Macro-To-Micro Options Power Hour full episode from Apr 2, 2025
In this episode of Macro-To-Micro Options Power Hour from Mar 26, 2025, Samantha LaDuc and Hans Albrecht discuss the market chaos triggered by Trump’s announcement of broad new tariffs on foreign-made goods.
They unpack how uncertainty around these tariffs—especially their scope and impact on major trading partners—has roiled equities, driven volatility higher, and pressured sectors like retail, semiconductors, and small caps.
Hans explores specific options strategies amid the elevated skew, while Samantha highlights broader macro concerns, including credit spreads, yield curves, and the risk of a deeper market correction.
They both emphasize the challenge of navigating markets led by unpredictable political moves, especially as investors brace for recession risks and await more clarity on earnings and Fed policy.
