Market Sentiment and Economic Wests
Tariffs are causing contractions in economic activity, but the cumulative impact may be more limited than anticipated. Current trends suggest a switch-like recovery akin to the post-COVID economy, allowing for quicker economic rebounds. However, the potential for technical contractions remains, with ongoing uncertainties regarding U.S. debt and supply chain dependencies. This results in a risk-on approach focusing primarily on positivity surrounding U.S. equities and corporate credit over government bonds.
