Stocks have clawed their way to another record high this week as investors continued to extend increasingly precarious bets on trade. Traders and investors have ridden an extraordinary spring rally by betting against President Donald Trump’s myriad tariff threats,

Markets had dismissed tariff risks under the assumption that Trump would follow an earlier pattern and back off, in what became known as the so-called TACO trade. That allowed stocks to reach new record-high territory recently, marking a stunning rebound from the collapse triggered by his “Liberation Day” reciprocal tariffs in April.

Tariff Man is back again — and so is Wall Street’s TACO trade. President Donald Trump is once more threatening to lob massive duties on a wide swath of US imports, everything from copper and pharmaceuticals to goods from Japan and Russia.
