"Stay buckled. It's just a question of whether the airbags come out now,"&nbsp; Carlyle Group (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/CG#NASDAQ">CG</a>) chief Harvey Schwartz told <a href="https://www.bloomberg.com/news/videos/2025-04-17/bloomberg-open-interest-04-17-2025-video">Bloomberg</a> in an interview on April 17. While tariffs have turned&nbsp; jetliners around mid-air and slowed parcel traffic, Schwartz insists the real hazard is the uncertainty most observers cannot see.
His warning landed as the U.S. and China traded blows that lifted some levies to 145% and stretched supply chains well beyond breaking points for some manufacturers.

The trade scuffle's first casualty was aviation. Reuters reported that a<a href="https://www.reuters.com/business/aerospace-defense/boeing-jet-returns-us-china-victim-trumps-tariff-war-2025-04-20/"> $55 million Boeing 737 MAX</a> (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/BA#NYSE">BA</a>) painted for Xiamen Airlines left Renton, Washington, on April 18 but returned to Seattle the next evening after a 125% duty made the deal financially unviable for the Chinese carrier.
On April 20, <a href="https://www.dhl.com/discover/en-sg/news/important-announcement-shipping-to-us">DHL said</a> it would halt business-to-consumer shipments over $800 to the U.S. due to new customs rules, effective April 21. Delays hit lower-value parcels too. After discussions with U.S. authorities,<a href="https://www.dhl.com/us-en/home/important-information/2025/shipments-to-the-united-states-with-a-customs-value-exceeding-usd-800.html"> DHL resumed shipments </a>soon after, following adjustments that eased processing of higher-value entries.
Policymakers see the stress, too. On April 22, the <a href="https://mediacenter.imf.org/news/imf-world-economic-outlook-presser/s/33be8aaf-2578-4d8f-a8fd-ae7f5516ad3f">International Monetary Fund</a> released its updated World Economic Outlook, lowering its 2025 global growth forecast to 2.8%—a 0.5 percentage point decrease from January.

IMF Chief Economist Pierre-Olivier Gourinchas <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uXT-vsT1qxo">said</a> global trade growth could be "more than halved" to 1.7% in 2025 if tariffs persist. He also said the U.S. growth forecast was trimmed to 1.8%, citing heightened uncertainty.
History shows why the C-suite are skittish. The tariff volley that began in 2018 lopped roughly <a href="https://ers.usda.gov/sites/default/files/_laserfiche/publications/102980/ERR-304.pdf?v=13480#:~:text=From%20mid%2D2018%20to%20the,occurring%20for%20exports%20to%20China.">$1.7 billion </a>off U.S. quarterly farm exports within months—a reminder of how friction can slice revenue.&nbsp;
The S&amp;P 500 experienced significant intraday volatility on April 8. The index surged by 4.1% in early trading, only to reverse course and decline by 3% later in the day, closing down 1.6%.

In a separate <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PC5_6RHwc-U">Bloomberg</a> interview, Schwartz emphasized that while a recession is &#8220;certainly on the table,&#8221; it&#8217;s premature to make a definitive judgment. He highlighted that the primary concern isn&#8217;t just the tariffs themselves but the pervasive uncertainty they introduce, which stalls decision-making and chills economic activity.&nbsp;
Schwartz said that CEOs are shifting from growth strategies to contingency planning amid the volatility.&nbsp;
He stressed the importance of the U.S. and China finding a cooperative equilibrium to stabilize global trade, warning that prolonged tensions could have far-reaching implications beyond immediate market disruptions.

