A World Searching for a Recession
The US session keyed off with a Trump tweet and yet another defiant message that gave us no indication the respective Xi-Trump camps are anywhere near to forging a deal. But the tweet set a risk-off tone in markets, and this was then given additional tailwind by a shocker of an ISM manufacturing print in the US, but also in Canada.

U.S. small-cap stocks under renewed threat from tariffs
Last week's announcement of more U.S. tariffs on Chinese goods may have undermined the prospects for small-cap stocks to rebound this year, even after a brief respite from the Federal Reserve's recent interest-rate cut. Just a day after the Fed cut interest rates for the first time in more than a decade, President Donald Trump vowed on Aug. 1 to impose 10% tariffs on an additional $300 billion of Chinese goods beginning on Sept. 1.

Why U.S. small caps may lag despite U.S.-China trade truce
A truce in the trade war between the United States and China that pushed large-cap stocks to new record highs Monday does not appear to be enough to buoy the shares of small U.S. companies that are struggling under the weight of higher tariff costs. Lower margins and less pricing power are preventing small companies from either passing on or weathering the effects of higher trade tariffs to the same degree as large caps, effectively putting a ceiling on their growth prospects, fund managers and analysts say. For the year to date, the benchmark Russell 2000 index of small companies is up nearly 17%, yet remains more than 8% below the record highs it reached in August 2018.
