Republican presidential nominee Donald Trump described “tariff” as his favorite word earlier this month, and it’s increasingly a word that’s coming up in S&P 500 companies’ quarterly earnings conference calls.
Starbucks Corp. on Wednesday said its latest quarterly results “do not reflect the strength of our brand,” and said it needed to make fundamental changes to bring back customers.
DoorDash Inc. on Wednesday reported third-quarter results and a fourth-quarter demand outlook that topped expectations, as the company continues to invest in expansion and improving service.
Those betting on Trump may want to consider the latest economic data, which indicate Harris could benefit from material tailwinds that become a decisive factor in a close race.
