| DAILY ISSUE In Today’s Masters in Trading: Live  | What’s Moving the Markets This Week? | -
Liberation Day Is Finally Here: Today’s Rose Garden press conference will mark the next move in President Trump’s tariff tit-for-tat, with a potential 20% universal tariff on imports – among other proposals – still on the table. We’ll know more after 4 PM today – and in tomorrow’s Masters in Trading, expect to hear my thoughts on the latest trade-war escalation. -
The Manufacturing Slump: As U.S. manufacturers sink on rising prices and lower demand due to tariff-war pressure, manufacturing stocks are falling lower this week. Expect a period of contraction in the manufacturing sector from here.
At 4PM ET today, President Trump is set to fire the latest salvo in an ever-escalating trade war… With new tariffs potentially affecting everything from cars to semiconductors on the table, the markets remain firmly in panic mode this week as investors broadly look for a safe landing in bonds and other “safe haven” assets. We’ve seen this apocalyptic sentiment in the market before… It all feels like déjà vu at this point. And despite the alarm bells going off, nothing has changed the fundamentals of our approach. When volatility rides high, we swoop in with powerful hedges that help us stay several steps ahead of all the market chaos. Over the last few months, we’ve seen a handful of stocks react sharply to all the latest tariff-war news… And right now, there are 10 stocks on my radar that represent the best ways to hedge on volatility in everything from manufacturing to retail and tech. So join me today in Masters in Trading Live at 11AM EST as we run down the 10 best stocks making moves as market volatility heats up this week. 
 | Chart of the Day: The iShares MSCI Mexico ETF Is Our Volatility Crystal Ball | 
While U.S. stocks have sold off sharply this year, the Mexican stock market is telling a different story… The five-year chart of the iShares MSCI Mexico ETF (EWW) above shows that, despite the recent spate of tariffs, Mexico's market is still flashing opportunity. And all that upside isn’t just restricted to Mexican stocks… That movement gives us our clearest indication yet of where the domestic stock market will likely move from here. The EWW has pulled back over 25% in the last few months, finding new resistance around $50. After cruising more than 9% so far this year, the ETF is starting to tick up from its most recent low to the tune of 1.26% – all while U.S. stocks crater amid heightened volatility. That move is significant for one major reason. Mexican markets have historically led U.S. market moves by at least two to three months. If this move higher is any indication, we may finally get some breathing room. Whether we’re nearing the end of the current market turbulence is an open question – but if the pattern holds, expect volatility to fall out of the market in the coming months. | Recommended Link | | | | The most valuable trading intelligence isn't on CNBC.
