US Treasury Secretary Bessent said he will see US President Trump regarding the China tariff pause on Wednesday and some technical details remain on the China tariff pause, while the China tariff extension decision will be up to Trump and if he does not approve tariff pause extension, tariffs on Chinese goods would 'boomerang' back to April 2nd levels, or another level that he chooses.US President Trump said Chinese President Xi wants to meet and he thinks it will happen before the end of the year, while he stated that they will either approve the trade extension or not.

L’accordo tra USA e UE sui dazi, che prevede una tariffa fissa del 15% sui beni europei, ha generato una reazione valutaria significativa: l’euro ha perso l’1% rispetto al dollaro, suggerendo un possibile vantaggio per Washington. A pesare sono le dinamiche valutare: l’euro forte danneggia l’export europeo, mentre il dollaro debole - anche a causa delle pressioni di Trump sulla Fed - favorisce le imprese americane. Le aziende USA stanno infatti riportando risultati migliori rispetto a quelle europee. I dati confermano: l’83% delle imprese S&P 500 ha superato le attese, contro il 52% delle Eurostoxx. Anche le performance di Borsa mostrano un'inversione: da giugno Wall Street è in forte rialzo, mentre i listini europei sono fermi o in calo. L’Europa, pur detenendo ancora grandi riserve in titoli americani, ha ridotto la sua esposizione, contribuendo all’indebolimento del dollaro e subendo ora le conseguenze di un euro troppo forte. Ne parliamo con Morya Longo, Il Sole24Ore.In evidenza in Borsa l’auto europea dopo l’accordo Usa-Ue sui daziL’intesa sui dazi fra USA e UE, con l’applicazione del 15% anche alle auto, ha favorito il settore automotive, in particolare Italia e Germania. L’Italia esporta circa 4 miliardi in auto e 1,2 miliardi in componentistica verso gli USA. Sebbene il 15% sia comunque penalizzante, rappresenta una stabilizzazione positiva dopo mesi di incertezza. Secondo Equita e Intermonte, Stellantis potrebbe ridurre l’impatto negativo stimato (1,5 miliardi di euro) di circa un terzo se anche Messico e Canada ottenessero un trattamento simile. I componentisti legati ai produttori tedeschi, come Brembo, ne trarrebbero benefici. Tuttavia, i dazi al 50% su acciaio e alluminio continuano a pesare. Stellantis ha registrato una perdita netta di 2,3 miliardi nel primo semestre, con ricavi in calo del 13%, principalmente a causa della flessione in Nord America ed Europa. Interviene Gianmarco Giorda, Direttore Generale ANFIA.L’UE: «Su tasse digitali decidiamo noi», «nessun compromesso su norme alimentari e sanitarie»La Commissione europea ha chiarito che l’intesa con gli Stati Uniti non limita il potere regolatorio dell’UE in materia digitale. Nonostante l’impegno a non introdurre dazi sull’uso della rete, l’UE rivendica autonomia normativa. L’Italia, che applica una digital tax del 3%, si trova in una posizione delicata: l’85% del gettito proviene da big tech USA. Mentre la proposta di una digital tax europea è stata accantonata, anche a causa della mancanza di unanimità tra i Paesi membri e del rischio di ritorsioni statunitensi, l’ipotesi di una soluzione multilaterale in sede OCSE è in stallo. Il Pilastro 1 dell’accordo G7, volto a ridistribuire i diritti di tassazione, non ha ancora trovato applicazione. Intanto, altri Paesi come Canada, India e Regno Unito hanno sospeso, ridotto o escluso la loro web tax per evitare tensioni con Washington. Il commento è di Benedetto Santacroce, avvocato tributarista e collaboratore Il Sole24Ore.

