President-Elect Donald Trump Is Set to Impose Far-Reaching Tariffs. Here's What Happened to the Stock Market During the 11 Days Tariffs Were Announced in Trump's First Term. | The Motley Fool

Contributing sentiments towards policy:

52% : While Trump is poised to impose more tariffs, the market is likely better prepared for them now than it was during his first administration.
52% : Still, if the market has learned anything about Trump, it's that he is very unpredictable.
51% : Once Trump is formally inaugurated on Jan. 20, he can make that promise a reality through executive orders or the Republican-controlled Congress.
51% : It's quite possible Trump doesn't follow through on his promises or uses the tariffs as more of a bargaining chip to negotiate with other countries.
40% : One cause for concern is that Trump has suggested tariffs on China could be as high as 60%.
39% : Investors should, however, be prepared for some volatility once Trump formally takes office because the market is still trying to piece together just how extensive any new tariffs could be.
35% : Or perhaps Trump imposes smaller tariffs than expected.
