In extraordinary times like these there are some economic survival strategies that will help enlightened folks. We know for a fact that orders and shipping are way down because of tariffs. It's time to short the stock of those companies. Of course, Trump could change course, but all indications are that he won't in the short run. Also, some orders will try to bypass full tariffs by passing through a third country. They will do better and will probably rise. Big box stores may get exceptions, but those that don't can be shorted without worry.

Scavenger trading like this is what the Hedge funds will do, so copy them and you may recover losses from the market crash and likely win big. If you are new to the market use a fiduciary.
Remember, in times like these, there are risks of doing nothing and risks of doing something. Something is better than nothing.

If you have an economic advisor be sure to have this conversation with them.
