Equity markets’ rally following the G20 meeting outcome for a truce in the US/China trade war came to a halt today amid renewed concerns over US trade policy. With investors remaining concerned that the US-China agreement for resumption of trade talks does not indicate that the likelihood of a final deal has necessarily increased, fixed income assets remained well supported, Eurobank Economic Analysis & Financial Markets Research reported.
Meanwhile, the S&P 500 Futures traded tad -0.11 percent lower at 2,964.62 by 11:45GMT, while at 11:00GMT, the FxWirePro's Hourly Dollar Strength Index remained slightly bullish at 94.40 (a reading above +75 indicates a bullish trend, while that below -75 a bearish trend).
