Investment Currents - Riding the Highs and Lows of the Market

US markets closed the week with sharp declines, led by the technology sector, as data reinforced fears of persistent inflation and low growth. The rebound in underlying prices and rising inflation expectations combined with the escalation of tariffs driven by the Trump administration, generating uncertainty and pressure on the Federal Reserve. Volatility increased and several companies revised down their forecasts, while gold rose as a safe haven against risk.


President Trump announced 25% tariffs on imported light-duty vehicles, including those assembled in Mexico and Canada, beginning April 3. Key components will also be taxed by May 3, with some temporary exemptions for U.S. content. The measure, described as permanent, is intended to boost reindustrialization. In addition, the US will impose tariffs on countries that purchase oil or gas from Venezuela and will announce a "lenient" reciprocal tariff package on April 2.
