Impact of Trade Policies on Economic Growth
The trade policies implemented by the Trump administration have introduced significant uncertainty into the U.S. economy, impacting growth projections and investment behavior. CEOs and investors are responding to this volatility by tightening their spending and delaying investments, anticipating a potential slowdown in economic performance. Government data indicates a contraction of 0.3 percent in the U.S. economy as companies imported goods ahead of tariff implementations, reflecting immediate responses to trade concerns. This uncertainty is causing a re-evaluation of U.S. assets, with investors demanding a higher risk premium as they assess the future landscape of trade and economic policy.
