🔥 Turbulent April: geopolitics, markets, and a new role for crypto
April was a true roller coaster for global markets.
It all started with what some are already calling "Liberation Day", when Donald Trump announced an aggressive tariff package applicable to almost all countries in the world. The announcement, far from bringing clarity, unleashed a wave of uncertainty. In the following days, adjustments, postponements, and new threats were communicated, initiating what seems to be a renewed tariff war between the United States and China.
The market reaction was immediate and forceful:
📉 The S&P 500 fell more than 13%
📉 The Nasdaq lost nearly 16%
📉 Bitcoin fell 13%
📉 Ethereum fell 23%
