      You can’t say anything is 100% with a chaotic and erratic president. There’s always a chance that Trump will undo everything next week and things will stabilise for a short while. That chance might be very low, but it effectively invalidates 100% prediction.

        There’s also an even more remote chance Republicans in Congress grow a spine and take away Trump’s ability to set tariffs or the Supreme Court rules the “emergency” invalid.

        Ok, 95%. Trump undoing things doesn’t actually help “confidence in the market” though, it might even cause or chaos shorter term.
