Tesla Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TSLA#NASDAQ">TSLA</a>) is all set to begin sales operations in Saudi Arabia as the Elon Musk-led EV giant looks to expand its global presence.
What happened:  According to a post shared by Tesla influencer Sawyer Merritt on X, Tesla has begun selling its cars in Saudi Arabia. In a post shared in late March, Tesla's official Europe and Middle East handle had released a short video teasing the arrival of the company in Saudi Arabia.

<blockquote class="twitter-tweet" data-width="500" data-dnt="true">NEWS: Tesla has officially begun selling its cars in Saudi Arabia today. The country plans to scale from 100 to 5,000 charging stations by 2030. <a href="https://t.co/1h6a1P8eVy">pic.twitter.com/1h6a1P8eVy</a>

According to Tesla, the launch event is set to take place on April 10, 2025 Riyadh, and will showcase the company's global lineup of vehicles as well as the Cybercab and Tesla's Optimus line of humanoid robots.
However, Tesla could face some challenges as Saudi Arabia has been slow to adopt EVs and faces hurdles, including a weak charging infrastructure.
Why it matters: Saudi Arabia has ambitious plans for EVs as the Public Investment Fund, the Kingdom's Sovereign Wealth Fund, laid out the target of producing 500,000 battery-powered vehicles by the year 2030. The PIF also owns a stake in US-based EV company Lucid Group Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/LCID#NASDAQ">LCID</a>).
Tesla's entry into the Kingdom could indicate a shift in relations between Musk and the PIF, which were at the center of the ‘funding secured' debacle and lawsuit as the billionaire claimed the PIF had ‘backpedaled' on its commitment to invest in his company.

US President Donald Trump is all set to make his first foreign visit for his second term in the coming weeks. Trump had called on the Kingdom to invest over $1 trillion into the U.S. economy in a meeting earlier this year.
Musk's close ties with the Trump administration, as well as his position as the head of the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE), could be key as Tesla aims to bolster its presence in the region.
Price action: Tesla's stock recently experienced a bump in value and is currently trading at $272.20 according to <a href="https://pro.benzinga.com/dashboard">Benzinga Pro data</a>.

Elon Musk's Tesla Starts Selling In Saudi Arabia Amid Declining Sales In Europe: Charging Network, Low Demand Could Be A Concern

Former Vice President Mike Pence shared concerns that President Donald Trump's <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/04/44720006/markets-take-off-as-trump-announces-90-day-tariff-pause-for-non-retaliating-nations-slaps-china-with-125-duty">sweeping tariffs</a> could become a political flashpoint for Republicans in the midterm elections. Pence labelled the policy "a misstep" despite praising other early decisions in Trump's second term.
What Happened: Trump announced a 125% tariff on China and a 10% baseline on other nations, prompting bipartisan alarm. Speaking <a href="https://thehill.com/homenews/administration/5241606-mike-pence-trump-tariffs-concerns/">to</a> The Hill, Pence hailed a <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/analyst-ratings/analyst-color/25/04/44721874/trumps-tariff-pause-saves-market-from-edge-of-the-cliff-dan-ives-says-biggest-wild-card-still-remains">90-day pause </a>on tariffs for allies but warned that if left as it is, the strategies would amount to "the largest peacetime tax hike in American history."

Why It Matters: Pence stressed that tariffs are ultimately paid by American companies and consumers. "The hardship they'd place on <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/global/25/04/44723751/billionaire-investor-bill-ackman-praises-trumps-tariff-pause-thank-you-on-behalf-of-all-americans">working families</a> and businesses large and small" could damage the GOP, he said, despite supporting tough trade action on China.
Pence's group, Advancing American Freedom, released ads warning the tariffs would harm farmers and consumers. While he remains in agreement with Trump on several issues, Pence's stance was crystal clear: "Tariffs are a cost passed on to American consumers."

