Earlier Tuesday, Trump warned that “a whole civilization will die tonight, never to be brought back again.” Yet the S&P 500 eked out a modest gain on the day, underscoring how investors have grown accustomed to looking through increasingly extreme threats.
“I think what we have seen is President Trump tends to offer up or threaten maximalist position. And what the market is learning is, the more extreme the position is, the more likely a compromise is going to occur,” said Ed Mills, managing director and Washington policy analyst at Raymond James.
Somebody on the poli board said something similar yesterday and I shorted a few OTM SPXL puts. Obviously I didn't sell enough.

I bought USO puts yesterday afternoon and sold them this morning. Didn’t really expect the turnaround to be in 12 hours, but it’s nice to get lucky every now and then. Wish I would’ve bought more.
