Desi Girl Global Problems!

Namaste everyone! PC here your friendly neighborhood Bollywood turned Hollywood export. Now I'm no economist okay? My expertise lies in slaying red carpets delivering killer monologues (remember 'Quantico'?) and occasionally stealing Nick Jonas's hoodies. But even *I* can see that something's gone seriously sideways with this whole Trump tariffs situation. It's like is this real life? Are we seriously back in 2018? Someone get me a tequila!

Market Mayhem: My Diamonds Are Shivering!

So apparently the markets are in a full blown panic. We're talking Dow Jones down S&P 500 crying and even Bitcoin doing the cha cha slide downwards! And trust me if Bitcoin's having a bad day we're *all* in trouble. I mean how am I supposed to fund my next shoe shopping spree if the global economy is imploding? This is giving me serious 'Fashion' flashbacks but without the awesome Manish Malhotra wardrobe. Where's my chai?!

Lutnick's Logic: 'Tariffs Are Coming'

Commerce Secretary Lutnick is out there saying the tariffs are here to stay and the president needs to "reset global trade". Honey all I want to reset is my jet lag not the entire global economy! It's like I get wanting to shake things up but maybe we could start with something less…apocalyptic? Perhaps a nationwide contest for the best samosa recipe? Now *that's* a policy I can get behind! #SamosaPower

Recession? Bessent Says 'Nah!'

Treasury Secretary Bessent is all sunshine and rainbows dismissing recession fears and saying everything's fine. Bless his heart. It's like when I tell my stylists that I totally woke up like this after a 16 hour flight. We all know it's a lie! But hey if positive thinking can save the world I'm ready to meditate my way to global economic stability. Om Shanti and all that jazz!

Buffett's Berkshire: The Smartest Cookie in the Jar

Okay so Warren Buffett's company is doing okay ish. Good for him! At least *someone* knows how to play this game. Maybe I should invest in Berkshire. Or maybe I should just ask Nick to explain it to me in terms I understand – like how many Birkins can I buy with one share? Priorities people!

China's Take: 'The Market Has Spoken'

And finally China's basically said 'The market has spoken!' after Trump's tariff tantrum. Guys can't we all just get along? Maybe a global potluck is in order? I'll bring the biryani someone else can handle the…uh…tariffs situation. Seriously can we all agree that the only war we should be fighting is the war against bad hair days? Someone get me a hair mask! Peace out!

    She's right, we should focus on the real problems, like bad hair days!
