President Donald Trump’s newly announced tariffs on Canada, Mexico, and China have introduced fresh concerns for markets, yet they are not an immediate bearish signal for the S&P 500, according to the Sevens Report.
Key Highlights:
- 25% import tariffs on Canada and Mexico, 10% on China were introduced over the weekend.
- The stated reason: pressuring these nations to curb illegal fentanyl shipments.
- Analysts speculate that the move could be a negotiating tactic ahead of the USMCA trade deal review in 2026.
- Equity exposure remains intact, as earnings and economic growth are still stable.
- However, DeepSeek’s AI breakthrough and higher tariffs could collectively create the perfect storm for a market pullback.
- A key question remains: Will these tariffs hold, or are they just leverage in trade negotiations?
How Will This Impact Stocks?
The S&P 500 has shown resilience despite AI-related volatility, but these tariffs could undermine strength in multiple sectors.
