A renewed EU-US trade war could divert US tariff pressure globally, potentially affecting Asian exporters competing in European markets; a weaker euro from trade tensions also impacts Asian currencies and trade competitiveness.
🌊 Ripple Effects
- ▸German DAX equities — bearish, as Germany's auto and industrial exporters face heightened US tariff risk
- ▸Euro (EUR/USD) — bearish pressure, trade uncertainty typically weighs on the euro against safe-haven currencies
- ▸US big tech stocks — at risk if EU advances SPD's proposed digital tax as a retaliatory measure
🔭 What to Watch Next
PRO- ▸EU Parliament vote on EU-US tariff deal — Weber's motion could block or delay the agreement, watch scheduling
- ▸Trump administration's formal tariff announcement — any new rate levels targeting EU goods, especially autos
- ▸EU Council and Commission response — whether a digital tax proposal advances from SPD proposal to EU-wide policy