Former Vice President Mike Pence Calls Trump's Tariff Moves 'Misstep,' Cites Potential Economic Harm To Working Families

Following President Donald Trump&#8216;s global tariffs, a leading tech analyst has predicted that Apple Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AAPL#NASDAQ">AAPL</a>) iPhones could see a <a href="https://in.benzinga.com/analyst-ratings/price-target/25/04/44720209/apple-faces-up-to-90-cost-surge-on-iphones-if-us-tariffs-stick-analyst-looks-at-possible-shift-to-india-price-increase">significant price hike</a> if manufacturing shifts to the U.S.
What Happened: Dan Ives, the global head of technology research at Wedbush Securities, suggests that iPhones manufactured in the U.S. could cost more than three times their current price, reaching around $3,500. This is due to the necessity to recreate the complex production ecosystem that currently exists in Asia.
&#8220;You build that (supply chain) in the U.S. with a fab in West Virginia and New Jersey. They&#8217;ll be $3,500 iPhones,&#8221; Ives told <a href="https://edition.cnn.com/2025/04/09/tech/apple-iphones-cost-tariffs-impact-intl-hnk/index.html">CNN</a> on Wednesday. He also stated that it would cost Apple roughly $30 billion and three years to move just 10% of its supply chain to the U.S.
Since Trump took office, Apple&#8217;s shares have fallen over 10% due to tariff-related concerns impacting its extensive supply chain, which is heavily dependent on China and Taiwan. Approximately 90% of iPhones are assembled in China.

Despite Apple&#8217;s announcement in February to invest<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/tech/25/02/43910982/apple-commits-500-billion-in-us-investment-for-ai-push-boost-us-manufacturing-tech"> $500 billion</a> in the U.S. over the next four years to expand production outside China and avoid Trump&#8217;s tariffs, tech analysts concur that iPhone prices are likely to increase, even if supply chains remain in their current locations.
Why It Matters: In his latest Truth Social post, Trump <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/04/44720006/markets-take-off-as-trump-announces-90-day-tariff-pause-for-non-retaliating-nations-slaps-china-with-125-duty">lashed out at China,</a> accusing the country of displaying &#8220;a lack of respect&#8221; toward the United States. He announced a sharp escalation in trade tensions, unveiling a 125% tariff on Chinese imports effective immediately. "At some point, hopefully in the near future, China will realize that the days of ripping off the U.S.A., and other Countries, is no longer sustainable or acceptable," he said.
Trump praised the more than 75 countries that, according to him, &#8220;have not, at my strong suggestion, retaliated in any way, shape, or form.&#8221; As a gesture of goodwill, he said these nations would receive a temporary 10% reciprocal tariff and a 90-day freeze on any new duties.
Meanwhile, the potential rise in iPhone prices <a href="https://in.benzinga.com/media/25/04/44679666/apple-customers-flock-to-stores-as-tariffs-threaten-to-drive-iphone-prices-up-by-45-report">has triggered a surge</a> of customers flocking to Apple Stores to buy new devices before the hikes take effect.
Apple also reportedly planned to shift more of its <a href="https://in.benzinga.com/25/04/44677880/apple-reportedly-plans-to-move-more-iphone-production-to-india-amid-trump-tariff-fearscould-this-solve-the-300-price-hike-on-550-hardware">iPhone production to India</a> to mitigate the financial impact of Trump&#8217;s escalating tariffs on Chinese goods, potentially offsetting the projected price increase on its device.

Key Democratic lawmakers are demanding investigations into potential insider trading related to President Donald Trump&#8216;s market communications before he announced a 90-day tariff pause that triggered <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/equities/25/04/44726524/us-futures-edge-higher-nikkei-surges-8-as-trumps-90-day-tariff-pause-triggers-historic-wall-street-rally-gold-gains-slightly">Wall Street&#8217;s strongest rally since 2008</a>.

