During that time, however, trade wars and tariff threats have escalated, tankers have been torpedoed, and safe-haven plays of Treasurys (BX:TMUBMUSD10Y) gold (GC00) and the U.S. dollar (DXY) have been strongly bid. Big picture: Market participants want to believe this is 1995 — when the Fed cut rates the same day in July as the stock market set a record.
