Andrew Beal, the billionaire founder and owner of Beal Financial Corporation, has publicly supported President Donald Trump&#8216;s contentious tariff policies, despite the resulting upheaval in the financial markets.
What Happened: Beal, in an exclusive interview with <a href="https://www.marketwatch.com/story/americas-richest-banker-says-trump-is-on-the-right-track-with-shock-and-awe-tariffs-e34bbae1">MarketWatch</a> on Monday, defended Trump&#8217;s "shock and awe" tariffs as essential for promoting free and equitable trade and for redefining the U.S.&#8217;s position in the global economy. He encouraged Trump to ignore requests for a tariff suspension from individuals such as billionaire hedge-fund manager Bill Ackman.
"Bill Ackman is wrong. We don't need another moratorium for 90 days," stated Beal and urged to seize the opportunity now.
Beal criticized the Federal Reserve&#8217;s monetary policies and the government&#8217;s deficit spending, asserting they have concealed the actual condition of the U.S. economy. He claimed that the real economy&#8217;s GDP has been contracting, while the reported GDP growth is primarily due to government spending.
The banker further contended that the U.S.&#8217;s trade deficit and fiscal deficit are untenable and must be addressed immediately to prevent long-term economic distress. Beal recognized the immediate effect of high tariffs on financial markets but maintained that there is no other feasible route forward.

Why It Matters: Beal, a staunch supporter of Trump, has donated approximately $5 million to Trump&#8217;s presidential campaigns. Despite this, he has seldom publicly discussed his political leanings. He felt the need to express his support for Trump&#8217;s policies because of the growing public backlash over their effect on financial markets.
Beal&#8217;s endorsement comes at a time when other financial figures have expressed concern over Trump&#8217;s tariff policies. <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/04/44659521/bill-ackman-warns-against-launching-economic-nuclear-war-wants-a-90-day-time-out-on-trump-tariffs">Bill Ackman</a> warned of the potential economic repercussions of escalating tariffs, stating that business relies heavily on trust and confidence. Ackman also called for a 90-day pause on tariff implementation. Similarly, <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/04/44665530/jamie-dimon-once-a-tariff-supporter-warns-trumps-new-policy-could-slow-us-growth-fuel-inflation-the-quicker-the-issue-is-resolved-the-better">Jamie Dimon</a>, CEO of JPMorgan Chase &amp; Co. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/JPM#NYSE">JPM</a>), cautioned that the tariffs could trigger inflation and slow the U.S. economy. Beal&#8217;s public support for Trump&#8217;s tariffs, despite these warnings, underscores the divisive nature of the policy.

Billionaire Banker Backs Trump's 'Shock And Awe' Tariff Policies, Slams Bill Ackman's Call For 90-Day Pause

RTX's Collins Aerospace Introduces Enhancements To SelfServ Platform An Integrated Common Use Self Service (CUSS) Solution

Legendary hedge fund manager Seth Klarman credits a counterintuitive lesson from Warren Buffett for shaping his investment success — a lesson that runs counter to the usual "spread your bets" mantra.
What Happened: In 2015, Klarman, who oversees the $30 billion Baupost Group, <a href="https://www.ft.com/content/6ab48700-a898-11e4-ad01-00144feab7de">told</a> the Financial Times that Buffett's "punch card" philosophy — treating investments as if you only have 20 slots for your entire life — transformed how he balances risk and reward. This approach encourages a tighter focus on quality businesses, rather than trying to hedge every possible angle.
&#8220;There is no need to overly diversify. Invest like you have a single, lifetime "punch card" with only 20 punches, so make each one count. Look broadly for opportunity, which can be found globally and in unexpected industries and structures,&#8221; wrote Klarman.
Buffett's stance challenges conventional wisdom, which often urges investors to diversify widely to reduce danger. According to him, excessive diversification merely protects against ignorance. In other words, if you know what you're doing, you don't need to own every stock under the sun. Instead, zero in on companies that boast "<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/general/11/06/1164308/build-a-wealthy-portfolio-with-these-economic-moats">economic moats</a>" — lasting advantages that can fend off rivals. That could mean a patented technology, strong brand loyalty, or a market where competition is scarce.
See also: <a href="https://in.benzinga.com/markets/25/03/44533852/what-would-buffett-do-with-markets-inches-away-from-the-extreme-fear-zone-is-it-finally-time-to-be-greedy">Warren Buffett Said &#8216;Be Fearful When Others Are Greedy, And Greedy When Others Are Fearful:&#8217; Does The Billionaire Investor&#8217;s Advice Hold Today As Markets Near The &#8216;Extreme Fear&#8217; Zone?</a>
Why It Matters: Still, neither Buffett nor Klarman advocate throwing caution to the wind. Strategic diversification remains a key defense, especially during bear markets. In such downturns, balancing select international stocks, short-term bonds, and some longer-term fixed-income assets can insulate a portfolio. This approach guards against severe losses, while preserving room to pounce on undervalued opportunities.
In practice, Klarman's track record shows how a leaner selection of investments can outperform a scattershot portfolio. By concentrating his capital in high-confidence ideas, he avoids the "diworsification" trap, a phrase <a href="https://www.cnbc.com/2023/11/29/charlie-munger-quotes-that-will-make-you-a-better-investor.html#:~:text=%22I%20think%20it's%20much%20easier,think%20I%20have%20an%20advantage.%22">coined</a> by Charlie Munger, that can dilute gains and mask pitfalls. And when the market stumbles, he relies on his carefully chosen buffer of diverse assets to steady returns. It's a disciplined two-step: identify great businesses worth backing for the long haul, and then round out those positions with strategic options for turbulent times.
For investors watching a twitchy market, the takeaway seems simple: big wins come from knowing what you own and why you own it, not from chasing every stock in sight. Buffett's "punch card" credo, as adopted by Klarman, suggests that sometimes the best strategy is finding a few gems — and hanging on tight.