Government

Adam Schiff And Elizabeth Warren Call For Investigation Into Possible Insider Trading By Trump Allies As Markets Surge After 90-Day Tariff Pause: 'It Sure Looks Like Corruption'

Dave Ramsey advocates a two-pronged approach to tackling the nation's $36 trillion debt: cutting excessive government spending and boosting revenue by lowering taxes to stimulate the economy.
What Happened: Responding to a caller&#8217;s question on tackling the national debt on an episode of &#8216;The Ramsey Show,&#8217; Ramsey says, "It is kind of fun to watch them take a machete to the ridiculous spending," Ramsey observes that even though running a government of any size is &#8220;a different endeavor&#8221; to personal finance, he remarks that "the principle of being debt free still stands." 
Drawing from personal finance's "get an extra job" strategy, he applies it at the federal level. "If you want to get out of debt, one of the things we tell you to do is get an extra job, right?&#8230; Let's increase the income of the United States of America by increasing the revenues produced by the tax system by, oddly enough, lowering the tax rates."

Trump Administration Reportedly Backs Down On H20 Chip China Export Restrictions</a>
Ramsey refers to the <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/general/education/19/06/13936762/supply-side-economist-arthur-laffer-to-receive-the-presidential-medal-of-freedom">Laffer curve</a>, saying, "Art Laffer has&#8230; the theory of.. as to a certain degree as you lower taxes&#8230; the economy heats up&#8230; because the people that are making money are putting money back into their businesses.. they make yet more money and they pay yet more taxes even though the rate is lower." He also critiques <a href="https://in.benzinga.com/25/02/43839198/reduce-deficits-and-debt-full-stop-says-this-economist-as-trump-mulls-doge-dividend-by-giving-away-20-of-its-savings-to-public">Keynesian economics</a>, remarking, "I'm not a believer&#8230; I'm a free market guy."
On the spending side, Ramsey supports Elon Musk-led <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/topic/department-of-government-efficiency">DOGE&#8217;s</a> aggressive cost-cutting measures: "Cut the snot out of the expenses. So if you could ever get it right side up&#8230; then could you start to pay off the debt? Absolutely, you could."
He also talks about the detrimental impact of government borrowing: "When the government runs debt it sucks the bone marrow out of the economy." Yet he remains optimistic that halting this practice would ignite growth: "The thing could really heat up and the revenues could go through the roof."
Ultimately, Ramsey likens this approach to the radical shift individuals undergo when they decide to eliminate their own debt. "You're going to go do radical stuff to get your life back and get out of debt."

Warren Buffett, legendary stock picker and one of the world&#8217;s wealthiest individuals, has refused to include Bitcoin (CRYPTO: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/btc/usd">BTC</a>) in his portfolio, with an aversion so strong that even shorting the asset is a strict no-no.
Interestingly, the &#8220;Oracle of Omaha,&#8221; like a few other detractors, does not view the underlying blockchain technology with the same disdain.
What happened: During an interview with CNBC in February 2019, Buffett dissed Bitcoin, deeming it a "delusion" and an asset that lacks unique value.
Notably, amid the Bitcoin bashing, the Berkshire Hathaway CEO referred to blockchain as &#8220;important.&#8221;
Buffett went on to say that people &#8220;smarter&#8221; than him explained to him that blockchain does not depend on Bitcoin. He cited the example of a <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/cryptocurrency/20/10/18086908/jpmorgan-says-its-cryptocurrency-jpm-coin-is-now-live">dollar-backed stablecoin</a>, JPM Coin, launched by JPMorgan Chase, potentially implying that blockchains could be used to create non-speculative and valuable assets.

This softer stance was similar to that of JP Morgan CEO Jamie Dimon, who, while holding a negative view about Bitcoin, has time and again <a href="https://in.benzinga.com/markets/cryptocurrency/25/01/42940832/jamie-dimon-says-hes-not-against-blockchains-but-trades-guns-on-bitcoin-again-it-has-no-intrinsic-value-i-just-dont-feel-great-about">recognized the importance of blockchain technology</a>.
It&#8217;s worth noting that since this interview, Buffett hasn&#8217;t said much about blockchains, so a thorough understanding of his views is still needed.

