The markets showed early up move reflecting optimism about negotiations on President Donald Trump's new tariffs that could help avoid a global trade war after Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent hinted that approximately 70 countries have approached the White House about trade talks, with Japan supposedly getting priority status. However, markets unable to hold the gains later and entered into negative territory as the implications of trade war between US-China continues to worry the market participants after China vowed to ‘fight to the end’ after Trump threatened to impose an additional 50 percent tariff on Chinese goods unless the country withdraws its new 34 percent tariff on U.S. goods.
