Today's Market Fundamentals

The market continues to be driven by risk sentiment and in particular the recent fallout between China and the US, we have an interesting battle between fear and greed which is gripping traders and there is no clear winner just yet. The sanctions placed on Huawei have seemed to touch a nerve with the company admitting that they will be left behind, they have said that they will come up with effective measures but this could be the tipping point in these negotiations.

The Chinese government however have reiterated that they have little appetite for talks with the US right now – the reason is that they believe the US are not playing nicely and disrupting the economy – I am wondering if China are the pot or the kettle. Remember Brexit? Well it is still in a mess, there are rumours that there will be continued talks in parliament but I don’t believe that PM May has any hope of getting a deal through.
