The Supreme Court on Friday overturned President Donald Trump's decision to impose a broad global tariff. Trump will face immense resistance if he tries to persuade Congress to reinstate these tariffs, given the narrow Republican majority in both houses of Congress, the significant concerns about their economic impact, the challenges of enacting them into law, and the fact that some Republican lawmakers have even publicly celebrated the president's defeat. Nebraska Republican Representative Don Bacon posted on social media that "broad tariffs are bad economic policy," demonstrating the lack of support from both parties. Therefore, persuading Congress to reinstate a broad global tariff will be a very difficult task for Trump.

[Trump to Hold Press Conference Soon, Reportedly Stated Alternative Tariff Plan] Following the U.S. Supreme Court's rejection of most of Trump's global tariff policies implemented during his second term, Trump plans to hold a press conference.

01:37:18

Capital Economics: Court Ruling Significantly Limits Trump's Tariff Agenda Options. Capital Economics points out that US President Trump's other options for advancing his tariff agenda are quite limited. Economist Paul Ashworth stated that Section 122 of the Trade Act of 1974 is highly binding, not only limiting the maximum tariff rate to 15%, but also limiting its validity to only 150 days without congressional approval. He also mentioned that related tariffs must adhere to the "non-discrimination principle," meaning a uniform tariff rate for all trading partners, which means that many agreements previously negotiated by Trump will no longer be enforceable. Ashworth analyzes that Trump may also try to invoke Section 338 of the Smoot-Hawley Tariff Act of 1930, which allows the president to impose tariffs of up to 50% on countries that "discriminate" against the United States. However, similar to the IEEPA situation, Ashworth expects the court to rule that the relevant explicit provisions of the updated Trade Act of 1974 have priority.

Shares of apparel companies such as Lululemon, Levi Strauss, and Crocs rose sharply after the news was released, but largely returned to flat by midday.

01:36:43

[Economist: Tariff Ruling Has Both Advantages and Disadvantages for the US Economy] Michael Pearce, chief US economist at Oxford Economics, noted in a report that while the Supreme Court's ruling against Trump's comprehensive tariff policy could support the domestic economy by lowering the actual tariff rate, this benefit may be partially offset by long-term uncertainty. The Trump administration is likely to adopt other, more sustainable methods to reimpose tariffs, ultimately resulting in an overall tariff level similar to the current one. He also stated that even if overall tariff levels are restored, the impact on different industries and countries will vary significantly, leading to greater uncertainty for businesses, investors, and households. "This uncertainty is a key downside risk that could affect economic growth this year, but it won't cause a complete stall in growth."

Gold prices initially fluctuated before rebounding, following the US Supreme Court's rejection of the Trump administration's global tariff measures, which weakened the dollar. Simultaneously, Russia announced a reduction in its January gold reserves. The Supreme Court ruled that Trump's use of the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) to impose "reciprocal" tariffs and import duties on specific goods globally exceeded his legal authority. Spot gold initially dipped by 0.3% before recovering. Ewa Manthey, a commodities strategist at ING Bank, stated, "The Supreme Court's tariff ruling reduced recent trade uncertainty and boosted risk appetite, putting some pressure on gold." She added, "However, some tariffs remain in effect, and alternative trade measures cannot be ruled out, so the downward pressure on gold prices is relatively limited." The ruling coincided with the Russian central bank's reduction of its gold reserves in January, the first decline since October of last year. Over the past three years, central bank gold purchases have been a key factor driving significant gold price increases.

[Capital Economics: Trump Administration Can Still Set Up Trade Barriers Through Other Channels] Capital Economics analyst Paul Ashworth stated that the Trump administration can still use multiple avenues to set up trade restrictions, potentially resorting to Section 122 of the Trade Act of 1974 or invoking Section 338 of the earlier Smoot-Hawley Tariff Act of 1930. Regarding tariff refunds, he estimates the total amount involved will be approximately $120 billion, equivalent to 0.5% of US GDP. Justice Brett Kavanaugh, who issued the lead dissenting opinion in this case, stated, "As mentioned during the oral arguments, the subsequent enforcement process could be extremely complex and messy."

