Legal Proceedings and New Tariff Moves in the US Global markets reacted after the US Supreme Court ruled that "emergency" tariffs implemented by President Donald Trump were unlawful.
Following the court's decision, Trump signed a measure under the 1974 Trade Act to impose a 10% global customs duty on all countries, announcing that this rate would later be increased to 15%.
This tension between the Trump administration and the judiciary has reduced predictability in trade policies and increased the risk perception regarding US assets.
Consequently, investors shifted their focus toward Asian markets on the first trading day of the week.
Optimism in Regional Markets The invalidation of certain customs tariffs targeting China, South Korea, Japan, and Taiwan created an optimistic atmosphere for regional economies.
The Chinese Ministry of Commerce emphasized that the US should completely remove unilateral tax measures, stating that trade conflicts are harmful to both parties.
Following these developments, the market situation was as follows: In South Korea, the Kospi index rose by 0.7% to 5,846.09 points.
In Hong Kong, the Hang Seng index gained 2.6%, reaching 27,100 points.
In India, the Sensex index traded at 83,083 points with a 0.3% premium.
Markets in China and Japan remained closed due to public holidays.
