FAQ

Why Bearish?

Tariffs typically dampen trade, negatively affecting S&P 500 companies reliant on exports. Historical instances, like the U.S.-China trade war, showed significant market declines arising from similar tariff threats.

How important is it?

The potential for tariffs creates significant uncertainty affecting investor confidence and market performance, particularly in industries heavily reliant on trade.

Why Short Term?

Market reaction to tariffs is usually immediate but may stabilize over time. For example, initial tariffs can lead to rapid falls in stock prices before a longer-term adjustment occurs.
