Clothing major Levi Strauss &amp; Co (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/LEVI#NYSE">LEVI</a>) shareholders <a target="_blank" href="https://www.sec.gov/ix?doc=/Archives/edgar/data/0000094845/000009484525000026/levi-20250423.htm" rel="noreferrer noopener">rejected a proposal to halt</a> the company's diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) initiatives, according to a regulatory filing released Monday.
About 2.7 billion votes were cast to reject the proposal to dismantle the DEI program, compared to 5.67 million votes in favor.
The vote occurred against the backdrop of President Donald Trump's broader <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/25/01/43214683/target-ends-dei-program-following-trumps-call-to-eliminate-illegal-preferences-expert-calls-it-brand-suicide-for-retail-giant-with-diverse-customer-base" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">effort to roll back DEI policies </a>in both government and the private sector following a January executive order.
Following the order, major corporations, including Walmart Inc.

Meanwhile, Costco Wholesale Corp. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/COST#NASDAQ">COST</a>) is holding firm on its DEI policies, as shareholders overwhelmingly backed the company's current DEI policies in a recent vote.
This decision came despite a proxy proposal from the National Center for Public Policy Research, which had urged the company to conduct an audit to evaluate potential legal, reputational, and financial risks.
Levi reported <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/earnings/25/04/44674732/levi-strauss-shares-rise-after-mixed-q1-results-details" rel="noreferrer noopener">first-quarter adjusted earnings</a> of 38 cents per share, which beat the 28 cent analyst consensus estimate and said that the company does not reflect any impact from the recently announced tariffs.
Price Action: LEVI shares traded higher by 0.13% to $15.90 at last check on Tuesday.

To gain an edge, this is what you need to know today.
<h4 class="wp-block-heading">Tariff Pull Forward</h4>
Please <a href="https://thearorareport.com/stock-market-chart-analysis-tariff-pull-forward-spy-mc-04292025">click here</a> for an enlarged chart of SPDR S&amp;P 500 ETF Trust (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SPY#NYSE">SPY</a>) which represents the benchmark stock market index S&amp;P 500 (SPX).
Note the following:
<ul>
<li>The chart shows that the stock market previously touched the low band of support zone 3 on April 7.</li>
<li>The chart shows that the stock market quickly rebounded to the low band of resistance zone 2.</li>
<li>The chart shows that after the first quick rebound, the stock market pulled back to support zone 2 and then started rallying again.</li>
<li>The chart shows that the stock market is now knocking at the door of the low band of resistance zone 2 again.</li>
<li>Stock market bulls are predicting that the market will move rapidly towards resistance zone 3.&nbsp; Stock market bears are predicting the market is likely to pull back to support zone 2.</li>
<li>In our analysis, both of the foregoing scenarios have a fair probability.  Further, the near term direction will be determined by earnings.  In the longer term, the stock market is ignoring tariff pull forward.</li>
<li>In our analysis, there has been significant positive economic activity from tariff pull forward.  
<ul>
<li>Consumers bought ahead of tariffs going into effect.&nbsp;&nbsp;</li>
<li>Businesses bought ahead of tariffs to build inventories.&nbsp;&nbsp;</li>
<li>Importers imported to build inventories ahead of tariffs.&nbsp;&nbsp;</li>
</ul>
</li>
<li>We previously shared with you that there is over 70% probability that earnings this season will be better than consensus.&nbsp; One of the reasons is tariff pull forward.&nbsp;</li>
<li>Here is the question prudent investors need to ask: What will be the impact of tariff pull forward on economic activity now and earnings for the next earnings season?&nbsp;</li>
<li>The answer to the foregoing question is that the impact of the tariff pull forward will be negative</li>
<li>Sentiment remains positive due to expectations that President Trump will announce several trade deals soon.</li>
<li>The stock market is very optimistic about a deal with China.  However, in our analysis, investors should differentiate between a potential positive headline and a substantive deal.  Even if there is a positive headline, the probability of a substantive deal is nowhere near what the stock market expects.  
<ul>
<li>Indications coming out of China are that negotiations will not be easy.&nbsp;</li>
<li>President Xi of China is attempting to turn several countries against the U.S.&nbsp;</li>
</ul>
</li>
<li>Treasury Secretary Bessent is focused on lowering the 10 year Treasury yield.&nbsp; This focus is understandable considering the heavy borrowing needs of the U.S.&nbsp; The Treasury has just announced that details of borrowings:
<ul>
<li>Q1 $369B</li>
<li>Q2 $514B</li>
<li>Q3 $554B</li>
</ul>

<li>JOLTS job openings and consumer confidence was released at 10am ET.</li>

<h4 class="wp-block-heading">Canada</h4>
Not long ago when Justin Trudeau announced his resignation, liberals were not in a strong position.&nbsp; In a dramatic turn around, liberals led by Mark Carney won the election.&nbsp; Liberals were helped by the anti-Trump sentiment. Conservative leader Pierre Poilievre lost his own seat.
From investors' perspective, there are two key points:
<ul>
<li>Carney's victory is narrow.</li>
<li>Under Carney, Canada is expected to be the leader of the anti-Trump mantle in the West.&nbsp;&nbsp;</li>
</ul>

<h4 class="wp-block-heading">Arora Protection Band And What To Do Now</h4>
It is important for investors to look ahead and not in the rearview mirror.  Our proprietary Protection Band puts all of the data, all of the indicators, all of the news, all of the crosscurrents, all of the models, and all of the analysis in an analytical framework that is easily actionable by investors.
Consider continuing to hold good, very long term, existing positions. Based on individual risk preference, consider a protection band consisting of cash or Treasury bills or short-term tactical trades as well as short to medium term hedges and short term hedges. This is a good way to protect yourself and participate in the upside at the same time.
You can determine your protection bands by adding cash to hedges.&nbsp; The high band of the protection is appropriate for those who are older or conservative. The low band of the protection is appropriate for those who are younger or aggressive.&nbsp; If you do not hedge, the total cash level should be more than stated above but significantly less than cash plus hedges.
A protection band of 0% would be very bullish and would indicate full investment with 0% in cash.&nbsp; A protection band of 100% would be very bearish and would indicate a need for aggressive protection with cash and hedges or aggressive short selling.
It is worth reminding that you cannot take advantage of new upcoming opportunities if you are not holding enough cash.&nbsp; When adjusting hedge levels, consider adjusting partial stop quantities for stock positions (non ETF); consider using wider stops on remaining quantities and also allowing more room for high beta stocks.&nbsp; High beta stocks are the ones that move more than the market.
<h4 class="wp-block-heading">Traditional 60/40 Portfolio</h4>
Probability based risk reward adjusted for inflation does not favor long duration strategic bond allocation at this time.
Those who want to stick to traditional 60% allocation to stocks and 40% to bonds may consider focusing on only high quality bonds and bonds of five year duration or less.&nbsp; Those willing to bring sophistication to their investing may consider using bond ETFs as tactical positions and not strategic positions at this time.
