Trump’s 30% EU Tariff Announcement Triggers Muted Market Reaction, Says Danske Bank Analyst

On July 14, Danske Bank Research analyst Kirstine Kundby-Nielsen assessed that the fixed income market is likely to exhibit a measured response to U.S. President Trump’s announcement of a 30% tariff on the EU. The European Union has expressed a preference for extended negotiations, opting to delay any retaliatory tariffs against the United States. Kundby-Nielsen emphasized that the prevailing consensus anticipates the avoidance of increased tariffs before August 1. Market participants currently interpret the tariff announcement primarily as a strategic maneuver in ongoing trade discussions, resulting in a subdued market reaction. This perspective underscores the cautious optimism within financial circles regarding the potential for diplomatic resolution without immediate escalation in trade tensions.
