Currencies: USD surges on a story suggesting sweeping Trump tariffs, GBP weaker as UK yields rise sharply.

Commodities: Gold surges past line of resistance now at USD 2672, crude futures hit highs then retreat on mixed demand signals.

Fixed Income: US treasury yields fall back after a charge higher on fresh Trump tariff concerns. 

GBP suffered a broad drubbing, with GBPUSD hitting a new low at 1.2238, as UK yields rose sharply, suggesting a stagflationary outlook for the country. 

It is really quite dramatic to see it lose so much, so quickly.

Bitcoin has jumped above US$17,000 and reached its highest level since December 2017.

Most analysts claim that such a big spike is related to the pandemic and its impact on the global economy. Investors started to move their funds out of stock markets and purchase cryptocurrency as they believe it can become a new shelter from shares volatility.

So, check your crypto wallets, maybe it’s time to reconsider your investment portfolio.
