  • SINGAPORE (Reuters) - Markets no longer think Donald Trump is full of bluster and are moving quickly to anticipate a slowdown in U.S. and global growth as he raises a wall of tariffs around the world's biggest economy and trading partners start to respond in kind.

The article from MSN discusses the financial markets' reaction to the increasing likelihood of Donald Trump winning the 2024 U.S. presidential election. Investors and market analysts are beginning to take Trump's potential return seriously, as evidenced by market movements and economic forecasts. Trump's policies, particularly his proposed 10% import tariffs, are causing concern about potential trade wars and inflation. This has led to a noticeable shift in market sentiment, with investors adjusting their portfolios in anticipation of policy changes that could affect sectors like technology, healthcare, and energy. The article highlights how Trump's previous term influenced markets through tax cuts, deregulation, and trade tensions, suggesting that a similar or even more aggressive approach could lead to significant economic volatility. Moreover, the uncertainty around these policies has already started to impact bond yields, with markets pricing in higher inflation and interest rates.
