Giuliani also told his bank to turn over at least $30,000 in a bank account, according to a Friday court filing.

Giuliani has indicated in court proceedings one watch is from his grandfather and two others were gifts from European leaders after the September 11, 2001, attacks. The pair are also still fighting in court to try to win his $3.5 million Palm Beach, Florida, condo and four Yankees World Series rings from the 1990s and 2000.

Trade tensions, too, have resulted in tariffs and affected world trade in certain goods. The market for companies in this space is driven by the volume of global trade, and this so-called supply chain "complexity," Goldman noted. It sees some stocks as being able to benefit from higher supply chain "complexity." Freight-forwarding firms such as DSV , DHL Forwarding and Kuehne+Nagel are "well-placed to help their clients navigate higher complexity and shocks," Goldman said. Container lines such as Cosco, Maersk and Hapag-Lloyd are less directly exposed to the higher supply chain complexity, said Goldman.

A look back in history shows how a key group of transportation stocks performed the last time there was a major port strike, according to Wolfe Research. Against that backdrop, Scott Group, a senior analyst covering freight transportation at Wolfe, looked at transportation stocks in 2002, the last time there was a major port strike in the U.S. That strike, which lasted just 11 days and affected only West Coast ports, hurt transportation stocks throughout the protest, he said. But those same stocks staged a major comeback in the month after the strike ended. Here are how some key stocks performed during and after the last major strike. Robinson Worldwide was among the biggest laggards during the last port strike.

The strike could lead to billions in daily economic losses and stall imports ranging from mangoes to auto parts. The dockworkers are pushing for higher wages and a ban on automation at the ports. AdvertisementA major strike at US ports started on Tuesday and could snarl everything from holiday shopping to auto production lines. But the strike could halt shipments of those foods, including mangoes, bananas, and other fresh fruit from Central and South America.

Port workers are demanding a 61.5% raise and oppose the adoption of automation in new contract negotiations. According to Stifel analyst Bruce Chan, the ramifications of the port strike won't be sizable unless the strike is drawn out for more than two weeks. Robinson Worldwide and Expeditors International of Washington have seen gains of 4% and 5% in the past week, respectively, as investors anticipate increased business due to the port strike.
