Markets for You
Asian markets closed in the green as investors shifted their focus from
ongoing trade war concerns to the upcoming data on U.S. and Chinese
inflation and comment from the chiefs of global central banks. Today (As
of Apr 10), Asian markets opened mixed amid focus on trade war
tensions and Chinese President’s speech due later in the day. Decline in
financial and auto stocks negatively impacted the indices. While Hang
seng grew 0.42%, Nikkei fell 0.09% (as at 8.a.m. IST).
As per the last close, European markets ended higher amid easing
trade war concerns after the U.S. President suggested that a trade war
could be avoided through negotiations. However, decline in Eurozone
investor confidence in Apr and Germany’s weak exports data for Feb
capped the gains.
As per the last close, U.S markets ended modestly higher amid some
optimism after U.S. President showed some appeasing gesture towards
Chinese leadership. Gains in U.S. e-commerce and an aerospace major
also boosted the indices. However, reports that FBI has raided the office
of U.S.’s President’s personal lawyer weighed on the market sentiment.
Indian equity markets closed higher amid positive cues from Asian
counterparts. Investors shifted their focus from the ongoing concerns
over the trade war between U.S. and China to the upcoming quarterly
earnings season. Market participants also awaited the release of key
macroeconomic data scheduled later during the week.
