Once again, the week in financial markets opens under the sign of the U.S. tariffs issue
Once again, the week in financial markets opens under the sign of the U.S. tariffs issue. Investors are awaiting developments and possible new twists in the ongoing negotiations, while the week will also bring the first Q2 earnings reports from major U.S. banking giants, U.S. June inflation data, and the Federal Reserve’s Beige Book. Equity markets remain uncertain, especially in the U.S. and Asia, while bond yields are on the rise.
Our macro dashboards reflect this renewed phase of uncertainty, driven by the approaching deadlines on U.S. tariffs, but they still confirm a fundamentally positive outlook for both equities and bonds (albeit with slightly increased weakness).
Today’s macroeconomic calendar offers few highlights, with the main focus on China’s June trade balance and industrial production in Japan.
Our forecasting analysis points to a mixed day for equities — more shadows over U.S. and Asian markets, while European indices may see some brighter spots.
Bond yields are expected to rise, and in the currency market, signs of recovery are emerging in the dollar index. Volatility is expected to remain stable.
