Wild swings, up sharply on the open, plunge in the afternoon. Someone said Dow +1400, then -500? It was common to see 10 point swings in AI tech, but chips - AMD, Intel - smashed, just smashed.

Even some conservative economists calling for tariff repeal. Unless that alteration is taken I expect to see Dow 28,000 before too long.
