The MOST LIKELY reason that the Supreme Court did not initially agree with the Sherman Antitrust Act is:

A They believed that the act restricted all trade.

Initially, the Supreme Court was hesitant to enforce the antitrust laws because they interpreted the act too broadly, which led them to believe it could potentially restrict legitimate trade and commerce.
