要保护本地公司对抗美国关税，关键就是 以牙还牙。首先，对美国公司征收同等关税，把收来的钱用来补贴受影响的本地企业，确保它们不会因为额外成本而被迫涨价，保持竞争力。例如，若马来西亚手套公司被特朗普政府加税，政府可以利用对美国产品的关税收入来补贴这些公司，确保它们的价格维持稳定，继续在国际市场竞争。这样，美国占不到便宜，本地企业也不会吃亏，实现双赢！Malaysia must subsidies US imposed Tariff on local export. Malaysia must implement equal amount on tariff on US import and use it as subsidies for local export.

US basically said Ukraine have to accept defeat because they are weak. It no longer matter if they are right or wrong. Time to wake up. If you let charity mindset running, letting your people to be weak globally, and you invest very little on military, thinking some first world countries army will come save you, one day you don't have a country. Remember Ukraine president only have a voice. But Voice alone can't save a country. When speaking on global issue, better remain silent. Or else, when the real war comes, you will be like Zelenskyy. Remember invader can comes anytime, next year, next 5 years or 50 years, are you sure what you have is yours forever?
Who is right and who is wrong? I bet in a court, the one who first hit another is consider wrong. But in a global scale, there is no court. There is a imaginary court. Of cos, there are some who donate weapon to see you fight and see you beg them. So they feel like God.
The infamous Trump said he will put 100% on BRICS who attempt to bypass USD. But today, he is bypassing USD by investing in 5 crypto. Anyway, this is good news, crypto was created to fool the US Trillionaire. I am very happy that they caught the traps. To those who hold bit coin, make sure you sell all before Trump term end.
Trudeau not willing to lift Canada’s retaliatory tariffs if Trump leaves some tariffs on Canada. Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau has made it clear that Canada will not lift its retaliatory tariffs on the U.S. unless President Donald Trump removes all U.S. tariffs on Canada. Trudeau's position, supported by other Canadian officials, reflects a firm stance against partial tariff reductions. Trump recently imposed new tariffs on Canada, Mexico, and China, sparking retaliations from these countries. Despite some U.S. industries lobbying for tariff exemptions, Trudeau and Ontario Premier Doug Ford emphasized the need for zero tariffs. Canada has also expressed frustration with the unpredictability of U.S. policies under Trump, while some provinces took symbolic actions, such as banning U.S. liquor. Economic concerns are growing, particularly for the auto industries in both countries, with potential job losses.
6 March: Trump -2 (delay automotive tariff by one month, agriculture tariff next) , Trudeau+1 (No tariff remove unless US remove all tariff)
(Canada Go Go Go! Mexico, Europe and China don't back down!!!) (Tesla YTD -40% Sayonara Elon) (Buffett gonna have one last great investment before he go heaven and share the stories with Munger.)

PMX, time to U Turn on tax on dividend. Dont even think of increase it nor cut 1% from it. Just remove it. Keep it simple. Letting the stock market continue to fall will only result in snap election and frog jumping. Trust me. I know.
Yes, totally agreed. I think they try to do too much in 2 years without considering the impact to businesses and also the failure to react to global changes. With so much talk about AI, they are still unable to foresee one year ahead. When stock market crashes, all business will stop expansion and will start to layoff. I just worry that the longer this drag on, the longer it take for bursa to recover. The risk is very high now.
Yes, the tax on dividends constitutes double taxation. PMX must recognize that investors provide capital to help Madani companies grow, create jobs, yet the dividends they receive are not true profits. In accounting terms, they can be seen as a form of depreciation or amortization cost.
Furthermore, taxing dividends is unfair because investors may suffer capital losses when exiting their trades. Dividends alone cannot offset declines in share prices.
This is why we has never introduced a capital gains tax—80% of retail investors often incur significant losses. Unlike other tax systems, we does not allow retailers to offset these losses as tax credits against future earnings or their day job income. When retailers lose, the profits ultimately flow to either foreign or local institutions.
Therefore, tax on dividend punish investors for risking their capital in Bursa Market.
My thought of the day : Dear Trump Team, please advise your bos, it was the allies that made the U.S. strong. Last time, the U.S. market got support from both friendly and not-so-friendly nation funds. But since Trump started whacking allies with tariffs, global funds have been pulling out of the U.S. market.
Soon, Americans will realize they’re not as strong without their allies. Whether Trump is just being dumb or actually working for Russia, we’ll find out soon enough. As for Barron Trump playing pump-and-dump games with the market, no one knows for sure. But one thing is clear, Warren Buffett is smart to protect his money from Trump’s nonsense.
Now the big question, will local institutions dump their U.S. assets at a loss? Anyway, this could be a golden chance for solid businesses to privatize or go for M&A. The key thing to think about is timing—when to buy, sell, hold, or short. Always keep an eye on the leading indicators.
The Dow dropped almost 900 points in a market rout after Trump said he won’t rule out a recession. I’ve been saying this since last year, Trump shouldn’t win. Look at his track record in following regulations and laws. Some people argue he’s good for the global economy because he's a businessman and that he’ll bring benefits to Malaysia. But look what’s happening now? An unstable person shouldn’t be in charge, and an ultra-rich guy who sees regular people as just numbers on his spreadsheet shouldn’t be leading either. (A warning to minister who see people as just a number.)
The market will only bounce back once he finds someone to blame and fires them.
