New tariffs on China, Mexico, and Canada have been officially announced. Next comes retaliation, possibly followed by an escalation, and then probably a negotiation. A negotiated settlement is our base case because it fits with President Trump's track record, both in business and government, of using leverage to reach a deal. However, trade hawks may have more sway in this administration, so the odds of escalation and a prolonged trade war cannot be dismissed. They are higher than they were in Trump's first term.

Expect a flurry of action from the new administration following President-elect Trump's swearing in on Monday. Some of the moves could have an impact on financial markets, but most will not. It might take several days before some of Mr. Trump's top priorities are announced – just because they do not happen on Day 1 or Day 2, does not mean they are not happening.

A second Trump administration will promote a pro-growth and deregulatory agenda even as some policies deviate from a traditional Republican approach – it is a mix of populism and free market economics. Parts of this ambitious agenda can be implemented administratively while other parts, like tax cuts, must be passed by Congress. Investors have already seen how complicated that can be.
