Hopes of a trade deal ahead of a March 1 deadline has helped the trade-sensitive industrial sector gain nearly 16 percent this year, making it the best performing S&P sector. "The market is predicated on a positive outcome from the trade negotiations, it's as if we are in a so-far-so-good phase in the negotiation process," said Art Hogan, chief market strategist at National Securities in New York. Another concern for markets was a threat by President Donald Trump to declare a national emergency in an attempt to fund his U.S.-Mexico border wall without congressional approval.
