US President Donald Trump’s “liberation day” tariffs have rattled global markets. Since the pronouncement, most global indices have been down by over 10%. The scope and magnitude of the tariffs are more severe than we, and the market, expected. These are emotional times for investors, but for those with a long-term perspective, we believe short-term market volatility is a distraction that is better off ignored.
While the market could be in for a bumpy ride over the next few months, patience, a well-thought-out strategy, and the ability to look through market turbulence are key to unlocking performance during such unusual times. This quarter, we cover the economic implications of the announced tariffs and how this shapes our asset allocation decisions. We also provide an outlook for the key sectors of the Australian market and where we see the best tactical opportunities.
