Financialbuzz.com: 'Trade War Cease Fire' Video Recap Week Ending December 7th, 2018
FinancialBuzz.com News Commentary
NEW YORK, December 7, 2018 /PRNewswire/ --
U.S. stocks rallied on Monday after trade war tensions settled at the G-20 Summit over the past weekend in Buenos Aires. U.S. President Donald Trump met with Chinese President Xi Jinping to discuss trade matters regarding trade war tensions. Trump said that China and the U.S. have mutually agreed to 'reduce and remove' tariffs on vehicles coming into China, now settling tariffs at 40%. However, if the U.S. and China do not reach a deal, the 10% tariff on the USD 200 Billion Chinese goods import can raise to 25%, which caused the Dow Jones to fall by almost 800 points on Tuesday, marking the fourth worst day in history. U.S. markets were closed on Wednesday to honor the passing of former 41st President George H.W. Bush, but the bearish market continued on Thursday. The major selloff continued following the arrest of Huawei executive Meng Wanzhou in Canada, elevating trade war fears again. The Dow Jones fell by 495 points during early morning trading sessions, before a sharp rebound to close the day. The Dow Jones Industrial Average fell as much as 1690.73 points or 6.5% this week. The S&P 500 Index declined by 6.1%, while the Nasdaq Composite slipped by 6.2%. Tesaro, Inc. (NASDAQ: TSRO), Tribune Media Company (NYSE: TRCO), Cronos Group Inc. (NASDAQ: CRON), Movado Group, Inc. (NYSE: MOV), Lululemon Athletica Inc. (NASDAQ: LULU)
"The timing of the arrest is key here. Markets are already incredibly nervous over slowing economic growth thanks to the inverted U.S. yield curve. Relations between the U.S. and China were supposed to be on the mend after a productive G-20. However, the arrest has the potential to shatter very fragile U.S.-Sino relations which will weigh further on global trade and growth concerns," said Jasper Lawler, Head of Research at London Capital Group, in a note to clients, according to MarketWatch.
