Global Markets and Trade Wars Global equity markets are following a mixed course due to tensions between the US and Iran, as well as US President Donald Trump's trade policies.
Following the US Supreme Court's ruling that certain tariffs were unlawful, the Trump administration signed a decision to impose a 10% customs duty on all countries under the Trade Act of 1974.
The announcement that this rate will be increased to 15% in the future continues to put pressure on global trade balances.
Critical Data on the Agenda Analysts noted that the domestic data agenda remains calm, while international data such as US durable goods orders and factory orders could influence market direction.
Additionally, statements from European Central Bank (ECB) President Christine Lagarde will be closely monitored for clues regarding monetary policy.