Why It Matters: Buffett earned notoriety in cryptocurrency circles when he described Bitcoin as <a href="https://in.benzinga.com/markets/cryptocurrency/24/10/41319774/if-you-invested-1-000-in-bitcoin-when-warren-buffett-called-it-rat-poison-squared-heres-ho">&#8220;probably rat poison squared&#8221;</a> during an interview in 2018.
Months before, at Berkshire Hathaway&#8217;s <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/general/24/03/37513063/warren-buffett-says-he-wouldnt-pay-25-for-all-the-bitcoin-in-the-world-he-considers-crypto-rat-poiso">annual shareholder meeting</a> in 2018, he predicted cryptocurrency would have a &#8220;bad ending&#8221; and said that his company wouldn't even short them.
"If I could buy a five-year put on every one of the cryptocurrencies, I'd be glad to do it, but I would never short a dime's worth."
Price Action:  At the time of writing, Bitcoin was exchanging hands at $81,880.34, up 6.29% in the last 24 hours, according to <a href="https://pro.benzinga.com/dashboard?_gl=1&#x2A;380nj0&#x2A;_ga&#x2A;MTEyOTAyOTcxMy4xNzEzMzY0NTYy&#x2A;_ga_V7ZK73W7N0&#x2A;MTcxNDk4MzIzMi42LjEuMTcxNDk4OTE0Ni4wLjAuMA..">data from Benzinga Pro</a>.

Morgan Stanley Gears Up For Q1 Print; Here Are The Recent Forecast Changes From Wall Street's Most Accurate Analysts

The CNN Money Fear and Greed index showed easing in the overall fear level, while the index remained in the &#8220;Extreme Fear&#8221; zone on Wednesday.
U.S. stocks settled sharply higher on Wednesday, with the Dow Jones index jumping more than 2,900 points during the session.
The S&amp;P 500 also jumped 9.52% to record its biggest single-day surge since 2008 as investors cheered a surprise announcement from President Donald Trump: a 90-day pause on tariffs for countries that have not retaliated against U.S. trade measures.
However, Trump&#8217;s latest Truth Social post slammed China for showing "a lack of respect" and declared an immediate 125% tariff hike on Chinese goods.
Apple Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AAPL#NASDAQ">AAPL</a>) shares jumped over 15%, while Nvidia Corp. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NVDA#NASDAQ">NVDA</a>) surged around 19% on Wednesday. Shares of Tesla Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TSLA#NASDAQ">TSLA</a>) also jumped more than 22% during the session.
On the economic data front, U.S. mortgage application volumes climbed by 20% from the previous week during the first week of April.
All sectors on the S&amp;P 500 closed on a positive note, with consumer discretionary, information technology, and communication services stocks recording the biggest gains on Wednesday.
The Dow Jones closed higher by around 2,963 points to 40,608.45 on Wednesday. The S&amp;P 500 jumped 9.52% to 5,456.90, while the Nasdaq Composite jumped 12.16% to 17,124.97 during Wednesday's session.
Investors are awaiting earnings results from CarMax Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/KMX#NYSE">KMX</a>), The Lovesac Co. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/LOVE#NASDAQ">LOVE</a>), and Northern Technologies International Corp. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NTIC#NASDAQ">NTIC</a>) today.
What is CNN Business Fear &amp; Greed Index?
At a current reading of 16.5, the index remained in the &#8220;Extreme Fear&#8221; zone on Wednesday, versus a prior reading of 3.4.
The Fear &amp; Greed Index is a measure of the current market sentiment. It is based on the premise that higher fear exerts pressure on stock prices, while higher greed has the opposite effect. The index is calculated based on seven equal-weighted indicators. The index ranges from 0 to 100, where 0 represents maximum fear and 100 signals maximum greediness.

