Moving Markets Relief rally as Trump declares “framework of a future deal” on Greenland
President Trump castigated European leaders over their response to his Greenland takeover attempt during his speech at the WEF in Davos yesterday but did step back from suggesting the use of military force. Equity markets rallied in response. They were given further positive momentum by a later post from the president which claimed that a framework of a future deal with respect to Greenland had been agreed with NATO and that tariff threats against Europe were off the agenda. Equity markets globally are mostly higher today and safe-haven assets have slipped. Norbert Rücker, Head of Economics and Next Generation Research, joins the podcast today to talk about Natural Gas - a sector that has not only seen a surge in prices of late, both in Europe and the US, but which also could be another bargaining tool for President Trump.
