BULL case: SPY resilience on supply-chain redirection narrative supporting large-cap exporters (MSFT, GOOGL platform/cloud beneficiaries). BEAR case: Tariff uncertainty dampens sentiment; SPY sells off into policy risk. Current regime is risk_on (VIX, positioning); without a *hard* implementation date within 48h, narrative alone does not move indices decisively. LEAN: SPY flat to slight upside over 48h, as tariff chatter is priced but enforcement is distant. (weak)
