Stocks sell off globally as traders digest Trump message
- cjbenedikt 10mo ago"The Norwegian government has no control over how the Nobel Committee awards its prizes. Greenland is a territory of Denmark, not Norway." 'nuff said.
- benj111 10mo agoTBF, you shouldn't even need to quote that clarification. Surely the first step in the 'art of the deal' is checking that the party you want to make a deal with actually controls the thing you want. Although like an onion, this has layers. Is not getting a Nobel prize a good reason to start a war? Is it proof that irony isn't always funny?
- LargoLasskhyfv 10mo agoWhy would he write that to a norwegian official, when the Nobel Prize is a swedish thing?! Whaddäbbout Epstein, btw?
- pseudohadamard 10mo ago>Why would he write that to a norwegian official, when the Nobel Prize is a swedish thing?! That makes perfect sense, it's a very Trump thing to do. Like slapping tariffs on an uninhabited island.
- james_r12 10mo agoThe Nobel Peace Prize is a Norwegian thing.
- LargoLasskhyfv 10mo agoOopsie! I've overlooked that exception :-) Maybe because of the millions of SEK. But still...: What about Epstein? (Everybody should ask him that, every single time he utters something! Until it's all in the open. Unredacted.)

- james_r12 10mo agoIndeed it seems that nobody is quite sure why the exception was even made [1]. I second the sentiment about Epstein... [1] https://www.nobelpeaceprize.org/nobel-peace-prize/history/why-norway https://www.nobelpeaceprize.org/nobel-peace-prize/history/wh...
- rsynnott 10mo agoI mean I would assume that the extent of Trump's knowledge of the Nordics is "where Santa lives", tbh.
- DivingForGold 10mo agoWill Trump have a rather Large security contingent while at Davos ?
- Mr_Eri_Atlov 10mo agoEvery day I wake up and check if it's happened
- jacquesm 10mo agoAnd you're disappointed. Just like me.
- burnt-resistor 10mo agoPutting the 11th Airborne, a specialized arctic warfare attack battalion, on 4-hour deployment standby for "Minnesota" is a clear pre-attack or bluff signal for Greenland. 25a must be invoked now before this idiotic insanity gets any more real and unrecoverable.
