STACO Exchange (noun)
Pronounced: /ˈstækō iks-ˌchānj/
A mock or metaphorical marketplace where political bravado is traded for retreat. Named after the acronym TACO ("Trump Always Chickens Out"), it refers specifically to the cyclical pattern of bold economic threats followed by backpedaling, especially in U.S. trade policy.
A parody of the stock exchange, the STACO Exchange is the arena where speculative bluster gets inflated, then dumped, based on erratic political behavior, most notably Trump-era tariff talk that rarely materialized.
