Trump postpones EU tariffs, global markets welcome a key breathing window!
Originally scheduled for June 1, the plan for the U.S. to impose a 50% tariff on EU goods has been suddenly postponed to July 9. Trump personally announced: "We had a very pleasant call, and I agreed to postpone implementation."
This is a trade, definitely not a sign of weakness.
The EU is still struggling at the negotiation table, the U.S. is giving opportunities while also applying pressure. €21 billion in retaliatory tariffs are ready, but whether they will be implemented depends on the progress over the next few weeks.
This window period has released an important signal for the global capital markets: the risk of short-term conflict has decreased, and the market may enter a brief rebound period.
July 9 is the trigger point for the next wave of volatility.
Smart money has already started to position itself in advance.
