Morning Report 19 Jan 26: Markets on edge as Trump threatens further tariffs

from CommSec Market Update · host CommSec

Global markets are on edge after Donald Trump vowed fresh tariffs tied to Greenland, with Wall Street ending little changed on Friday ahead of the long US holiday weekend. Across the Atlantic, European shares closed subdued, weighed down by weakness in luxury stocks. In commodities, oil prices settled higher as the US entered the holiday period, while gold slid more than 1% on profit-taking. Back home, Australian shares are expected to open flat on Monday.
