Market reaction to tariffs has diminished, focusing instead on earnings and Fed decisions. Historical evidence shows market fluctuations often correlate more with earnings than tariff news.
Trade deals impact investor sentiment but are currently overshadowed by earnings. As earnings reports unfold, the broader market, including the S&P 500, is likely to react more strongly to that news than to trade policy.