Carlyle CEO Harvey Schwartz Says 'Stay Buckled' Amid Market Turmoil – 'It's Just A Question Of Whether The Airbags Come Out

On Wednesday, President Donald J. Trump inked a deal with the Qatar government, aiming to create an economic exchange valued at least $1.2 trillion, the White House said in a press release.
Apart from this, President Trump disclosed economic agreements between the United States <a target="_blank" href="https://www.whitehouse.gov/fact-sheets/2025/05/fact-sheet-president-donald-j-trump-secures-historic-1-2-trillion-economic-commitment-in-qatar/" rel="noreferrer noopener">and</a> Qatar totaling over $243.5 billion, which included a significant sale of Boeing Company (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/BA#NYSE">BA</a>) aircraft and GE Aerospace (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GE#NYSE">GE</a>) engines to Qatar Airways for $96 billion.&nbsp;&nbsp;
In particular, Qatar Airways and Boeing disclosed an agreement for the airline to purchase <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/pressreleases/25/05/n45418445/boeing-and-qatar-airways-announce-historic-order-for-up-to-210-widebody-airplanes" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">up to 210 widebody aircraft</a>.
This deal sets new records as Boeing&#8217;s largest-ever widebody order and includes the most significant order for 787 Dreamliners and Qatar Airways&#8217; single largest aircraft order to date.

Additionally, GE Aerospace and Qatar Airways announced a substantial expansion <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/pressreleases/25/05/n45422353/ge-aerospace-and-qatar-airways-strengthen-partnership-with-agreement-for-400-ge9x-and-genx-engines" rel="noreferrer noopener">of their long-term collaboration</a>.
Qatar Airways has committed to over 400 engines, including 60 GE9X and 260 GEnx engines, along with additional options and spare units.
This represents the largest widebody engine purchase in GE Aerospace&#8217;s history, intended to power Qatar Airways&#8217; next-generation Boeing 777-9 and Boeing 787 aircraft.
These new agreements reinforce GE Aerospace&#8217;s dedication to Qatar&#8217;s growing aviation sector and build upon a prior order for 188 GE9X engines, bringing the total commitment to 248 of these engines.
Moreover, Parsons Corp. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/PSN#NYSE">PSN</a>) won 30 significant projects with a total potential value of up to $97 billion.
Major Defense Deals: RTX Corporation&#8217;s (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/RTX#NYSE">RTX</a>) Raytheon secured a $1 billion U.S.-Qatar deal for counter-drone capabilities, making Qatar the first international buyer of Raytheon&#8217;s FS-LIDS.
Also, General Atomics penned an agreement of around $2 billion for Qatar&#8217;s acquisition of the MQ-9B remotely piloted aircraft system.
Apart from this, the U.S. and Qatar inked a statement of intent to further enhance their security partnership, with potential investments exceeding $38 billion, including support for shared responsibilities at Al Udeid Air Base and future defense capabilities.
All the abovementioned deals are expected to generate billions in investments to bolster American manufacturing, fulfilling the commitment to revitalize domestic production and foster economic growth, the White House said in the press release.

Insights From Analysts:
According to Scott Wren, the senior global market strategist at Wells Fargo, despite having a bit of a surprise in the outcome in terms of the U.S.-China trade talks, &#8220;The bottom line is that many uncertainties remain.&#8221;
&#8220;The U.S. is in the early stages of trade negotiations. Given that, our guidance is to continue to lean toward higher-quality large- and mid-cap U.S. equities. In fixed income, we favor exposure to investment-grade corporates and essential-service municipal bonds in the three-to-seven-year maturity range,&#8221; he said.
He highlighted that the market bounce back hinged on a variety of factors, including better-than-expected earnings and, particularly, guidance during the first-quarter reporting season as well as expectations that some trade deals would be announced (i.e., last week's U.K. deal).
It also has helped that much of the reported data covering April has so far continued to show U.S. economic resilience, he explained.
Talking about the U.S.-China deal, he said, &#8220;Of course, as always, the devil is in the details, and a deal has not officially been inked. A lot can happen between now and then.&#8221;
Meanwhile, the analysts at BlackRock said that &#8220;We eye opportunities from mega forces,&#8221; adding that &#8220;We still see tariffs causing further contractions in quarterly activity but the cumulative impact may be more limited.&#8221;
&#8220;We still see supply disruptions upping inflation and hitting growth, but also a path to avoiding a U.S. contraction over 2025 as a whole. Mega forces, greater fiscal spending, and higher interest rates are driving select opportunities,&#8221; the note added.

