Tariff Impact
- Tariffs will likely increase inflation and hinder economic growth, but the extent of both remains uncertain.
- The main question is whether the economic impact will be a short-term dip or a more prolonged issue.
Market Reactions and Correlations

- This week, correlations broke as equities fell and interest rates rose, possibly due to risk premium adjustments.
