With only about 16 days remaining until the March 31 deadline, it is procedurally nearly impossible for Congress to pass a complex tariff bill. Although the Supreme Court limited some executive tariff powers, Trump has pivoted to other executive authorities like Section 338 of the Tariff Act of 1930 rather than relying on Congress. Given the threat of a Senate filibuster and deep partisan division on tariffs, legislative gridlock is the dominant reality. The current market price of ~2% reflects a minimal 'black swan' risk; fair value is closer to 0.

Hedging
DXY
If Congress actually passes a bill explicitly creating tariffs, it would be a significant macroeconomic event. Tariffs generally raise import costs and inflation expectations, thereby pushing up the Dollar Index (DXY) and US Treasury yields. For equities (S&P 500), this is a bearish signal due to higher costs, particularly for multinationals and retailers. While the short timeline makes passage unlikely, if it were to happen, the market shock would be medium to high, warranting hedging.