[Federal Reserve Official Bostic: Impact of Tariff Ruling Depends on Tax Refund Arrangements and Business Response] Atlanta Federal Reserve Bank President Raphael Bostic stated that the Supreme Court's ruling that Trump's global tariff policies are invalid will have a crucial impact on the economy, depending on whether companies that have already paid tariffs will receive refunds and the extent to which they will adjust their business strategies accordingly. Speaking at an event in Birmingham, Alabama on Friday, Bostic said, "Should tariffs be refunded to companies that have already paid them? If refunds are implemented, it will cause significant market disruption." He emphasized that it is crucial whether companies return to their original business models or transform last year's adjustments to supply chains and other areas into long-term strategies. Bostic stated, "Everyone is calculating and assessing, trying to clarify the impact of this ruling on their own businesses, while also judging consumer reactions." Regarding monetary policy, Bostic pointed out that the Fed's benchmark interest rate is 25 to 50 basis points higher than the neutral rate, which is the interest rate level that neither inhibits nor stimulates the economy. He said, "I think maintaining the policy rate within a slightly restrictive range is a prudent choice." He added that if inflation picks up, the Fed should consider raising interest rates.

[ING: Trump May Focus on Targeted Tariffs on Specific Industries Following Supreme Court Ruling] In a report to clients, ING economists Carsten Brzeski and Julian Geib wrote that Europe needs to prepare for more targeted US tariffs on specific industries following the Supreme Court's ruling that global tariffs are illegal. The court's ruling found tariffs implemented under emergency powers illegal, directly negating Trump's core tariff policies. However, ING points out that tariffs targeting individual industries such as automobiles and pharmaceuticals are not bound by these emergency powers. The firm believes that auto parts and chemicals are likely to be the next targets. "Europe must face reality," ING stated, "This ruling will not bring about a softening of the trade environment."

[LME Permanents Position Lending Rules to Combat Market Squeeze] On February 20, the London Metal Exchange (LME) officially announced that it will permanently implement a complete set of rules used to constrain the impact of large trading positions, aiming to smooth out large price fluctuations in metals such as aluminum. Under the new rules, if a holder holds a position exceeding 50% of the available inventory in the LME's warehouse system within one month before the contract expires, they must lend the position to other buyers at a capped interest rate (low price or zero cost) until the position ratio falls below 50%. Compared to the temporary version introduced in 2025, the new rules not only broaden the scope of application but also include near-month options positions in the regulatory framework. This move is a response to large traders such as Mercuria, Vitol, and Gunvor accumulating huge positions in the aluminum market, sometimes exceeding available inventory.

[After the Storm Comes the Sun: Underweighting US Tech Stocks Proves to Be a Winning Strategy] For a long time, heavily investing in leading US tech stocks consistently yielded stable returns, and actively reducing tech stock holdings was almost tantamount to forgoing those returns. However, in 2026, the market logic completely reversed. This year, tech stocks experienced significant volatility, dragging down the overall market, while mutual fund managers who proactively reduced their tech stock exposure actually outperformed. Goldman Sachs statistics show that nearly 60% of large-cap mutual funds outperformed their benchmark indices, a record high since 2007. The best returns were achieved by large-cap core and growth fund managers, partly due to the overall weakness of large-cap tech stocks.

[US Stocks Open Lower Due to Economic Data, Major Indexes Rise After Trump's Tariffs Are Overturned] Stocks rose while bonds and the dollar fell after the US Supreme Court rejected President Donald Trump's global tariff measures, as markets assess the subsequent impact of the ruling on US trade policy. More than 300 stocks in the S&P 500 rose, pushing the index further into its weekly gains. The Supreme Court ruled that Trump's implementation of "reciprocal" tariffs globally under the Federal Emergency Management Act (FEMA) and the government's imposition of specific import taxes to combat fentanyl smuggling exceeded his legal authority. Brian Jacobsen of Annex Wealth Management stated, "This means the Trump administration will shift towards country-specific and industry-specific tariffs, which will take longer to implement." Jacobsen also noted that Trump could introduce temporary, comprehensive tariffs, but the amount and duration would be subject to stricter restrictions, allowing him more time to complete the legal procedures for tariff implementation.
