TRUMP ADMINISTRATION TO BEGIN REFUNDING $166B IN TARIFFS The U.S. government will start refunding up to $166 billion in Trump-era tariffs after the Supreme Court ruled the policy unlawful. From April 20, businesses can file claims through a new Customs system to recover duties paid under emergency powers. Courts found only Congress can impose tariffs, forcing the rollback. Over 330,000 importers across 53 million shipments may be eligible. Once approved, refunds—plus interest—should arrive within 60–90 days, though complex cases may take longer. Officials warn the process will be massive and complex, but payments will go directly to the businesses that originally paid.


If I were to run an Airbnb it'd definitely be in Puglia. Just off the phone with the owner of this 65m² apartment in the historic centre of Ostuni. He's selling for €275k ($323k) and it nets him around €30k a year. 2025 gross was €36k from Airbnb and Booking alone, plus a decent chunk more from private bookings through Instagram and WhatsApp. Total revenue lands around €50k. After utilities, cleaner, laundry, pool maintenance and the rest, net sits around €30k. The apartment is spread across multiple levels in Ostuni's oldest quarter, with lovely views as you can see in the second pic. Vaulted stone ceilings, a fireplace, and a rooftop terrace. Plus an instagramable spa pool carved into the basement which drives them a lot of bookings. Tell me where else in the world this kind of return is possible right now?



I'm going to suspend my policy to berate everyone on this topic just this one time: who cares if someone people short bitcoin, or dump Bitcoin? people short bitcoin on insider info *all the time* (see Trump family). The average weekly Bitcoin trading volume is millions of coins per week. Whenever someone buys Bitcoin, its because someone else is selling Bitcoin. In the very remote scenario that someone does crack vulnerable public keys, they can't just market dump 3M bitcoin at once. There just is not enough liquidity to do that. Not that I support this at all but I guarantee you that all the major exchanges would immediately freeze those accounts. There is not enough liquidity on dex or p2p or even mixers to solve that. The attacker would slowly cash out wherever and whenever he can. The coins will eventually just find their way into the hands of holders. At worse we end up with a bear market. It will last whoever long it lasts. Might be a big drawdown. People might panic sell. Treasury companies might go bankrupt. Leverage might get whiped. Who cares? Some well funded attacker is able to make billions in profits by shorting Bitcoin. Who cares? If someone is able to pull that off, kudos to them honestly. Welcome to free markets!
