FAQ

Why Bearish?

The threat of tariffs and restrictive measures can disrupt global trade, which negatively impacts S&P 500 earnings. Historical examples include 2018 trade tensions with China, which led to market instability.

How important is it?

Tariffs and trade restrictions can directly impact S&P 500 companies' profitability, influencing investor sentiment significantly. The U.S. has a substantial economic influence, making developments in trade policy vital for S&P performance.

Why Short Term?

Immediate market reactions are expected due to sudden geopolitical tensions; however, longer effects depend on negotiations. Similar situations, like the initial market drop during the 2018 tariffs announcement, saw short-term volatility before stabilizing.