Hedge fund manager Ray Dalio praised President Donald Trump&#8216;s <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/analyst-ratings/analyst-color/25/04/44721874/trumps-tariff-pause-saves-market-from-edge-of-the-cliff-dan-ives-says-biggest-wild-card-still-remains">decision to press pause</a> on the tariffs imposed on several of the country&#8217;s trading partners on Wednesday, with the exception of China.
What Happened: In a post on X, the billionaire founder of Bridgewater Associates said &#8220;Trump&#8217;s decision to step back from a worse way and negotiate how to deal with these imbalances is a much better way,&#8221; before urging the President to conclude the trade deal with China and focus on reducing the fiscal deficit to 3% of GDP.
Dalio suggested a deal with China that involves &#8220;appreciating the RMB [Renminbi] against the [U.S.] dollar&#8221; which can be achieved by the &#8220;Chinese selling dollar assets while also easing their fiscal and monetary policies to stimulate their demand.&#8221;
<figure class="wp-block-embed aligncenter is-type-rich is-provider-twitter wp-block-embed-twitter"> 
<div class="wp-block-embed__wrapper">
<blockquote class="twitter-tweet" data-width="500" data-dnt="true">This is a great time for all involved to reconsider their approaches!  There are better and worse ways of handling our problems with unsustainable debt and imbalances, and President Trump&#39;s decision to step back from a worse way and negotiate how to deal with these imbalances is…
&mdash; Ray Dalio (@RayDalio) <a href="https://twitter.com/RayDalio/status/1910166431053815819?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">April 10, 2025</a></blockquote>
<script async src="https://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" charset="utf-8"></script></div>
</figure>
A renowned macro expert, Dalio then suggested Trump focus on &#8220;cutting the [fiscal] deficit to 3pct of GDP&#8221; before linking to a chapter of his new book &#8216;How Countries Go Broke&#8217; where he describes how this is to be done without any disruption.

Why It Matters: According to Reuters, policymakers in the country were planning to further undervalue the Yuan in December to reduce the impact of tariffs. Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent addressed this issue early this week, saying, &#8220;If China tries to devalue their way out of this, then that&#8217;s a tax on the rest of the world.&#8221;
Even The Economist&#8217;s Big Mac Index, a measure of purchasing power parity between different currencies, suggests that the Yuan is <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/startups/25/02/43580928/40-cheaper-in-china-what-the-big-mac-index-says-about-trumps-tariff-plans">substantially undervalued</a> against the U.S. dollar, giving credence to Dalio&#8217;s suggestions.

Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-N.Y.) has called for a disclosure by Congress members after observing that the Nasdaq call volume spiked minutes before President Donald Trump&#8216;s announcement on a tariff pause.
What Happened: Trump announced a pause in the tariffs in a Truth Social post around 1:18 p.m. ET on Wednesday.
However, the data shared by Spencer Hakimian, the founder of Tolou Capital Management and Unusual Whales, a popular social media commentator and online suite for data feeds and tools on options flows, showed that call volumes for various contracts started spiking around 1:00 p.m. ET.
AOC, in an X post, said that &#8220;Any member of Congress who purchased stocks in the last 48 hours should probably disclose that now.&#8221;
While the disclosure deadline is May 15, AOC added that &#8220;We're about to learn a few things. It's time to ban insider trading in Congress.&#8221;

On the other hand, Unusual Whales highlighted that SPDR S&amp;P 500 ETF Trust (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SPY#NYSE">SPY</a>) 509 calls expiring on Wednesday, April 9, surged 2100% in one hour.
Meanwhile, Invesco QQQ Trust, Series 1 (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/QQQ#NASDAQ">QQQ</a>) 406 calls expiring on April 17, also surged. &#8220;Insane, someone knew,&#8221; said Unusual Whales in its X post.

SPY, QQQ Call Volumes Spiked Minutes Before Tariff Pause Announcement: Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez Demands Disclosure From Congress Members

U.S.-China tensions are impacting university campuses, with Chinese students <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/global/25/04/44727311/china-warns-citizens-over-us-travel-after-trumps-tariff-hike-triggers-retaliation-cites-deteriorating-relations-and-rising-security-risks">caught in the crossfire</a>. Visa revocations and surveillance of political opinions are triggering confusion and fear among those pursuing degrees across institutions in America.
What Happened: Several Chinese students reported their U.S. visas were abruptly revoked, according to <a href="https://www.wsj.com/politics/policy/china-us-student-visas-travel-advisories-6f194b3e?mod=hp_lead_pos10">a</a> Wall Street Journal report.
"We pay too much money to experience this kind of nightmare," said one engineering student. Another expressed concern over being targeted for past social media activity: "I had never thought I would be scared about what I posted here in America."

