Reading it I was struck by how absurd talking about a 90 day tariff delay was. It was just a random amount of time he selected. What's to stop another 90 day delay? "We are close folks, so many deals, can't get them all done because so many foreigners want our stuff. We'll give them six more months." This just goes on for four more years.

Yes, additional tariff delays could go on for four years. But if the goal is to get companies to invest in the US, few will make the $ commitment as long as the tariff policy is so fluid. It's hard to see more than a propaganda win for Trump and very hard to see any win for US consumers and businesses.

The uncertainty is rising every day.

This is why hedge funds are pulling out.

You likely receive hundreds of pitches.

This isn’t one of them.

Hello @Joseph Politano,

Have deep respect for what you have built here.

The 100x Farm is a quiet strategy sanctuary for investors and capital stewards with long memories and longer horizons.

No noise. No dopamine. No trend-chasing. 

Just deep-cycle clarity earned slowly, shared rarely.

We don’t believe in inbox conquest.

But if the idea of sowing $10,000 seeds to harvest $1 million trees over 20- 30 years feels familiar,

you and your patrons may already belong here.

What if the next 100x isn’t a stock but a forgotten business model hiding in plain sight?

Every thesis is backed by real capital, filtered through over 100 long-cycle lenses before it earns a word.

And if nothing else, this may help you filter what isn’t worth your time.

No urgency. No ask.

Only signal.

Warmly,

The 100x Farmer

Just got put onto you by Paul Krugman. Glad I came. Good, informative article. It's a lot worse than I thought, telling me that legacy media has been bamboozling me. Glad to drop the scales from my eyes.

I believe before the election Trump had said something about wanting to implement a 25% national sales tax, but I may be remembering wrong. Looks like he's done it via the back door. Look Ma, no Congress.

Just another nothing burger. Tariff need to go down for all products not just for the rich.

I just wish the American public understood this better. I have been telling people when Trump comes up that the damage he's doing is likely far in the future, not the short term. I can easily see a world where Trump limps by well enough in the short run, that voters think he's doing fine.

Its not finished yet. Watch 2025China protests China has been in the dumps for a few years. You believe the lying media. I lead a team of 35 Professors at Universities who participate in the Expert and Government Review of the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change Reports for the Global Change Group of the National Academy of Sciences. There reports are deliberate science fiction. As an example, when Jim Skea the liar said we need to lower carbon dioxide by 45% by 2030 he was basing that statement on a paragraph buried on page 95 in the SR 1.5 report. That paragraph has no references. They made it up. We forced them to move it to page 6 of the AR6 report paragraph b.1.3. Also for working group 1 for SR 1.5 we found the Global Warming Potential model was fake. It wasn’t benchmarked with the data in annex two (appendix two). Also their fake model assumes equal concentrations of greenhouse gases which will never happen carbon dioxide is 219 times more concentrated than methane. Also they ignore the below cure taught is every college chemistry and physics classes since the 1940’s. Any Bill which brings in money for climate change that money must be paid the Climate Change Truth Inc. cctruth.org
