The much-expected US tariffs will be announced in a few hours and they will take immediate effect, according to the latest news.
Yesterday’s ISM data confirmed that the US manufacturing activity slowed, new orders tanked, employment softened while the prices-paid showed a steep jump – steeper than expected by analysts. The unideal data didn’t trigger a further selloff in US equities, however. On the contrary, the S&P500 ended a jiggly session 0.38% higher, as the yields retreated – meaning that investors put more weight on the rising recession bets than they did on the rising price pressures. But appetite remains...

March is over, the pain is probably not. Global equity markets kicked off the week on a negative note ahead of the so-called Liberation Day, April 2nd, the day the Trump administration will reveal the reciprocal tariffs to the rest of the world. Based on the strategy adopted by the White House since the beginning of Trump’s second term, tomorrow’s announcement will likely by exaggerated, overdone, buzzy and nerve-wrecking to make the others fear, react and negotiate.
From here, there are many possible scenarios – obviously – but the most likely two are 1. US tariffs sound more reasonable than...

The tariff talk remains on the headlines as the Liberation Day approaches. Risk appetite is nowhere to be found, the US dollar is weak, gold continues to extend gains into uncharted territories and oil bulls remain unreactive to the news that Trump is pissed off with Putin for unveiling plans for the next Ukrainian leadership. Equities are under pressure, the US dollar reversed an attempt to rebound from the March dip and is down for the third session on mediocre growth expectations for the US economy.
In summary, the euro is looking stronger than sterling and the dollar, while the...

Sentiment remains sour due to intensifying tariff talk. Of course, the global ramifications are immense and the selloff is intense. And April 2nd – aka the Liberation Day – when the US is expected to announce its reciprocal tariffs is the next event to watch. It’s hard to be optimistic when we know that retaliation will emerge and uncertainties will continue with possible retaliation.
Retaliation and the extent of retaliation will determine the next direction of the US dollar and equities. For now, bearish sentiment rules both across the global financial markets
And it is in this difficult market setup...

Sentiment soured for both US, European and Asian markets. The US tech stocks were particularly hit – without a new catalyser. Investors continued to step out on tariff worries, and the worries got worse when Trump announced that he would impose 25% tariffs on auto imports... both finished cars and auto parts.
The bearish sentiment across the US equities is now expanding into the European equities. The massive government spending being already priced in, European equity investors are faced with the ugly truth of the hectic tariff policies
Gold remains the most reliable hedge against the Trump tariffs.
The tariff...

Is the crypto crisis avoided or is this just hopium from the investors? How are the markets looking nowadays?

The latest data from the Conference Board came to back the mounting concerns among Americans regarding the future of the economy and inflation. On the other side of the Atlantic Ocean, the German data tells the exact opposite: business optimism in Germany hit the highest levels since last summer as the massive government spending that the German government agreed to unlock brings hope across manufacturers. As such, the convergence in sentiment between the two continents continues to develop, be confirmed by data and back the rotation trade. But the European spending narrative is now widely priced in. Therefore the European...

The week started on quite a positive note on hope that the next wave of US tariffs – expected to hit the ground on April 2nd - would be more targeted and more measured than previously thought. But Trump still threatened to impose 25% levies on countries that buy oil from Venezuela.
Crude oil, US equities and the US dollar gained, treasuries and gold sold off while European and Chinese indices posted small losses. Overall, Monday saw a correction of the rotation trade that hit the US equities and boosted the European and Chinese equivalents so far this year. Whether...

US equities saw a precious support from the Federal Reserve (Fed) last week, as policymakers decided to downplay the impact of tariffs on inflation by saying that it would be ‘transitory’ and slowed the pace of QT. US equities rebounded and the dollar recovered.
The week will probably be heavy with tariff talk. The early-week echoes are positive with rumours that the upcoming tariffs would be more measures than previously thought. But, who knows?
Investors will be watching the March preliminary PMI numbers today, and look for hints on how the US shake-up reflects in activity. So far, the evolution...
