The tendency to risk increased this week after the United States and China temporarily reduced customs to a wide range of goods. The United States has reduced customs China to 30% this week, while China reduced their own customs to 10% on imports from the United States. Both nations have threatened in April that they will introduce customs duties above 100%.
“Although this progress has led to the probable peak of investors and political insecurities, there is still a lot of unknowns about where the customs rates will land,” said Adam Turnquist, the main technical strategist in LPL Financial. “However, for now, investors accepted the Deescaling Background, especially the custom duty agreement reached with China during the weekend.”
