Many traders are eager to see progress and better yet a deal arise amid recently fluctuations in the market. At the same time, businesses are even more eager as operational costs have increased. For example, Snap has fallen over 10% in value, while Australia’s CSL has been negatively impacted amid tariff announcements. With the lack of clear timelines and in ability for companies to adapt to changing trade landscapes uncertainty will weigh on the S&P and likely reverse course should matters results not come to light in the near term.