Seth Klarman Learnt Warren Buffett's 'Lifetime Punch Card' Secret Long Ago — And It Helped Him Consistently Outperform The Market

Stocks and cryptocurrencies have been punched hard amid fears of economic fallout from President Donald Trump&#8217;s sweeping tariff measures.
Even so, Bitcoin, the world's largest cryptocurrency by market capitalization, has fared better than some of Wall Street&#8217;s tech behemoths.
What happened: The apex cryptocurrency has shed 15.79% of its value year-to-date, wiping out nearly $280 billion in investor wealth.&nbsp;
However, BTC was in a better position when compared with the "Magnificent 7" group, a cohort of seven large-cap technology companies.&nbsp;

As evident, Nvidia, Tesla, Google's parent company Alphabet, Apple, and Amazon have all reported losses of over 20% since 2025 began. Elon Musk-led electric vehicle maker Tesla was the worst performer, plunging over 40% in the period.
Microsoft matched Bitcoin's decline, plunging 15.90% year-to-date, while Facebook's parent, Meta, posted smaller losses than the leading cryptocurrency.

Financial expert Suze Orman took to Facebook to address growing investor anxiety amid a turbulent week marked by geopolitical tensions and escalating trade policies. Orman&#8217;s message attempted to strike a balance between acknowledging real risks and fear while committing to a disciplined strategy, offering a roadmap for navigating what she called &#8220;2022-style volatility.&#8221;
What Happened: Orman <a href="https://www.facebook.com/suzeorman/posts/pfbid02BPqLXwNG57yTgaQr1dQuCBSbKWZWxJnf2UiTBz66Bn1sKyAWhHE2Jq1YwKXNLFVml/">highlighted</a> several bright spots for investors willing to look beyond headline panic. She noted the 10-year Treasury yield's drop to 3.8%, which could ease mortgage rates for prospective homebuyers. Bondholders, she added, might see portfolios stabilize as yields compress, providing rare fixed-income relief after years of rate hikes.
Her most emphatic recommendation focused on <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/best-credit-unions">Alliant Credit Union's</a> CDs, offering 4.25%-4.30% APY for 12-17 months. &#8220;That rate is incredible — don't miss it,&#8221; she warned, framing them as a safe harbor amid equity swings. Orman also pointed to gold's surge past $3,150/ounce and crude oil's breakdown below $65/barrel as signals of shifting capital flows, suggesting diversified portfolios could leverage these moves.

