Wall Street won up to 1.07% after commercial approach between the US and the United Kingdom

The New York Stock Exchange ended with the three reference indexes in Green this Thursday, after the announcement of President Donald Trump of a commercial agreement between the US and the United Kingdom, which described as the “the first of many”, which enlivens the hope of a wave of fruitful agreements in the future.

In this context, the Dow Jones index of industrialists rose 0.62% to 41,368.57 points; The S&P500 won 0.60% to 5,665.02 points and Nasdaq Composite showed 1.07% to 17,928.14 points.

In Europe, the bags were recorded close to 1%, with the exception of the British index (-0.32%).

During the day on Thursday it was known that Trump signed a commercial agreement with the United Kingdom, which increases hope “that the chaotic commercial policies of the Trump administration soon balance,” said analysts.

By virtue of the agreement, the 10% tariff imposed on the merchandise imported from the United Kingdom remains in force, while the United Kingdom agreed to reduce its tariffs from 5.1% to 1.8% and provide greater access to US products. “Open a huge market”Trump declared.

The commercial agreement is the first after Trump announced in early April a series of “reciprocal” commercial tariffs against the main business partners of the United States. Subsequently, he announced a 90 -day exemption from tariffs, in the midst of a generalized reaction.

The United Kingdom was not subject to Trump’s reciprocal tariffs, although it still faces a 10%universal tariff, in addition to its high sector tariffs.

Fed: Powell warns of greater risk

The Federal Reserve maintained stable interest rates on Wednesday, as expected, but warned that the risks of greater inflation and unemployment had increased, which further overshadowed the economic prospects before Trump’s commercial tariffs.

The president of the monetary authority, Jerome Powell, said that it was not clear if the economy would continue to grow in a sustained way or counterpart due to a possible increase in inflation.

In addition, he warned about the growing uncertainty about Trump’s actions with his tariff agenda and pointed out that The Central Bank will not make changes until the perspectives are clear. That said, the president of the FED also pointed out that the US economy remained relatively resilient.
