    May 13 2025
    In this Buy Hold Sell Special Report, hosts ⁠Todd M. Schoenberger⁠ and ⁠Tobin Smith⁠ are joined by ⁠Sam Stovall⁠, Chief Investment Strategist at ⁠CFRA Research⁠, to dissect the market's reaction to the unexpected 90-day ceasefire in the U.S.–China trade war. Following weekend negotiations in Switzerland, both nations agreed to significantly reduce tariffs—U.S. tariffs on Chinese goods dropped from 145% to 30%, while China's tariffs on U.S. goods decreased from 125% to 10% . This development sparked a substantial market rally: 📈 S&P 500 surged by 3.3% 📈 Dow Jones soared over 1,160 points (2.8%) 📈 Nasdaq jumped 4.4% Stovall provides historical context, noting that two-thirds of bear markets have occurred near the 200-day moving average, suggesting that recent market behavior aligns with historical patterns. He advises investors to maintain their positions, highlighting promising demand indicators from Lowry Research despite recent volatility. The discussion also delves into the political pressures influencing market conditions, especially with upcoming midterm elections.
