Saxo Market Call

Four days in, Trump continues to dominate headlines, but...

Today we look at the latest flurry of Trump headlines and whether we are any the wiser on where tariff policies are headed, even as the market takes some encouragement. We sort through some of the next questions to ask about Trump policy as well, especially whether he'll get what he wants from the oil and gas market: lower prices. Elsewhere, the market is issuing a collective yawn after the BoJ hike overnight. And we flag the big event risks of next week and an interesting US option market indicator that suggests some nervousness despite record levels in the US S&P 500. Today features Saxo Head of Commodity Strategy Ole Hansen and Chief Macro Strategist John J. Hardy.

Trump 2.0 swings into action

The day after Trump's inaugural address, we sort through the interesting things that Trump said as well as what went unsaid and break down some of the ensuing market action, most of which was quite modest after the WSJ broke a key story indicating Trump would not be announcing any tariffs until federal agencies were tasked with investigating key countries. Today's episode features John J. Hardy, Chief Macro Strategist and Ole Hansen, Head of Commodities Strategy.
