#TariffsPause Short-term financial market: Positive signals from US-China tensions

In a context where it seemed that US-China trade tensions would escalate again, the global financial market unexpectedly received positive signals.

President Trump has just reaffirmed his tough stance: he will not reduce taxes on Chinese goods without receiving "concessions beneficial to the US." However, what is noteworthy is that China is taking a softer approach. According to Reuters, Beijing is waiving tariffs on some imported goods from the US from the extremely high 125% tariff, a move believed to be aimed at alleviating pressure from the domestic business community.

The Chinese Ministry of Commerce has even established a special task force to compile a list of goods that could be exempt from tariffs and encourage domestic companies to proactively propose more – demonstrating an increasingly clear flexibility in trade policy.

Although both sides still maintain tough rhetoric, actual actions reveal a process of "soft de-escalation" between the two largest economies in the world – a factor that could continue to support positive sentiment in the global financial market in the short term.

Conclusion: Stability in US-China trade relations is crucial, and recent signals indicate that the risk of confrontation may be receding, opening up growth opportunities for the stock market, commodities, and even digital assets in the near future.
