Tariff Tracker

A guide to market volatility stemming from recent trade policy uncertainty

When markets do the unexpected, it can test the nerves of even the savviest investor. And negative headlines in a 24-hour news cycle can make it difficult to filter the noise.

While catalysts change over time, it’s important to remember that volatility is a recurring risk. The steep correction we’ve seen during the last few weeks due to tariffs and trade policy uncertainty is a sobering reminder that markets can swing wildly in short periods of time.

At Russell Investments, we’ve got you covered. Our experts stand at the ready to distill complexity and provide clarity on the portfolio implications of recent market turbulence.
