Markets rallied again after a slew of executive orders were announced.


🚢 Softer tariffs. #Tariffs announced for 25% on Canada and Mexico and 10% on China starting in February. However, with the #Tariffs not effective immediately, markets rallied expecting harsher terms and hoping there’s time for negotiations before anything is official.

🤖 AI initiatives. Stargate was announced to fund #AI infrastructure with an initial $100B investment and over $500B over the next four years. We saw #AI names lift on the announcement as the infrastructure spend train continues to roll.

️🌨️ Lots of executive orders. It was a flurry of executive orders. Outside of tariffs and AI, we’re also monitoring energy with oil pricing falling and immigration’s potential impact on #LaborMarkets and #Inflation. The S&P 500 rallied again up 1.7% for the week.
