Futures Decline as Markets React to Tariff News

S&P 500 and Nasdaq 100 index futures fell over 0.5% during Monday’s morning trading session. Market participants brace for volatility this week. Key drivers include tariff announcements by the U.S. president and potential impacts on global trade dynamics.

Tariff details and U.S. economic reports will likely influence investor behavior. The market’s focus on indicators of economic slowdown and inflation risks could further drive trading decisions. Chris Weston from Pepperstone highlighted the market’s sensitivity to tariff-related headlines and economic data themes that could accelerate perceived economic slowdowns, spurring further risk asset sell-offs. He stated:

“The market is now entirely fixated on the upcoming deluge of tariff-related headlines, highly sensitive to any economic data themes accelerating the slowdown in economic activity and expectations of rising inflation. Risk assets will continue to sell-off early this week, with cross-asset volatility increasing.”
