The resilience that allowed markets to shrug off initial tariff announcements appears to be waning as the scope and scale of trade restrictions expand.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;It is wild to think that valuations are above where we started the year considering all the uncertainties with tariffs, and we now have a new deadline,&#8221; said Mike Dickson, head of research and quantitative strategies at Horizon Investment. &#8220;The market&#8217;s been extremely desensitized to all of this back and forth, and I think for good reason.&#8221;<cscitation citation_id=\"task_1__1\"><\/cscitation><\/p>\n<p>However, Drew Pettit, Citi&#8217;s U.S. equity strategy director, warned that &#8220;the economy needs to continue to stay resilient for the rally to be sustainable,&#8221; suggesting that investors should closely monitor upcoming economic data for signs of weakness.<cscitation citation_id=\"task_2__1\"><\/cscitation><\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Looking_Ahead\"><\/span>Looking Ahead<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>As markets navigate the midday update, investors are closely watching for any further developments in trade policy, particularly regarding the European Union, where an update from Trump is expected but has not yet materialized. The president&#8217;s comment that &#8220;the tariffs have been very well-received&#8221; and his reference to the stock market hitting new highs yesterday suggest he may not be deterred by today&#8217;s market pullback.<cscitation citation_id=\"task_2__1\"><\/cscitation><\/p>\n<p>With earnings season about to begin and trade tensions escalating, market volatility could increase in the coming weeks. Investors will be paying particular attention to company guidance regarding the potential impact of tariffs on future profitability.<\/p>\n<p>The market&#8217;s ability to weather these challenges will depend largely on continued strength in corporate earnings and economic data. As one analyst put it, &#8220;The resilience we&#8217;ve seen so far this year is being tested, but the fundamental story of AI-driven growth and consumer strength remains intact for now.&#8221;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Major Indexes Pull Back from Record Highs U.S. stock markets retreated from their record highs on Friday, July 11, 2025,
