Financial Market Preview - Thursday 7-Aug
Update: 2025-08-07
Description
US equity futures are firmer. Asia mostly advanced, and European markets opened higher. Markets responded positively to Trump’s planned carve-out from the 100% chip tariff, which exempts companies investing in US capacity. Trump imposed an additional 25% tariff on India over Russian oil purchases and raised the possibility of secondary sanctions on China. ECB economic bulletin and BoE rate decision in focus, with the latter expected to deliver a cautious 25 bp cut amid elevated inflation. Geopolitically, Trump said very good chance he would meet with Putin and Zelenskiy soon to broker peace.
