Trade War Fears Ease: Will Agriculture Stocks Rake In Gains?

Fears of a trade war between the United States and China had gripped markets over the last two and a half months. However, the fears somewhat subsided after Treasury Secretary Steven Mnuchin on May 20, said that tariffs against China have been put on hold. This saw markets finally bouncing back on Monday.

As investors’ confidence got reinstated, stocks rallied, with the Dow and S&P 500 registering their best performances in more than two months.