Este capítulo cuenta con la colaboración de ford.es.Con el mercado norteamericano en plena subida libre absoluta -o modo cohete, coloquialmente hablando- y las bolsas europeas manteniéndose sobre soportes y, por ende, manteniendo viva la posibilidad de que a corto plazo en el Viejo Continente pueda verse un último estallido alcista, el ánimo del inversor no puede ser más optimista.Sin embargo, tal y como asegura Joan Cabrero, analista técnico y estratega de elEconomista.es, en el último episodio del podcast Estrategia de Mercado, "todo parece perfecto, pero incluso las trayectorias más brillantes pueden verse truncadas". "No soy bajista, eso debe quedar claro", explica, mientras matiza que "hay que disfrutar del viaje, pero desde una visión operativa responsable, manteniendo la exposición reducida tras haberla ajustado semanas atrás, conscientes de que en cualquier baile conviene saber cuándo abandonar la pista, antes de que solo queden los borrachos y la resaca".De hecho, el experto asegura que espera pacientemente a que llegue otro susto de mercado, -"esa pequeña avería en la nave"- que sirva para reconfigurar la ecuación rentabilidad-riesgo y permita volver a comprar con convicción. "Solo entonces, cuando llegue ese ajuste inevitable, será cuando aumentemos nuestra exposición a bolsa con convicción", afirma.Hasta entonces, la tendencia podría llevar incluso al Russell 2000, que agrupa a las pequeñas y medianas compañías norteamericanas, a entrar también entre en subida libre absoluta. Solo le falta un último tramo al alza, de un 10% adicional, que lo llevaría a batir los máximos de 2021 y 2024 en los 2.480 puntos. "En ese momento tendríamos en Wall Street un auténtico repóker de ases: todos los grandes índices en subida libre absoluta. Esa sería la culminación de la gran fiesta alcista, la foto perfecta, que invitaría a disfrutarla con serenidad mientras esperamos pacientemente el próximo susto de mercado", destaca CabreroEn Europa, la situación es más pausadaEn Europa, la situación es más pausada. Los principales selectivos de la región protagonizan dos meses moviéndose de forma lateral, con toda la tranquilidad del mundo, purgando la sobrecompra y aguantando sobre soportes como los 5.190 puntos del EuroStoxx 50, y los 13.700 puntos del Ibex 35. "Mientras estos soportes no se pierdan, no tendremos susto y no podemos descartar incluso una traca final".El movimiento de las bolsas europeas podría, de hecho, confundir a muchos e invitar a pensar que empieza algo grande, cuando quizá solo sea otra traca final, una réplica del exceso de confianza que vemos en Wall Street. Por eso, quienes quieran optar a esa traca final deben ser conscientes que será solo para aquellos con un perfil más agresivo. "Agresivamente, si quieres, con stop en estos niveles, pues te compro la idea de que puedas intentar aprovechar la traca final. Pero eso se lo dejo a los valientes, a los perfiles más agresivos, a los que son más calmados, más con una orientación de medio y largo plazo"."Para un perfil menos arriesgado soy partidario, haya o no una traca final, de esperar a que haya un susto antes de volver a comprar con fuerza", sentencia.

Javier Alfayate, gestor de Fondos, analiza los índices y valores bursátiles y ofrece sus preferencias a la hora de invertir. Según Alfayate, "lo que manda es el precio", y actualmente los principales índices muestran señales positivas. Destaca que tanto el Ibex como el DAX “se están saliendo”, mientras que en Estados Unidos el Nasdaq lleva semanas marcando máximos. A pesar de que el verano suele traer volatilidad, el experto considera que los índices apuntan a una continuidad en la tendencia alcista. ¿En qué invertimos? Alfayate subraya que la elección depende del perfil del inversor. Para quienes tienen un perfil más agresivo, recomienda apostar por un ETF del Nasdaq, teniendo en cuenta también el impacto de la divisa. En cambio, para quienes buscan opciones más tranquilas, sugiere el S&P 500 o el Eurostoxx. Añade que “sectores como la banca y los seguros están funcionando bien”.

Sara Carbonell, directora general de Banco BiG, analiza el momento de los mercados y qué esperar de ellos para el segundo semestre. “Ha sido un semestre complicado, con volatilidad, aranceles y conflictos geopolíticos”, señala la invitada. Otro de los focos, para ella, es la situación de la deuda americana, la inflación y la posible recesión. Pero como nos cuenta, a pesar de esto tenemos “la renta variable americana cerca de máximos históricos y el balance no ha sido tan malo como pensábamos”. La directora general de Banco BiG, comenta los datos macroeconómicos que nos esperan hoy de Estados Unidos. De todos ellos, el más importante es el PCE deflactor. “Tenemos unos niveles de deuda muy altos en Estados Unidos”, asegura la experta. Además, señala que “aunque el mayor tenedor de deuda americana es el Gobierno, Japón también es un gran tenedor de deuda americana”. ¿Preocupan los precios por el tema arancelario? La analista opina que “todo va en bucle, el dato del PCE es muy importante y la situación de la economía americana preocupa en los mercados”. La renta variable europea está teniendo un gran rendimiento este año. Dentro de los índices, el Eurostoxx lleva una subida en el año del 7%. El Ibex 35 lleva una subida del 19%. Si lo comparamos con la Bolsa estadounidense, el Dow Jones, aunque está en zona de máximos, lleva una subida del 2%. “El año pasado ya lo hizo muy bien Europa y por eso los índices europeos tenían más potencial de recorrido”, apunta la experta. Aunque también apunta a que estamos en “una situación económica mejor y que hay sectores europeos que tienen mucho potencial como el caso de Indra en el sector defensa”. La analista piensa que “Europa, en la segunda mitad del año, puede seguir haciéndolo muy bien”.
