U.S. equity markets jumped at this week’s open after Trump announced a tariff exemption on select electronics. This rally emphasizes the fickleness of Trump’s governance style - reflecting the market volatility. By contrast, last week, all U.S. assets were on sale, which today's guest points out, raises the possibility that foreign investors are retreating their capital.
