Wall Street strategists are warning that the S&P 500 (^GSPC) rally may struggle in the near term amidst volatility concerns tied to inflation, the interest rate environment, and the impact on consumer confidence.
Sam Stovall, CFRA Research’s chief investment strategist, joins Morning Brief hosts Seana Smith and Brad Smith to discuss these worries while providing insights into the current market outlook (^DJI, ^IXIC, ^GSPC).
“I think investors are a little concerned about [President Trump’s] tariffs, what kind of an effect they will have on the economy and on inflation. And, they’re taking a wait-and-see attitude,” Stovall says. The Trump administration’s tariffs on imported goods from Canada, Mexico, and China are set to take effect tomorrow, Tuesday, March 4.
Stovall envisions investors as “fainting goats,” stating that “you sneak up behind them and whisper bear market and their legs freeze.” He also speculates that if tariffs are implemented tomorrow, “I think they will be around for a very short time.”
