Global markets lifted by Geneva talks

Global markets experienced a significant boost due to positive developments in the ongoing US-China trade talks. Both countries, the world’s largest economies, are working towards resolving their trade war to minimize the economic impact on global markets.

On Monday, equities saw a notable rally, with futures for the S&P 500 and Nasdaq surging by 1.5% and 2.2% respectively. In Asia, Hong Kong’s Hang Seng index climbed by 1.4%, while China’s CSI 300 rose by 1%. Companies in Hong Kong with manufacturing operations in China led the gains during the morning trading session.

The Chinese renminbi strengthened by 0.2% to reach Rmb7.22, while the US dollar saw a 0.3% increase against a basket of currencies. Gold prices experienced a sell-off, dropping by 1.5%, and safe-haven currencies like the Swiss franc and Japanese yen weakened by 0.4% and 0.6% respectively.

Yields on US 10-year Treasuries increased by 0.05 percentage points to 4.42%. The movement in bond yields is inversely related to bond prices.

Analysts speculated that the US might reduce the effective tariff rate on Chinese imports to 45% as part of an announcement on Monday. Rohit Garg, head of EM Asia rates and FX strategy at Citi, believed that the US tariffs would be rolled back to 45%, indicating progress in the negotiations.

Wei Li, head of multi-asset investments for China at BNP Paribas, shared a similar sentiment, stating that if the tariffs remained above 45%, investors might be disappointed. There is an expectation that the US could lower the total tariff rate to 45% to facilitate a more amicable resolution.
