Moving Markets: Daily News

European markets surged following German Chancellor-in-waiting Friedrich Merz's commitment to do 'whatever it takes' to ramp up defence and infrastructure, but this vow comes with a price tag:  increased fiscal spending. Consequently, government bond yields soared across the continent. Meanwhile, in the US, markets rebounded after President Donald Trump temporarily lifted his 25% tariffs on Canadian and Mexican auto imports. Joining us to break down the implications for currencies and metals is Tim Gagie, Head of FX/PM Private Banking Sales in Geneva.
