During the first-quarter earnings season, 84% of S&P 500 companies referenced 'uncertainty,' a trend reminiscent of the Covid-19 crisis. The prominence of 'tariff' discussions reached a decade high on earnings calls, attributed to concerns over trade policies from the Trump administration. Despite these uncertainties, earnings have surpassed expectations, leading to strong growth, while many companies reported minimal tariff impact for this quarter. The upcoming earnings calls may continue to reflect these themes as companies seek clarity amidst ongoing trade negotiations.
