Actions in Europe and Asia rebounded slightly on Tuesday after several days of prolonged sales which saw stock markets crater since the announcement by President Trump of world commercial prices.
US stock markets can now also be ready for a small leap at the start of the negotiation day, according to the long -term trading data which often predicts the decision to open a market. This followed a tumultuous day at Wall Street on Monday, where the actions switched wildly for the third day of consecutive negotiation.
But after major slides and significant volatility in the actions trade last week and Monday – from Shanghai to New York, Francfurt in Tokyo – any slight increase in stock prices will only repair the part of the destruction of the value which has seen billions of dollars of wealth of investors destroyed in recent days.
The main stock markets of Hong Kong and Shanghai – the Hang Seng index and the Shanghai composite, respectively – closed slightly higher Tuesday, while Nikkei de Tokyo ended the day of the day in Japan up more than 6%. He reached his lowest level in 18 months on Monday, his listed actions that lost almost a fifth of the value in the past two weeks.
European markets began to exchange on Tuesday positively, but investors on the main stock markets on the continent also underwent significant losses in last week, and it was even before exporters really started to feel the effects of significant tariffs on European products sold in the United States.
While investors are looking for assets that can serve as a replacement against uncertainty in other markets, the price of gold has continued to rise to more than $ 3,000 an ounce, which encourages financial analysts to compare current geopolitical and economic uncertainty to that of the late 1970s and 1980s, when gold prices have also increased significantly.
And taking into account the uncertainty about the future role of the United States on the world scene, analysts claim that another asset generally considered to be a safe refuge for investors – the dollar – can also continue to weaken compared to other global currencies.
In China, a number of large companies supported by the government and listed companies have announced that they would buy their own actions, as part of a wider effort to calm local stock markets.
Heads in China said on Tuesday that they would not back up in the face of Trump’s threats to impose an additional 50% rate on Chinese exports to the United States, saying that “China would fight until the end if the American party is determined to follow the wrong way”.
