Investing under Trump 2.0

Markets rebound as Trump outlines reciprocal tariffs

Stocks and bonds both rallied on Thursday after US President Trump signed a directive on reciprocal tariffs but stopped short of imposing immediate measures. While the delay in implementation limits the immediate market impact, the risk of retaliation remains.

VP Vance threatens sanctions, military action over peace deal

US Vice President JD Vance threatened both economic and military “tools of leverage” against Russia if a peace deal is not reached that ensures Ukrainian independence. Our base case is for a ceasefire to be reached during the year, though negotiations may be protracted given the lack of trust and distance between desired outcomes.

US President Trump orders more tariffs

US President Donald Trump announced a new 25% tariff on all steel and aluminum imports on Monday. Despite rising tariff risks, we still expect that a solid US economy, AI tailwinds, and gradual Fed rate cuts will offer a favorable backdrop for equities. We continue to expect the S&P 500 to end the year higher.
