TOMORROW’S TRADE IDEA, TODAY

Tariffs and Trade Wars
Earlier this week, President Donald Trump announced sweeping tariffs, impacting nearly 200 of America’s trading partners. China was one of the hardest hit, and in response announced retaliatory tariffs today, imposing a 34% tariff on all US imports.
As the trade war escalates, Goldman Sachs $GS ( ▼ 7.91% ) is on the lookout for stocks that could face the worst consequences. It screened for companies with at least 25% of their revenue tied to the Greater China region, putting them in a perilous position.
Among the stocks named were automaker Aptiv $APTV ( ▼ 4.32% ) , fiber optics manufacturer Corning $GLW ( ▼ 7.61% ) , and semiconductor companies like Intel $INTC ( ▼ 11.5% ) and Qualcomm $QCOM ( ▼ 8.58% ) . Let’s zoom in on some of the most notable — and maybe most surprising — names on the list.
NVIDIA
NVIDIA $NVDA ( ▼ 7.36% ) was one of several chipmakers on the list — and by far the largest. 39% of its revenue comes from the region.
The stock has fallen nearly 30% YTD. Much of Wall Street is betting on a rebound for the hottest blue chip of the AI boom. But when it happens (and/or how far it falls first) is very much up for debate.
Average analyst ratings suggest an upside of more than 50%. Now could be a good time to get in on one of the biggest success stories of the past few years — so long as you believe it has hit its bottom. On that point, Goldman isn’t so sure.
Wynn Resorts
Wynn Resorts $WYNN ( ▼ 3.83% ) is most often associated with Las Vegas. But it also has a huge presence in Macau, sometimes known as the “Las Vegas of Asia”. Nearly 50% of Wynn’s revenue is exposed to China.
Shares of the casino operator have fallen almost 20% YTD, but as with NVIDIA, analysts are confident in a turnaround. Its average price target suggests around 40% upside.
As stocks continue to tumble, investors may have an opportunity to buy the dip. According to Goldman Sachs, determining how far that dip will go depends largely on how close said companies are tied to China.
