The Market Minute for February 10, 2025, discusses weekly market trends and the impacts of new tariffs announced by the Trump administration on Canada, Mexico, and China. U.S. stocks fluctuated but stabilized as tariffs on Canada and Mexico were postponed, and the fixed income market saw gains as interest rates decreased. Oil prices dipped again, with retaliatory tariffs from China unlikely to cause significant market disruptions, while natural gas prices remained elevated. The U.S. employment report showed a healthy job market despite lower-than-expected gains, and the ISM Manufacturing Index rose above 50, indicating improved business optimism.

A weekly recap of equities, fixed income, commodities, and macroeconomic analysis from the FS Investments research team.
