U.S. interest rate cut – will they won’t they?
The main U.S. indexes were generally flat today (9th July 2019) as investors continue to fret over the probability of an interest rate cut in July. Doubt was introduced last week as better than expected U.S. job data was reported.
Trade war truce and latest talks – new update due soon…?
Investors await more trade war news updates after China and U.S. announced a tariff truce at the G20. This has introduced weakness on U.S. stock markets and has further infected European stocks. Although, reports surfaced on Tuesday 9th July 2019 of communication between U.S. and China – but still no further detail released.
FTSE 100 and DAX traded flat today, to finish down slightly at close.
