Market News
- Dow Jones dropped 286 points, S&P fell 34 points and Nasdaq Composite was lower by 122 points as U.S. -China trade worries persisted with more companies suspending business with giant Huawei. UK-based chip designer Arm Holding, Panasonic and Vodafone have suspended business with the Chinese telecom giant Huawei.
- Investors started to fear the U.S.-China trade war is slowing the economy as Wall Street begins to realize the trade war may last a lot longer than previously expected. Bond yields and crude oil also plunged on Thursday as the rising risk spread through other markets.
- Chinese rhetoric is getting stronger in tone with China continuing to draw a hard line on their stance and with the US not offering any leeway, both sides are still seen heading towards a full blown trade war at this point.
Market Views
- Asia Pacific markets fell in early trade on Friday as investors remained worried that the trade tensions between the United States and China would stymie global economic growth.
- Beijing said that Washington needs to correct its “wrong actions” for trade talks to continue and it is hard to see Trump bending over to meet the Chinese demand. Instead we are likely to see a tariffs tit-for-tat next month and Huawei crisis widening.
