- The delay came amid rising trade tensions and stalled negotiations that Trump criticized as unproductive, while the EU conveyed its willingness to move forward with discussions promptly and with determination.
- The tariff postponement triggered a rally in Wall Street futures and European stocks, as investors received temporary relief despite ongoing concerns about a potential trade war and economic uncertainty.
- Analysts cautioned that the limited time frame before tariffs are scheduled to take effect may not allow for a fully detailed agreement, and warned that if the U.S. Imposes broad 20% or 30% tariffs on EU goods, Europe is likely to respond with strong retaliatory actions.
- Market watchers emphasized that substantial uncertainty remains, suggesting volatility could continue and that the EU-US trade situation remains a high-stakes process with much still at risk.
