider Sense is Tingling...and Not in a Good Way!
Alright web heads your friendly neighborhood Spider Man here giving you the lowdown on something that's got my Spidey sense going haywire. Seems like Mr. President Trump has slapped some serious tariffs on China. And according to that Jim Cramer guy over at CNBC these aren't just your run of the mill tariffs – they're practically an embargo! 'With great power comes great responsibility,' right? But sometimes I wonder if everyone got that memo...
Addicted to Cheap Chinese Imports?! Ouch!
Cramer's saying we're hooked on cheap Chinese stuff. He's not wrong is he? I mean where else can you get a Spider Man mask for like five bucks? Okay maybe it falls apart after one swing but still! He even said that as a nation shamefully we've gotten addicted to cheap Chinese imports. If I didn't have super strength I'd feel a little weak after that one.
Stock Market Doomsday: Aunt May's Gonna Need Extra Bingo Money!
The stock market took a nosedive faster than I can swing across Manhattan. The S&P 500 Nasdaq and Dow Jones all took a beating. Investors are freaking out and Aunt May's probably worried about her bingo money. Seriously guys can we try to keep things stable? I've got enough villains to deal with without the economy collapsing too!
Apple Dell and the Great Chinese Gadget Machine!
Cramer was name dropping big companies like Apple Hewlett Packard and Dell saying they rely on China for manufacturing. Which makes sense; every time I try to build my own web shooters something goes wrong. I mean can you imagine if Stark Industries suddenly had trouble getting parts? The Avengers would be using like carrier pigeons.
Expensive America? Not on My Watch!
So what does this all mean? According to Cramer things could get expensive around here and unemployment might go up. He's talking about finding other sources for stuff but that's not gonna happen overnight. 'With great power comes great responsibility!' I wonder if the White House is watching Mad Money?
My Web Sense Says: Stay Tuned True Believers!
The White House hasn't commented yet but I'll keep you posted. I gotta swing off and stop a runaway bus (again) but keep your eyes peeled for updates. And remember true believers even in the face of economic turmoil there's always hope... and a friendly neighborhood Spider Man!