<h4 class="wp-block-heading">&#8216;Metrics Over Emotion&#8217;</h4>
Central to Orman's advice was monitoring the CBOE Volatility Index (VIX), <a href="https://in.benzinga.com/25/04/44678610/volatility-gauge-vix-spikes-118-in-3-days-tops-45-for-2nd-day-first-time-since-gfc-and-pandemic">which spiked above 45</a> — a level not seen since August 2024. &#8220;When the VIX is this high, it means fear is overwhelming logic,&#8221; she writes, emphasizing that similar VIX peaks historically preceded market rebounds. This metric, combined with disciplined dollar-cost averaging using &#8220;seriously tiny amounts,&#8221; forms her core defensive strategy.
Why It Matters: The fear among people that Orman refers to in her post stems largely from <a href="https://in.benzinga.com/news/global/25/04/44620889/trumps-liberation-day-tariffs-roil-markets-as-china-slams-typical-unilateral-bullying-asian-markets-plunge">Trump's fresh tariffs</a> on Chinese imports, enacted April 2 as part of his "Liberation Day" reset of American trade policy. Orman specifically cited China's retaliatory measures as the immediate trigger for the April selloff, creating a mix of trade friction and AI sector fears. However, in a <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TNCHtqNWsgw">video</a> on her YouTube channel, she urges investors to distinguish between transient headlines and durable holdings, singling out AT&amp;T and Verizon as dividend stocks providing portfolio stability.
Reiterating a cornerstone of her philosophy, Orman also stressed that &#8220;money needed within five years doesn't belong in stocks&#8221;. For those adhering to retirement contributions, she advised unwavering consistency: &#8220;If you are contributing to a retirement account, do not stop. Stay the course. Keep investing steadily. That consistency is your power.&#8221;

Suze Orman Advises 'Calm' To Those 'Afraid Of What's Happening' In The Market: Here's Her Game Plan To Tackle 2022-Style Volatility

The Supreme Court on Monday allowed President Donald Trump to enforce the centuries-old Alien Enemies Act, enabling faster deportations of suspected gang members. The unsigned order grants Trump broad authority to invoke the 1798 law while litigation continues in lower courts.
What Happened: Originally intended for wartime emergencies, the law's use has sparked intense debate over presidential power. According to a CNN <a href="https://edition.cnn.com/2025/04/07/politics/supreme-court-deportation-flights-trump/index.html">report</a>, three liberal justices dissented, and Justice Amy Coney Barrett partially dissented. Still, the ruling preserves some safeguards by requiring that deportees receive formal notice and a chance for judicial review.
Trump celebrated the decision on Truth Social, calling it "a great day for justice in America." Attorney General Pam Bondi and Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem praised the outcome, arguing that it reaffirms a president's right to protect national security.

Critics, including Justice Sonia Sotomayor, say the government's rush to remove migrants "poses an extraordinary threat to the rule of law." She pointed to an ongoing proceeding before US District Judge James Boasberg, who is deciding whether administration officials <a href="https://in.benzinga.com/25/03/44428767/trump-administration-failed-to-respond-to-court-order-on-deportation-flights-explain-non-compliance-by-tuesday-says-judge">disobeyed an earlier order</a> by continuing deportation flights.
Justice Ketanji Brown Jackson also voiced alarm, criticizing the court's reliance on the emergency docket and likening the moment to the infamous Korematsu ruling that allowed Japanese American internment during World War II.
Why It Matters: The Trump administration asserts that an influx of Venezuelan gang members amounts to an "invasion," justifying the use of the Alien Enemies Act. Opponents argue such rapid deportations risk errors — like the mistaken removal of a Maryland father under a different policy — while leaving migrants with little time to seek legal relief.
By granting Trump's request, the Supreme Court effectively suspends Boasberg's orders blocking the law's use, setting the stage for more legal battles ahead.
Despite the controversy, a <a href="https://in.benzinga.com/news/25/02/43769836/trump-gains-trust-of-majority-on-americans-on-immigration-and-economy" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">recent poll</a> indicates that 52% of Americans trust Trump&#8217;s handling of immigration. This trust is particularly strong among Republicans, with 87% expressing confidence in his immigration policies. However, the administration's approach to deportations and its legal challenges could impact public perception and policy implementation.

On Monday, April 7th, U.S. markets closed mixed; U.S. stocks dropped Monday as fears of economic slowdown and rising inflation grew, sparked by President Trump&#8217;s stance on tariffs against China.
The S&amp;P 500 and Dow hit new lows before briefly rallying, only to fall again. Market volatility soared, and investors lost confidence in Trump&#8217;s trade strategy, leading to massive losses and uncertainty.
In economic data, the Manheim Used Vehicle Value Index slipped by 0.7% in March compared to the previous month, continuing the same rate of decline seen in February.
Most S&amp;P 500 sectors fell Monday, led by real estate, materials, and utilities, while communication services and tech stocks ended higher.
The Dow Jones Industrial Average declined 0.91% to 37,965.60, the S&amp;P 500 dropped 0.23% to 5,062.25, while the Nasdaq Composite gained 0.10% to close at 15,603.26.
Global markets rebounded Tuesday after heavy losses, with Asian, European, and U.S. stocks stabilizing amid hopes for trade talks. Despite some optimism, volatility remained high as tariff tensions persisted.

