What a day...what a day yesterday was... Here's a quick breakdown PLUS an informative whitepaper from Phil Blancato, Osaic’s Chief Market Strategist, attached below. This paper provides research, analysis, and commentary about world events, the markets, and the economy. In April 2025, the U.S. launched a bold new tariff plan—dubbed “Liberation Day”—introducing a 10% baseline tariff on all imports and up to 50% reciprocal tariffs on countries like China, Japan, and the EU. The move has triggered short-term market volatility and raised concerns about inflation, yet U.S. economic fundamentals remain strong. This post explores the impact of the new trade policy, how markets are responding, and why portfolio diversification is more important than ever for long-term investors. As always, we’re here to answer any questions you may have! Please don’t hesitate to reach out. | |