Why It Matters: Chinese students are a major source of finances for U.S. universities, contributing $14.3 billion in 2023.
Apart from loss of revenue, experts warn that the removal of Chinese talent could affect America's innovation capacity. "Cutting off that source of innovation and strength could hurt our economic vitality as a country," said Julia Gelatt of the Migration Policy Institute to WSJ.
The Chinese government has requested students to rethink their decision to study in the U.S., while Congress increases scrutiny of Chinese nationals in STEM programs. As tensions keep rising, the future of academic exchange between China and the U.S. remains increasingly fraught with tension.

President Donald Trump indicated a more lenient approach to his trade agenda on Wednesday, leading to a significant rally in the stock market, but portfolio managers and analysts aren&#8217;t fully convinced.
What Happened: Investors had been anxious about the escalating trade war and a worrying&nbsp;selloff in the U.S. government&nbsp;bond market. However, Trump&#8217;s post on Truth Social, which announced a 90-day pause and a reduced Reciprocal Tariff of 10%, seemed to ease these fears. This marked a significant departure from his &#8220;Liberation Day&#8221; tariff-announcement ceremony on April 2, where he had promised much higher tariffs. 
Despite criticizing China for its &#8220;lack of respect&#8221; towards global markets and announcing an immediate increase in tariffs on Chinese imports to 125%, Trump signaled a more conciliatory approach towards other nations. This shift, combined with coordinated statements from Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent and other administration officials, helped reassure investors who were concerned that the tariffs could spark a global trade war and recession.
Trump also indicated that some U.S. companies might&nbsp;be exempted from his tariffs, stating, &#8220;We&#8217;ll take a look at that.&#8221;
The President wrote, "THIS IS A GREAT TIME TO BUY!!!&nbsp; 
<figure class="wp-block-image size-full"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" width="608" height="143" src="https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/04/10025709/image-55.png" alt="" class="wp-image-865167" srcset="https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/04/10025709/image-55.png 608w,https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/04/10025709/image-55-300x71.png 300w" sizes="(max-width: 608px) 100vw, 608px" /></figure>
The market responded positively to this news, with the &#8220;Magnificent Seven&#8221; tech stocks, which had suffered during the tariff selloff, witnessing significant gains. Tesla stock (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TSLA#NASDAQ">TSLA</a>) soared nearly 23% and led the pack while Nvidia&#8216;s (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NVDA#NASDAQ">NVDA</a>) shares rallied close to 19%. Apple Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AAPL#NASDAQ">AAPL</a>) climbed over 15% while Meta Platforms (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/META#NASDAQ">META</a>) rose nearly 15%. Amazon (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AMZN#NASDAQ">AMZN</a>) surged about 12% and Microsoft (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/MSFT#NASDAQ">MSFT</a>) gained more than 10%. Alphabet Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GOOG#NASDAQ">GOOG</a>) (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GOOGL#NASDAQ">GOOGL</a>) climbed nearly 10%.

Why It Matters: While the market&#8217;s immediate response was positive, experts caution that this doesn&#8217;t necessarily mean smooth sailing ahead. Christopher Smart, managing partner of Arbroath Group, warned that there is still a &#8220;bumpy road ahead with a lot of uncertainty around tariffs,&#8221; <a href="https://www.wsj.com/finance/stocks/trump-tariff-pause-historic-stock-rally-4eaa35f7?mod=WSJ_home_supertoppermiddle_pos_4">reported</a> The Wall Street Journal.
Jake Schurmeier, portfolio manager at Harbor Capital, echoed this sentiment, stating that even though the pause is encouraging, it doesn&#8217;t resolve the lingering uncertainty. &#8220;We likely go higher for a few days, but I think permanent damage has been done,&#8221; Schurmeier <a href="https://fortune.com/2025/04/09/trump-tariff-pause-permanent-damage-stock-market-outlook/">told</a> Fortune.
Meanwhile, Mark Hamrick, senior economic analyst at Bankrate, noted that investors are absorbing the &#8220;word of a cease-fire,&#8221; but the outcome will depend on the success of negotiations between the U.S. and other nations. Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent said negotiations between the administration and each country would be "bespoke," but provided few specifics on how the negotiations would unfold or what a successful resolution might entail.
