These tariffs are more legally resilient than previous ones but come at a fragile time for the global economy, with markets already on edge due to the Iran war and rising oil and gas prices.

The imposition of tariffs and 'America first' policy may strengthen the US dollar in the short term due to protectionist trade policies, though the fragile global economy could limit gains.
metals
No direct mention of metals, but the broader economic uncertainty from tariffs and geopolitical tensions could lead to a sideways or rangebound market for precious metals as a safe haven, though not explicitly stated.

Tariffs aimed at protecting American workers may benefit small-cap domestic companies (Russell 2000) in the medium term, but the fragile economy tempers the outlook.
wti
The transcript mentions a 'spike in oil and gas prices' due to the Iran war, implying upward pressure on WTI crude oil in the short term.
yields
Economic fragility and geopolitical uncertainty may drive a flight to safety, pushing bond yields down in the short term, though tariff-driven inflation could counter this.
