Moving Markets

European equities pulled back sharply yesterday after President Trump threatened tariffs on European goods, sending trade-sensitive sectors like autos and luxury sharply lower while defence stocks bucked the trend. Bond markets also came under pressure, with global yields rising and Japan’s 40-year government bond yield hitting a record high amid fiscal concerns and election uncertainty. In Asia, equity markets were mostly weaker despite fresh record highs in South Korea, while Chinese regulators moved to cool an overheating rally. Gold and silver jumped on safe-haven demand, oil edged higher, and diplomatic tensions flared further over Trump’s proposed ‘Board of Peace’. We’re joined by Carsten Menke, Head of Next Generation Research, for a timely update on critical minerals, with a focus on Greenland.
