I've now learned that it's best to get into Trump's stock market manipulations early (duh) and exit before you think it's going to end.
I bought into some clean energy ETF (which admittedly aren't as clean as I'd like them to be, some of the holdings are natural gas) and Equinor stock (because hey, European oil should go up when gulf oil isn't available, right?) during this entire Hormuz thing, but way too late. The clean energy ETF, which I'm planning to hold for longer anyway and got more of, is doing well. The Equinor stock, which I thought I'd sell soon, is down a bit. Had I bought earlier, it would've been up quite a bit.
We already know Trump's gonna walk back and forth on anything he says, next time it might as well be nicer to get in early and then exit early (since you never know when it REALLY ends).
