A wild day on Wall Street sees Apple rebounding, Walmart playing it safe, and Trump's words sending shockwaves through pharma stocks. Uncertainty? Yeah, Bitch!

Apple's Comeback: A Taste of My Own Medicine?

Alright listen up. So Apple huh? Heard they bounced back after a bit of a tumble. Seems like even the big boys aren't immune to a little…pressure. Trump's tariffs on China where they make all those shiny toys are giving them the same kind of headaches I used to get when I was short on pseudoephedrine. Manufacturing costs you know? It's all about the chemistry or in this case the economics. Still a 5% jump? Not bad. Though let's be real I've seen bigger numbers. But hey everybody needs a win once in a while right? Even Jesse.

Walmart: Playing It Safe Like Skyler With the Car Wash

Walmart now there's a company that knows how to hunker down. Their CFO's out there saying they'll grab more market share in tough times. Sounds like they're playing it safe just like Skyler trying to legitimize my… activities. They scrapped their quarterly guidance but kept the yearly outlook unchanged? That's cautious almost… boring. But hey boring can be good. Boring keeps you out of jail or at least out of the DEA's crosshairs.

Versace Drama: Deal's Off! Maybe Some Things Are Best Left Dead

Capri's stock jumped because a deal to sell Versace to Prada might fall through. Some things are best left dead. That’s how I felt about Gale Boetticher ahem nevermind. It's a reminder that not every deal is a good deal just like not every partner is a reliable partner. Remember what happened with Tuco? Exactly. Sometimes walking away is the only smart move.

Delta's Turbulence: Tariffs Grounding Profits!

Delta Air Lines is feeling the pinch. Tariffs are messing with bookings according to their CEO. Serves 'em right for charging extra for peanuts right? But seriously tariffs hitting the airline industry? That's a sign that these trade wars are starting to bite impacting everything. Just like my little operation started small and then BOOM Heisenberg. Only difference is I made money. Looks like Trump is just making a mess.

Trump's Social Media: 'Buy! Buy! Buy!' It's Always About the Ego

Trump's social media company is up because he told people to buy it. 'THIS IS A GREAT TIME TO BUY!!! DJT,' he shouts into the digital void. Now that's a guy who knows how to manipulate a market not that I'd know anything about that. It's all about the ego isn't it? Just like me trying to build an empire. Except he's got the White House. I just had a double wide trailer.

Pharma Panic: 'Major Tariff' Scares Big Pharma a Warning

And then there's the pharma giants. Eli Lilly Pfizer AbbVie all taking a hit after Trump threatened tariffs on pharmaceuticals. Karma! They've been ripping people off for years selling life saving drugs for a fortune. Maybe this will bring them down a peg. Just goes to show even the most powerful companies can be brought to their knees with the right… ingredients. I’m talking about legislative pressure of course.

    Trump is playing 4D chess. Is he doing this on purpose?

    Heisenberg would have known how to play this market volatility. Smartest guy I ever knew.
