As reported by The Wall Street Journal on Thursday, the US has proposed lowering tariffs on Chinese products during the trade negotiations with the Asian giant. The big issue of the market (with permission from Brexit, which is closer to Europe) seems to start to clear up and investors celebrate.

The idea of ​​cutting tariffs seems to be being driven by Treasury Secretary Steven Mnuchin, and is opposed by the US trade representative and leader of the negotiating team, Robert Lighthizer.

"It's complicated that this approach ends up going forward, although we believe that only the fact that part of the US negotiating team raised the possibility of reversing some of the measures taken to put pressure on China is positive and once again shows that the Government US is serious in its intention to reach an agreement with China in the commercial field, "say the experts of Link Securities.

Jasper Lawler, head of analysis at the London Capital Group, recalls that this is not the first time that progress has been made between the US and China and believes that investors will take it with "caution". At the same time, it recognizes that the increases that are being seen this Friday reflect the extent to which the market is conditioned by this issue. "Any evidence that the US and China are close to a trade agreement results in a movement of riskier assets," he says.

TECHNICAL ANALYSIS
