  • Inflation Cools, Trump Heats Up
    May 14 2025

    In a moment of cautious optimism, U.S. markets began the day with a muted rally, buoyed by cooling inflation and the ever-theatrical rhythms of Trump-era geopolitics. A softer-than-expected Consumer Price Index reading lent Wall Street a sense of temporary calm, while investors resumed their uneasy waltz with a familiar, if no less erratic, political narrative.

  • Soft Data, Strong Moves
    May 13 2025

    Markets, like people, are creatures of mood. On Tuesday morning, they woke with a mix of apprehension and hope, scanning for signals - from inflation data, central bankers, and the choreography of global diplomacy. A cooler-than-expected consumer price report offered some relief, while news of a fragile trade truce with China sent stocks into celebratory overdrive, even as bond markets quietly reminded us that in economics, every gift comes with conditions.

  • Diplomacy Is the New Black
    May 12 2025

    Well, it finally happened: the world's two economic frenemies - America and China - have called a temporary timeout in their trade dispute. Both sides have agreed to ease off their tariff trigger fingers for 90 days. According to U.S. Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent, neither side wants to “decouple” - which, in diplomatic speak, translates roughly to: "Look, we may fight like cats in a burlap sack, but divorce is expensive."

  • Eighty Percent and Falling
    May 9 2025

    In the latest chapter of America’s enduring trade drama with China, Donald Trump has floated an eyebrow-raising figure: eighty percent tariffs on Chinese goods. Posted with trademark bombast on Truth Social, the suggestion is less an economic policy than a warning shot - a symbolic escalation ahead of this weekend’s talks in Switzerland. While markets remained measured, the proposal underscores Trump's enduring belief in the tariff as both cudgel and campaign slogan, a reminder that the trade war may be less resolved than momentarily paused.

  • London Calling: Markets Jump
    May 8 2025

    The Federal Reserve's decision to do nothing was, fittingly, a non-event. Markets barely blinked. Wall Street resumed its upward drift, undisturbed by the central bank's cautious stance. This morning, attention has shifted to fresh developments in global trade and politics: a potential softening of U.S. semiconductor export rules, a renewed Trump-era push to lower drug prices, and signs of a looming trade agreement between America and Britain.
