Today was a day that put the nerves of the Investors on equity markets globaldue to a sequence of events that triggered extreme volatility. Among these also a mysterious and sudden declaration, considered subsequently unfounded, which initially opened a glimmer of optimism, before being categorically denied, leaving market operators in a state of profound perplexity.
In the afternoon hours, the markets were affected by a news released by Reutersaccording to which Kevin Hassetteconomic councilor of the White House, would have mentioned the possibility that the Trump administration was evaluating a suspension of customs duties for 90 days, but excluding China from this initiative. This indication had temporarily sent a wave of hope through the markets, which up to that moment were undergoing significant drops.
The short period of optimism had led to a slight recovery of the markets, but the positive reaction quickly ended as soon as the official denial. This cycle of hope and disappointment has highlighted the sensitivity and volatility that characterize the markets in this phase of economic uncertainty.
The exact source of the declarations attributed to Hassett has not been clarified, generating doubts and speculations between investors and analysts. Despite the widespread diffusion of the news in the media and on social networks, the origin of the statements that have triggered this turbulence remains uncertain. Shortly after 4 pm Reuters released this flash agency: “Hassett: Trump is considering a 90-day breaks in Tariffs for all country except china – CNBC ”. Too bad that no one, not even Associated Presswas able to say accurately from where that declaration came from. They searched and searched. And in the end the only interview that seems to have generated chaos does not contain that declarations at all and above all it has not been released to CNBS but to Fox News.
The announcement, he explains Republicshe had gone around the social media thanks to the tweet of Walter Bloomberg and yet “on closer inspection, in the interview with Fox from which everything would have started, it does not answer ‘yes’ to the question of the 90 -day stop”. But only uses an inter -market. On the contrary. In his response he seems to use an inter -market and then explain: “Pense that the president will decide what he will decide. ” Walter Bloomberg would then delete the post claiming that the first to give the news would be, in fact, the agency Reuters.