As markets cheer Qatar&#8217;s massive $200 billion jet deal with Boeing Co. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/BA#NYSE">BA</a>), economist Peter Schiff has a warning that has little to do with planes, and a lot more to do with America&#8217;s structural vulnerabilities.
What Happened: On Wednesday, Schiff highlighted the potential financial fallout of Boeing&#8217;s mega deal with Qatar, which involves acquiring 160 jets for its state-owned carrier, Qatar Airways. 
While acknowledging that this was &#8220;great for Boeing,&#8221; which hit a one-year high following the news, Schiff cautions that the transaction could come with a hidden cost for the U.S. economy.

He says that to help finance this purchase, &#8220;Qatar will likely sell a lot of Treasuries and other U.S. assets,&#8221; further straining the U.S. bond market that is already under pressure.
Schiff says that this capital reallocation might contribute to &#8220;pushing up inflation and interest rates in the U.S.,&#8221; which comes at a time when the Federal Reserve is already grappling with persistent inflationary pressures amid a ballooning Federal trade deficit.

<blockquote class="twitter-tweet" data-width="500" data-dnt="true">Qatar will spend over $200 billion to buy 160 jets from Boeing for its government-owned airline.

Why It Matters: The deal, which is one of the largest jet purchases ever made, comes at a time of growing concerns regarding <a href="https://benzinga.com/markets/25/03/44267663/ray-dalio-warns-us-debt-crisis-could-trigger-shocking-developments-calls-to-reduce-deficit-at-3-of-gdp">America&#8217;s debt sustainability</a>. 
Early this week, economist Stephanie Pomboy <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/05/45369770/whos-going-to-buy-2-trillion-worth-of-paper-macro-expert-calls-wall-street-rally-a-headline-sugar-rush-as-treasury-yield-spike-signals-bigger-trouble">raised similar concerns</a>, asking, &#8220;Who&#8217;s going to buy $2 trillion worth of paper?&#8221; with major buyers such as China pulling back.
As U.S. 30-Year Treasury yields approached 5%, analyst Gordon Johnson warned of a <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/05/45399783/gordon-johnson-warns-of-potential-liberation-day-20-as-30-year-treasury-yields-approach-5-amid-dollar-weakness">potential &#8220;Liberation Day 2.0,&#8221;</a> as it risks jeopardizing $8 trillion in U.S. debt that is set to be refinanced in 2025. 
On Tuesday, Schiff too called out <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/bonds/25/05/45396490/peter-schiff-says-trade-truce-aside-the-world-is-losing-confidence-in-dollar-and-in-us-ability-to-put-fiscal-house-in-order">the rising yields</a> and the decline in the U.S. Dollar Index (DXY) despite the trade truce with China early in the week, which he says is because &#8220;the world is losing confidence in the dollar,&#8221; and the country&#8217;s ability to get its fiscal house in order.
&#8220;The consequences of de-dollarization will be profound,&#8221; Schiff said, especially as the U.S. Treasury Department ramps up its borrowing, projecting $514 billion in net debt issues during this quarter, which is 317% over its own forecast of $123 billion, just two months ago.
Fund manager, Michael Kao, however, has a different take on this deal with Qatar, referring to it as &#8220;Petrodollar recycling,&#8221; while adding that the Petrodollar system &#8220;isn&#8217;t going away anytime soon,&#8221; in a post on X. Kao also included a list of multi-billion dollar transactions between U.S. companies and Middle-Eastern states to drive his point.

