European Benchmarks Rise While Asian Shares Finished Lower Amid Uncertainty over Trump's Tariffs

  • European shares rose modestly on May 30 as investors reacted to an uncertain US court ruling blocking parts of President Trump's tariffs while Asian benchmarks mostly fell.
  • The court ruled that the law invoked to impose some tariffs does not authorize their use, blocking certain duties, but it permitted tariffs on steel, aluminum, and automobiles to stay in effect; meanwhile, the White House is contesting the decision on appeal.
  • European indexes like the Stoxx 600 ended slightly higher with Germany's DAX up 0.3% and France's CAC 40 rose 0.2%, despite tariff concerns and slowing German retail sales.
  • US crude oil rose to $61.18 a barrel and Brent crude edged up to $64.38, while Tokyo core inflation unexpectedly climbed to 3.6% amid concerns about rising Japanese interest rates.
  • The mixed market reactions reflect ongoing trade policy uncertainty and inflation pressures, casting doubt on near-term global economic stability and monetary policy paths.
