Tariff
A tariff is a tax charged on goods entering a country. It may be set as a percentage of the product’s value or as a fixed amount per unit. A 10% tariff on an imported item worth $1,000 adds a $100 customs charge before other costs. Governments may use tariffs to raise revenue, protect local producers, or respond to another country’s policies. The importer normally pays the charge at the border, but the economic cost can be shared through higher customer prices, lower supplier prices, or smaller company margins. Tariffs apply to trade in goods and are different from normal sales taxes charged on domestic purchases.
Tariff Tantrum
Tariff Tantrum is an informal market phrase for a sudden burst of volatility caused by tariff announcements, threats, or retaliation. Stocks may fall, safe-haven assets may rise, and currencies may move as investors reconsider company costs and global trade. The expression became especially visible during periods when major tariff plans were announced with little warning. Unlike the 2013 Taper Tantrum, it does not refer to one central-bank policy event or have one official starting date. It is media and trading slang for the market’s emotional reaction to uncertainty about tariffs and their possible economic effects.
Tealbook
Before each scheduled Federal Open Market Committee meeting, Federal Reserve staff prepare a detailed report called the Tealbook. Part A examines US and international economic conditions, financial markets, and staff forecasts. Part B presents monetary-policy strategies and possible choices for the committee. The name began in 2010 when the earlier Greenbook and Bluebook were combined. Tealbooks help policymakers prepare for discussion, but they are staff documents rather than final policy decisions. The public does not receive the current version before the meeting. Historical editions are released later as part of the Federal Reserve’s record of past FOMC meetings.
Technical analysis
A type of analysis that assesses a trade based on market trends and patterns, with the aid of technical charts and indicators to forecast future price movements.
Technicians / techs
Technicians, sometimes shortened to techs, are market participants who study price charts rather than focusing mainly on company accounts or economic value. They look for trends, support and resistance areas, volume changes, chart patterns, and signals from technical indicators. A technician may notice that a share has repeatedly stopped falling near $40 and treat that area as possible support. This does not mean the price must rise from there again. Technical analysis studies how a market has behaved and how traders are reacting. It cannot know with certainty what the next move will be.
Ten (10) YR
“The 10-year is rising” usually means the yield on the US 10-year Treasury note is rising, not that the note’s price is rising. This government security pays fixed interest every six months and returns its face value at maturity. Its yield is closely followed because it influences many longer-term borrowing costs and is often used as a reference for mortgages, company debt, and asset valuations. Bond prices and yields move in opposite directions. When investors sell the note, its price can fall while its yield rises. On market screens, “10 YR” may refer to the note, its yield, or a related futures contract, so the label should be checked.