Peter Schiff Warns Qatar's $200 Billion Boeing Deal Could Spike US Inflation, Interest Rates — Says Treasury Sell-Off May Follow

U.S. tech stocks extended their weekly rally into Wednesday's session, lifted by renewed investor appetite for risk following a breakthrough in early-week U.S.-China trade negotiations. This reignited hopes for a more <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/topic/tariffs">stable global trade outlook. </a>
The Nasdaq 100 rose 0.5% by midday in New York, reaching levels last seen in late February. Heavyweight chipmakers led the rally, as Nvidia Corp. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NVDA#NASDAQ">NVDA</a>) surged 4% and Advanced Micro Devices Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AMD#NASDAQ">AMD</a>) jumped 5%.
Traders welcomed mounting expectations of large-scale investments from Gulf nations into U.S. tech and semiconductor sectors, as President Donald Trump secured new economic agreements with <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/05/45417156/nvidia-amd-stocks-climb-as-trump-plans-to-ease-ai-chip-export-rules">Middle Eastern countries</a>, including Saudi Arabia and Syria.
While the Nasdaq marched higher, the S&amp;P 500 stalled and both the Dow Jones Industrial Average and Russell 2000 slipped slightly, indicating a more selective rally focused on high-growth sectors.
Clean energy and solar stocks outperformed again, building on strong Tuesday gains. Investors cheered a less-severe-than-expected revision to clean energy tax credits in the latest Republican tax proposal.
The commodity space told a different story, with gold prices dropping nearly 2%, breaking below the $3,200 per ounce mark for the first time in over a month. 
The yellow metal is now tracking its worst weekly performance since November 2024, with two trading sessions still left this week.
Investors appear to be rotating out of safe-haven assets, as appetite for equities and riskier plays returns on global trade optimism. 
Rising Treasury yields also weighed on broader market sentiment. The yield on the 2-year Treasury note broke above 4%, hitting its highest level in more than two months. Meanwhile, the 30-year bond yield rose 5 basis points to 4.97%, drawing closer to the psychologically important 5% mark—a level often associated with tightening financial conditions and pressure on long-duration assets.

A $30 million wipeout in just 60 days—no miscalculation, just tariffs. That's the reality a U.S. entrepreneur recently revealed following President <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/startups/24/09/40969537/trump-familys-crypto-venture-revealed-new-buying-rules-who-can-invest-and-what-it-means-for-early-ad">Donald Trump</a>'s imposition of a 145% tariff on Chinese goods.&nbsp;
On April 17, Mark Cuban shared a <a href="https://x.com/mcuban/status/1911097441580892491?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw%7Ctwcamp%5Etweetembed%7Ctwterm%5E1911097441580892491%7Ctwgr%5Ed38d2889f79fbcd59e7beabb58b0d9f525b10b38%7Ctwcon%5Es1_&amp;ref_url=https%3A%2F%2Fen.as.com%2Flatest_news%2Fmark-cubans-post-about-an-entrepreneurs-frustration-with-tariffs-what-this-is-going-to-do-to-our-economy-is-frightening-n%2F">post on X</a>. In it, he amplified concerns voiced by an unnamed entrepreneur about the growing damage many businesses say they're now grappling with under Trump's newly unveiled trade plans. The tariffs, which would impact imports from 185 countries, start at 10%, with China facing the steepest rate.

</ul>
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Businesses Stall, Stock Warnings Grow Louder</h2>
In his post, Cuban quoted the entrepreneur, who said, "$30M in EBITDA wiped out for us in 2 months, a company I spent a decade building decimated in a matter of months. Unbelievable people still don't understand tariffs at this point, and the head in the sand approach to what this is going to do to our economy is frightening. We are in cash preservation mode and have paused all shipments from China at this point."
Trump's trade measures aim to protect American manufacturing by making foreign imports more expensive. But some industries are already responding by freezing operations, cutting costs, and pausing international shipments.
According to <a href="https://www.reuters.com/business/autos-transportation/trumps-tariffs-chinese-parts-cybercab-semi-disrupt-teslas-us-production-plans-2025-04-16/">Reuters</a> on April 15, Tesla (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TSLA#NASDAQ">TSLA</a>)&nbsp; halted imports of components from China critical to the assembly of its Cybercab and Semi models. Boeing (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/BA#NYSE">BA</a>) redirected a 737 MAX jetliner meant for a Chinese airliner back to the U.S., citing prohibitive cost implications triggered by the tariff hike, according to media reports.&nbsp;

