Global Markets in Flight to Safety After Tariff News
Global Markets in Flight to Safety After Tariff News
While plenty of uncertainty remains over the finer points of Wednesday afternoon's tariff announcement, markets have heard enough to brace for impact on global trade. That "bracing" is being traded in the form of a flight to safety (sell stocks, buy bonds) that began yesterday and continued overnight. 10yr yields were already close to 4.0% before this morning's weaker ISM Services data, and have been inching closer since then.
