🌍 Global Pulse: Tariff Pause, Gold Rockets, U.S.-China Trade War

Tariff Pause… Kind Of: President Trump’s administration has delayed most “reciprocal” tariffs on countries except China. Analysts at BofA say this could ease inflation pressure and reduce recession risk—at least in the short term. Markets welcomed the move, but volatility remains high.

U.S.-China Trade War Escalates: Despite the pause, Trump increased tariffs on China to 145%. China wasted no time, retaliating with 125% tariffs on U.S. goods. That’s up from 84% just days ago. BofA warns that these hikes won’t generate reliable revenue as companies shift supply chains away from China.

Gold Rockets to Record High: With traders spooked, gold surged past $3,220/oz, hitting a new all-time high. Safe-haven demand is back in full force, driven by tariff chaos, dollar weakness, and fears of economic slowdown. Silver and platinum joined the party, but gold remains the star of the week.

Apple in the Crossfire: Apple stock is down 14% since Trump’s tariff began, wiping nearly $500B in value. The tech giant is ramping up iPhone production in India to dodge China-linked costs. Analysts expect more strategic shifts ahead—possibly including price hikes or financing plays.

🔮 Market Puls: Volatility is spiking—ride the wave with BullRush!

📈 Trading Tips: How to Trade During Market Volatility?

Volatility’s not your enemy—it’s your edge. Inflation jitters, tariff battles, NFP on deck—yeah, it’s wild out there. But volatility doesn’t have to hurt. In fact, it’s the best thing that could happen to your trades. Here’s how to sharpen market volatility:

• Trade What You Know – Stick to your core assets. No hero trades.

• Tighten Risk, Not Your Emotions: Size down. Widen stops. Breathe. Volatility isn’t an invitation to YOLO—it’s a test of discipline.

• Zoom Out, Then Zoom In: Start with higher timeframes to catch the real direction, then dial in for sniper entries.

• Trade the News—Smartly: Think you’ve got what it takes to outwit the markets when the jobs data drops like a macro mic?

🌡️  Fear & Greed Index: Panic or Profits Ahead?

Markets run on emotion—and the CNN Fear & Greed Index is your cheat code for reading the crowd. Ranging from 0 (Extreme Fear) to 100 (Extreme Greed), it’s your sentiment compass in a sea of chaos.

Here’s how to flip emotion into edge:

😱 Fear = Hidden Opportunity: When the index dives into panic territory, smart traders go bargain hunting. While the herd dumps positions, value quietly piles up.
💰 Greed = Time to Chill: When the meter tilts toward greed, markets get overhyped. That’s your signal to tighten up, take profits, and sidestep the FOMO frenzy.

The Fear & Greed Index helps you decode it—so you can act with precision, not panic.

 👉 Trade the sentiment, not the emotion.
