In the opinion of the Monex Financial Group, the markets worldwide present negative movements, and continue with the losing streak of the last two days, due to concerns of the trade war between the United States and China, and the effect it could have on the growth worldwide.
This after US President Donald Trump threatened to raise some tariffs on Chinese products next Friday, May 10; and the fear that China could retaliate.
The financial entity noted that in the morning some economic data were released, such as Industrial Production in Germany, which fell less than expected; and imports and exports in China that presented mixed results.
The United States will raise tariffs on imported Chinese products worth $ 200 billion from 10 percent to 25 percent, the official newspaper announced on Wednesday, a measure that deepens the trade war between the two largest economies in the world.
