The US and China agree on a preliminary plan to ease trade tensions.
Markets are taking the outcome with a pinch of salt, with investors remaining cautious due to a lack of details or a concrete agreement; a US appeals court rules that President Trump can keep his global tariffs in place for now. It’s a win for Trump on one of his signature economic policies; and the UK along with several allies move to sanction two far-right Israeli ministers over inciting violence against Palestinians…the US says this derails Gaza ceasefire efforts. Guests include:
Damian Hitchen, Saxo Bank, Regional Head of APAC & MENA; and Omotunde Lawal Barings Head of EMEA Corporate Credit and Emerging Markets Corporate Debt.
