Tensions Ease Ahead Of Critical Week
US equity markets resumed their recovery this week from the "liberation day" plunge after the White House negotiated trade deals with several nations and indicated plans to ease China tariffs. Trimming its drawdown to around 10% from its mid-February highs, the S&P 500 rallied 4.6% this week - erasing an early-week dip with four-straight days of gains. After posting significant outperformance last week, real estate equities were among the laggards this week despite a solid start to REIT earnings season and a much-needed retreat in benchmark rates.

6 Dividend Growth Stocks I'm Buying As The Trade War Hits Stalemate
Tariffs, especially on China, remain a significant risk, causing market uncertainty, potential shortages, inflation, and economic strain, despite the potential for reductions. Recession odds for 2025 have dipped but remain elevated due to lingering trade policy uncertainty and reduced business investment. I remain fully invested and am currently buying REITs, a blue-chip asset manager, market-leading utility, and high-quality tech stock, anticipating rate cuts and eventual market recovery.