Retailers are also feeling the strain. On April 19, Marc Bowker, owner of Alter Ego Comics in Lima, Ohio, told <a href="https://www.businessinsider.com/main-street-trump-trade-war-tariffs-small-businesses-impact-2025-4">Business Insider</a> his supplier costs rose as much as 34%. The increase has forced him to raise prices on imported goods and tighten profit margins to stay afloat. "If you see prices go up at your local small business, it&#8217;s not because we want to,&#8221; he said . "It&#8217;s because we&#8217;re forced to."
Across the board, many small business owners are putting plans on hold according to data from the <a href="https://www.uschamber.com/small-business/small-business-weekly-forecast">U.S. Chamber of Commerce</a>. 12% of small business owners believe it&#8217;s a good time to expand, reflecting a five-point decline from January. Moreover, 19% are planning capital purchases in the next three months, down one point from January.

Cuban encouraged consumers to stock up on essential household goods like soap, toothpaste, and medications, warning that tariffs would eventually drive up shelf prices nationwide.
Meanwhile, industry-wide concern is growing. A survey conducted by <a href="https://www.fictiv.com/ebooks/2025-state-of-manufacturing-report">Fictiv</a> revealed that 77% of manufacturing and supply chain leaders expressed concerns about their ability to manage resources effectively amid trade wars and <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/personal-finance/24/10/41313947/expert-finds-trumps-tax-proposal-drains-money-from-95-of-households-and-funnels-it-to-the-top-5-">tariffs</a>.

'Unbelievable People Still Don't Understand Tariffs' – Mark Cuban Highlights Entrepreneur's $30 Million Loss Under Trump's 145% Tariff

Cruise line stocks are historically among the strongest seasonal performers in the S&amp;P 500 heading into the second half of May, with Royal Caribbean Group (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/RCL#NYSE">RCL</a>), Norwegian Cruise Line Holdings Ltd.

Historical data from Seasonax platforms shows that from May 14 to early June, these three stocks have consistently outperformed over the past decade, with average gains north of 10%. 
Among all S&amp;P 500 constituents, they rank at the very top for late-spring seasonality. Seasonal strength is typically fueled by ramping summer demand, strong forward bookings, and an uptick in consumer travel spending ahead of peak vacation months.
Here are the top five S&amp;P 500 stocks by average return in a three-week period starting from May 14:

<h3 class="wp-block-heading">RCL Sees Strong Summer Bookings</h3>
In a note from late April, Goldman Sachs analyst Lizzie Dove pointed to a strong reversal in booking momentum despite broader macro uncertainty and uneven travel data across the sector.
April bookings at RCL exceeded the same month last year, while close-in bookings remained firm. 
The company also reported stronger-than-usual onboard spending and pre-cruise purchases. Forward bookings for 2026 were tracking in line with 2024 levels but at higher prices—a sign of pricing power in an inflation-sensitive market.
With approximately 86% of the 2025 cruise calendar already booked, Dove's team raised their estimates and lifted the stock's price target from $245 to $260. However, they retained a slightly more cautious tone in 2026, pending more clarity on consumer resilience.
Since hitting tariff-driven lows on April 9, shares of RCL have surged 50% through mid-May —more than twice the gain of the S&amp;P 500. CCL shares matched the performance during the same period. 
<h3 class="wp-block-heading">NCLH Flags Demand Softness Amid Macro Pressures</h3>
In contrast, Norwegian Cruise Line is facing a different set of conditions. 
In early May, Bank of America analyst Andrew Didora highlighted NCLH as the first in the group to show softness in its 12-month forward-booked position.
While this wasn't viewed as unexpected—given the macro backdrop, consumer sentiment, and fare discounts introduced under the Oceania brand—it raised questions about forward pricing discipline across the cruise industry. Didora added that weakening demand isn't isolated to NCLH, and other operators may be seeing similar dynamics.
