💥 Did Trump just blame Greenland for the stock market crash? 🇬🇱📉
In a stunning address at the World Economic Forum in Davos today, January 21, 2026, President Trump officially attributed yesterday’s brutal market sell-off to the geopolitical standoff over his bid to acquire Greenland.
Despite the S&P 500 plunging 2.1%—its worst day in years—the President dismissed the dip as a minor hurdle, even while briefly confusing Greenland with Iceland during his remarks.
The "Sell America" Reality Check:
🔻The Catalyst: Stocks tanked after Trump threatened 25% tariffs on European allies (UK, Germany, Denmark) if they blocked the Greenland deal.
🔻The Damage: The Nasdaq dropped 2.4%, with tech giants like Nvidia and Apple leading the retreat.
🔻The Pivot: Gold and Silver have surged to all-time highs as investors flee to safe havens.
While the markets saw a slight "Davos Bounce" today after Trump clarified he "won't use force" for the territory, the "Sell America" trade is officially in full swing.
Is this the start of a 2026 trade war, or just a "buying opportunity" as the President suggests?
