Date: 13th March 2025. Wall Street Rebounds on Cooler CPI, But Tariff Uncertainty Weighs on Markets. Wall Street found some relief as cooler-than-expected US Consumer Price Index (CPI) data provided a temporary boost for stocks. However, Treasury yields continued to rise, with investors remaining cautious amid ongoing tariff uncertainties. Stock Market Reaction to CPI Data The US stock market recovered after enduring sharp losses throughout the month. The tech-heavy NASDAQ led the rebound with a 1.22% gain, although it remains down 6.35% for March. The S&P 500 climbed 0.49%, yet it is still off by 5.97% for the month, finishing just below the 5600 mark at 5599. Meanwhile, the Dow Jones Industrial Average closed 0.2% lower, reflecting investor apprehension over economic policy shifts. Despite the positive CPI data, Treasury bonds failed to benefit. The 2-year yield increased by 4 basis points to 3.982%, while the freshly auctioned 10-year yield rose 3.3 basis points to 4.318%. Investors refrained from aggressively chasing bonds as inflation trends had already softened before the latest tariff measures took effect. Global Market Response to Trade Policies Markets in Asia struggled on Thursday, reversing early gains as concerns over U.S. trade policies overshadowed optimism from the U.S. inflation report. The Hang Seng Index in Hong Kong fell 1.4%, while China’s blue-chip stocks dropped 0.7%. Japan’s Nikkei initially gained 1.4% before retreating to flat territory. Australia’s benchmark index slid 0.5%, confirming a technical correction as it fell 10% from its record high reached on February 14. European markets also faced pressure, with STOXX 50 futures slipping 0.5%. Meanwhile, US futures pointed to a weak Wall Street open, with S&P 500 futures down 0.5% and NASDAQ futures off 0.8%. Trade Tensions and Inflation Concerns The US government’s latest tariff measures on steel and aluminium, which took effect on Wednesday, added to market uncertainty. Canada and Europe responded with swift retaliatory duties, further exacerbating trade tensions. Please note that the trade policy developments are clouding inflation forecasts, with potential further tariffs on Chinese, Canadian, and Mexican goods posing additional risks. Commodity Market Trends Safe-haven assets gained traction amid market volatility. Gold prices surged 0.5% to $2,947.06 per ounce, nearing the all-time high of $2,956.15 from February 24. The Yen strengthened by 0.4% to 147.70 per Dollar, while the Euro edged 0.1% lower to $1.0879. Crude oil prices pulled back after a recent rally. Brent crude futures declined 0.3% to $70.77 per barrel, while US West Texas Intermediate (WTI) crude fell 0.4% to $67.44 per barrel. Looking Ahead The combination of trade policy uncertainty, inflation concerns, and shifting investor sentiment continues to shape global markets. While Wall Street saw a brief recovery, ongoing volatility suggests that market participants remain cautious as they navigate the evolving economic landscape.
