at 1020 a.m. Visit CnBC.com slash morning take to sign up today. That's one word morning tape. We got the decision from the

0:24.1

Supreme Court. Obviously, if you own companies like retailers, as we do, you're going to have

0:28.8

and Nike, got to be excited because the court struck down the reciprocal tariffs. But before I go

0:36.7

further, I want to say that the market is circumspect about how much

0:41.9

this is going to end up really scrapping the tariffs.

0:45.3
