US stocks point to slightly lower open as traders react to global and economic developments.
Main drivers:
Trump’s Gulf Visit: Markets are watching for any new investment deals or geopolitical tensions. A $600B Saudi investment deal was announced yesterday, and Trump is now heading to Qatar.
Tariff Optimism: Hopes of US-China tariff easing have supported recent rallies and reduced fears of a slowdown.
Rate Cut Expectations Lower: Stronger sentiment has reduced chances of near-term rate cuts by the Fed, ECB, and BoE. This may limit upside for some rate-sensitive stocks.
ECB Outlook: ECB’s Villeroy said a rate cut is likely this summer, keeping some dovish tone in Europe.
US CPI Impact: Markets are still digesting yesterday’s inflation data, which could affect future Fed moves.
Trading Takeaway:
Momentum is supported by global optimism, but fading rate cut hopes and geopolitical risks may keep gains in check. Stay alert for headlines out of the Gulf.
