It may not come as much of a surprise, but fund managers were feeling gloomy in the aftermath of President Trump's April 2 tariff announcement. Bank of America's global fund manager survey found 49% of participants expected a "hard landing" for the global economy in the next 12 months, up from 11% in March. The survey collected responses from April 4 to April 10—meaning many responses likely came before the president put a 90-day pause on some tariffs.

That's how far the S&P 500 has fallen since President Trump's "Liberation Day" tariffs announcement a week ago, after accounting for Wednesday's furious rally. Forty stocks in the benchmark U.S. index are up over that time, while 460 are down, according to Dow Jones Market Data. (That excludes secondary listings for companies with two share classes in the S&P 500.)

The iPhone maker has been hit hard by the recent market selloff. Shares have slid about 20% since President Trump announced sweeping tariffs after the market closed April 2, compared with a decline of roughly 11% by the S&P 500. Apple, whose stock is down another 4.8% Monday, is particularly vulnerable to Trump's tariffs because of its heavy reliance on China for manufacturing.

The S&P 500's dramatic selloff has stocks looking cheaper. Are they outright cheap? Not really, at least if you look at how the market's price-to-earnings multiple compares to history. As of Friday the S&P 500 traded at 18.3 times its constituent companies' projected earnings over the next 12 months, according to FactSet. That's down from 22.5 at the index's February record but just slightly below a 10-year average of 18.6.