After a volatile Monday on Wall Street, stock futures improved in after-hours trading, offering a break after a day of <a href="http://Tesla, Nvidia, Apple And Other 'Magnificent 7' Peers Tank In Monday Premarket: What's Going On?">intense whiplash</a>. The Dow, <a href="http://S&amp;P 500 Officially Sinks Into Bear Market: Here's What Investors Need To Know">S&amp;P 500</a>, and Nasdaq-100 futures each rose more than 1%, recovering from previous chaos sparked by reinvigorated U.S.-China trade tensions. A morning rally, triggered by conjecture that new tariffs might be delayed, briefly pushed the S&amp;P 500 up 7% from its low. But <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/government/regulations/25/04/44670193/wall-street-turmoil-deepens-as-trump-threatens-massive-china-tariffs-bitcoin-wobbles-at-78k-whats-driving-markets-monday">markets changed course</a> after the Trump administration confirmed that the tariff hike on Chinese goods was still in place, <a href="http://China 'Resolutely Opposes' Trump's 50% Tariff Threat, Vows Countermeasures As Trade Tensions Jolt Markets: 'Will Fight To The End'">leading China to threaten further retaliation.</a>
As<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/equities/25/04/44661978/bill-ackman-blames-market-collapse-on-tariff-timing-says-trump-advisor-should-be-fired-now-predicts-a-lot-more-than-5-dip"> investors continue to scramble</a> and <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/general/market-summary/25/04/44662164/us-stock-futures-slump-following-massive-tariff-induced-selloff-experts-warn-of-a-brewing-great-depression-like-pattern">headlines amplify the panic</a>, personal finance expert Dave Ramsey's advice from a stock market crash a few months ago can provide some useful insight on how to handle the wild ride.
What Happened: During a call on The Ramsey Show, a listener asked Ramsey how to respond to the <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/25/04/44657155/buffetts-warning-as-stocks-plunge-the-light-can-at-any-time-go-from-green-to-red">collapsing stock market</a>. Ramsey quipped, "Cue the whining, screaming and gnashing of teeth that everyone's going to die and we're all going to retire and have to eat Alpo."
Ramsey stressed that dramatic headlines and market swings are not a new phenomenon—and not a reason to abandon healthy investing habits. While many people are tempted to pull money out or pause contributions during ambiguous times, Ramsey doubled down on a contrary approach: stay consistent, keep investing, and don't let emotions rule your decisions.

Why It Matters: Ramsey's core philosophy centers on long-term discipline. He cast aside the idea of day trading or trying to time the market, saying, "I don't do anything… because I don't day trade." Instead, he says investors should stay steady no matter what the market is doing. "I just keep buying all the time… every month I just keep buying."
Ramsey's Advice For A Volatile Market
When stocks drop, he views it as a <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/equities/25/04/44677995/jim-cramer-says-market-rebound-feels-strange-after-nine-nights-of-losses-things-arent-better-as-stock-futures-surge-over-1">buying opportunity</a>, not a crisis. "When it goes down I'm going to smile 'cause I just bought it on sale."
To avoid getting swept up in the hype, Ramsey intentionally<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/25/04/44671308/stock-market-surge-evaporates-as-headline-roulette-plagues-traders-fake-news-white-house-says-in-response-to-90-day-tariff-pause"> protects himself from the noise</a>. When asked if he follows the news, his answer was straightforward: "No, I don't watch the news." For him, the less emotional chatter, the better.
Automation is another crucial part of his strategy. "Set my 401k contributions… they happen automatically. I'm not thinking about it," he explained. And as for keeping an eye on his investments? "I look at mine once or twice a year… if I'm doing some kind of year-end final."
Ramsey also encouraged listeners to<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/general/education/25/04/44674343/these-5-sp-500-winners-held-strong-in-q1-can-the-rally-continue"> hold on to a long-term perspective</a>. "Ten years from now, you won't even remember this crap. Ten years from now you won't even know who was president," he said.
In a market climate where fear can travel faster than facts, Dave Ramsey wants investors to stay steady. Geopolitical tensions, tariff threats, or sudden selloffs are all part of the emotional rollercoaster of the market, and, according to Ramsey, not a reason to abandon your plan.
"Short term the stock market going up or down is a bunch of drama queens… They run on emotion on a daily basis," he said.
