Markets surge on China #Tariffs optimism and just leaving Powell alone…
🇨🇳 China deal? Markets shifted higher this week as the White House started to soften its #Tariffs stance on China. Investors are extremely optimistic for a deal to be made sooner rather than later, but China maintains no discussions have started yet.
🏦 Powell is safe. After threats to remove him early, it looks like Powell is safe as the Fed Chairman for the time being. The White House announced that it has no intention to remove Powell early. It was another sigh of relief for markets to rally on this week.
📈 Relief rally. After Monday’s dip on the tail end of the Powell feud, markets rallied for 4 straight days to end the week. It was a relief rally driven by pent-up optimism hoping that the end of the #Tariffs debacle is near. The S&P 500 ends the week up 4.6%.
