Trump blows up G20 trade consensus

已更新

Quote: The leading global economies just found out that they now live in a different world: That of Donald Trump.

At a meeting of policymakers from the Group of 20 major economies around the world on Friday and Saturday (March 17 & 18 2017), they were forced to drop their long-standing commitment “to resist all kinds of protectionism” in their communiqué because of U.S. opposition. No one is sure what comes next. Source: politico.eu/article/trump-blows-up-g20-trade-consensus/

The G20 meeting is held in Hamburg on Juli 7-8 2017. This is an other issue to bring down stockmarkets in the second half of 2017 and it´s time to focus on this even stockmarkets before might go higher to new multi year or all time highs.

MAR 23 2017: The story behind the upcoming G20 meeting. Traders shoud ignore this until it matters.

Quote: The Wall Street Journal
EU trade official warns talks with U.S. are in ‘deep freeze’

TORONTO — The European Union’s chief trade official said Monday the Trump administration is sending “worrying signals” on trade, arguing that erecting barriers to global commerce threatens to kill jobs and raise prices for consumers in both developed and emerging economies. In remarks in Toronto, Cecilia Malmström said the EU is seeking to bolster trade ties with partners like Canada, with which the bloc reached a trade pact last fall. By contrast, Malmström said the EU’s free trade talks with the U.S. are in a “deep freeze” as the Trump Administration seeks bilateral trade deals as opposed to multilateral or regional ones.

MAR 28 2017: JPMorgan: A Le Pen loss will be a win for European equities

Quote:

If far right French presidential candidate Marine Le Pen loses the election, it will spur a "significant" surge of inflows into European stocks, JPMorgan said in a note Monday.

How significant?

JPMorgan estimated that a Le Pen loss will see at least 10 percent of assets under management flow back into the region's stock markets. It noted that since the beginning of 2016, around $100 billion has flowed out of the segment, according to EPFR data, marking up a loss of nearly 10 percent of assets under management. "We believe that these flows at least could come back into the region, should political uncertainty fade, in addition to any potential new net inflows," JPMorgan said. Some opinion polls have shown that Le Pen, leader of the far right, anti-European Union, anti-immigrant National Front party, could be a top pick in the first round of voting in France's presidential election on April 23.
A healthy majority of analysts and experts believe Le Pen, who wants to pull France out of the euro zone, won't win the second round of voting on May 7 if she makes it past the first. But fears abound over a potential dark horse Le Pen victory, in line with political surprises such as Brexit and Donald Trump's U.S. presidential win. That's spurred concerns of a potential French exit from the euro azone, dubbed Frexit, and even a possible breakup of the bloc. While JPMorgan noted that any "Le Pen loss" lap of inflows was likely to boost the euro, it didn't expect that would weigh on European stocks, which have benefited from a weaker currency. "We think a stronger euro would not be an impediment for regional equities and, in fact, believe the euro will turn positively correlated to euro zone equities, no matter the election outcome," it said. It noted that the euro is typically seen as a vote of confidence in the region. Quote: cnbc.com/2017/03/28/jpmorgan-a-le-pen-loss-will-be-a-win-for-european-equities.html

Now keep your Attention to this Issue:

And ask yourself: Why is Donald Trump getting aggressive to issues like "China", Mexiko or Immigrants if ever he getting under serious pressure about the Trump/Flynn/Russia/U.S. Election?

注释

APR 01 2017: Fear Indicator Mexican Peso

The Mexican Peso ist the most perfect Indicator to follow up how "storng" Donald Trump is (as US-President).

From the European and Mexican point of view is any "Trump weakness" long term extremly positiv. Maybe any Flynn testimony might cause a short term sell off - but long term Traders and Investors needs to keep in mind that this bullmarket is based on strong economic fundamentals and even not on Donald Trump. Donald Trump is still fighting against globalisation. If ever he might be forced to resign stockmarkets will go up.

The logic could be, that any impeachment could cause shortterm huge selling pressure especially to US-Stockmarkets. But keep in mind to check at times the Mexican Peso what signal we might get from here.

APR 03 2017: 'Not natural friends': Trump, Xi will be 'odd couple' at first summit

Some White House aides believe Trump’s son-in-law and senior adviser Jared Kushner could be an influential moderating voice on how he handles Xi in their talks on Thursday and Friday. Contacts between Kushner and China’s U.S. envoy helped smooth the way for the meeting, according to current and former U.S. officials.
Even so, what worries the protocol-conscious Chinese more than policy clashes is the risk that the unpredictable Trump could publicly embarrass Xi, after several foreign leaders experienced awkward moments with the new U.S. president.

APR 10 2017 - Opinion: Trump, May show surprising tilt toward pragmatism
Quote: Instead of acrimony and tantrums, we got cooperation and compromise
... However, in the past few days, the U.S. and British leaders have shown they are perfectly capable of reasonable policies designed around compromise rather than confrontation. ...
... The president carried out what appears to have been another valuable service by removing his top aide Steve Bannon from the White House National Security Council, where the former head of right-wing website Breitbart News had seemed out of place. ...
.... In a retreat from “no-holds-barred” Brexit orthodoxy, Britain has said it would abide by some rules — including free movement of citizens — during a transition in which new regulations are being phased in. On a visit to Saudi Arabia last week, May attuned her EU dictum to Realpolitik principles, accepting that no full trade deal can be concluded until after the U.K. leaves and conceding that immigration from the EU could continue until after the next British election in 2020. ...
