Buy Expected TACO (BET) Strategy

The markets were up big yesterday, due to Trump delaying destroying Iran's power infrastructure for 5 days.    It used to be buy the dip (BTD).  Now it's the Buy Expected TACO (BET). 

It appears that Trump is sensitive to the stock market response in the short term.  Trump seems to responds with a TACO when the market dips.  This started about a year ago with the implementation of tariffs in April 2025 and has consistently happened since then.

It's hard to predict what Trump will do.    For now, buy expected TACO seems to be working.   While it seems to be consistently a good strategy until now, it'll work until it doesn't. Once BET stops working, a significant correction may occur.   

As Yogi Berra once said, "It's hard to make predictions, especially about the future."
