Trump may 'bear down' to fight 'TACO' trade, strategist worries

Investors who have been buying the dip have seen gains in 2025, with the strategy seeing the highest return in more than 30 years. Some are calling the recent dip-buying activity the "Trump always chickens out" — or "TACO" — trade, referring to buying dips fueled by news of Trump's policy changes, then selling the rebound when the president backs off. When asked about the "TACO" trade, Trump denied that he is "chickening out," calling it "negotiation." Kayne Anderson Rudnick's chief market strategist and portfolio manager, Julie Biel, tells Catalysts host Madison Mills that she is "worried" that Trump may "bear down" on tariffs and fuel further uncertainty.

Asian shares mostly decline as uncertainty grows about what's next with Trump's tariffs

Asian shares were mostly lower Friday as uncertainty grew about what will happen next after a U.S. court blocked many of President Donald Trump’s sweeping tariffs. Japan's benchmark Nikkei 225 lost 1.4% in morning trading to 37,892.39. Government data showed Tokyo core inflation, excluding fresh food, accelerating to a higher-than-expected 3.6% in May. Some analysts say that makes it more likely the Bank of Japan will raise interest rates.
