Hi James and team. My first question ever. I would like your take on one of the many threats which are emerging in this escalating trade war between US and China in particular the removal of Chinese listed stocks on the US stock exchange. As investors in the likes of Alibaba and JD.com etc is this something we should particularly worried about and should be taking this threat very seriously? Is it something that the US could implement without much effort and time and if so what would happen to our shares and more importantly the effects it would have on the share price in hong kong
Hi can you give me a up date on BCBDB I am still holding hoping for a turn around or a take over .
Dear MM,
I am uncomfortable with Market Matters continuing to be so heavily invested and continuing to buy stocks in this volatile time when the market is in a correction with so much uncertainty. Will Market Matters ever consider moving to cash and if so under what circumstances and to what extent?
Hey there,
Hi Team,
I am surprised that some brokers are advocating their clients to buy stocks during these volatile times. From my perspective, given the respective tariff positions of Trump& Xi, it will be a long struggle & potentially get ugly before the market stabilises. Immediate improvement in the stock market can be expected if the tariffs are dialled back. My question is,1) how can Interactive Brokers offer their clients good deposit rates on the spare cash in their accounts?
Hi Market Matters Team,
Hi guys, I suspect you’ll be getting a fair few questions this week in regards to independence day. Would you mind including your thoughts and best guesses for various indices please. The last couple of months has been brutal for my account with the huge whipsawing and it would be good to have a 2nd opinion. I have largely agreed with you so far that the lows were in a few weeks ago and a big sell off on Wednesday was likely. I was surprised by the run up across various indices over this week, which to me suggests that large holders were prepared to put their cash to work and were confident that the tariffs would be short lived.
Currently it still early Thursday morning, but the ASX200 seems to be holding above last months lows which I thought we would be hitting at open. Nasdaq futures have hit new lows again, would that be from tariffs or reallocations as the other US indices seem to holding above previous lows. Similarly, European markets are still well above last years range.
