The Receding Tariff Tide

About this episode

This episode discusses the impact of the President's announcement of reciprocal tariffs on U.S. trading partners and its effect on stock prices.

A year ago this week, the President announced what he described as “reciprocal tariffs” on goods imported from all major U.S. trading partners. These tariffs, which were much broader and higher than expected, led to an immediate and sharp decline in stock prices.
