Stock Market Commentary<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

This week brought a return of market calm across the stock market following a sharp but brief trade-induced shock<\/a>. The episode began with President Trump\u2019s threat of significant tariffs on Europe (and foreign-made iPhones), which rattled the market. However, that fear evaporated after Trump walked back his threats with a 90-day pause (is 90 a favorite number?), sparking a major rebound perfectly off support to start the trading week (shortened by the Memorial Day holiday). However, buyers lacked momentum to push higher, and sellers could not gain traction. The resulting drift in prices came to a head on Friday after renewed trade concerns over Nvidia chips over-shadowed good inflation news. Yet, the buyers and bulls won the day with a firm bounce off intraday lows. The dust settled on a market sitting within established ranges and a return to overall market calm.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I thought the market had been in a good place to ignore trade noise again, as it had for a while before last week\u2019s temporary panic. The quick return to calm has brought with it the viral Wall Street meme called the \u201cTACO trade<\/a>\u201d – suggesting a new level of indifference to tariff drama.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
