Markets Weekly Outlook - The gavel falls on global tariffs as inflationary fears return to the fold
The week saw a US Supreme Court ruling strike down broad global tariffs, though the administration is quickly moving to rebuild trade barriers, suggesting the high-tariff era is not over. Markets reacted positively despite disappointing GDP and rising inflation fears, fueled by a surge in oil prices. The week ahead focuses on high-stakes corporate earnings, particularly Nvidia, and key economic data like the US Consumer Confidence index.

The U.S. is slowing, but inflation won’t let up. GDP, PMI and tariffs in one “difficult” mix
The U.S. economy cooled sharply at the end of 2025, with GDP growth slowing to 1.4% annualized as consumer demand, exports, and government spending weakened. February 2026 PMI data still point to expansion, but at the slowest pace in months—while price pressures re-accelerate, complicating the Fed’s next steps. Markets briefly rallied after “emergency” tariffs were blocked, yet renewed tariff threats keep uncertainty elevated.

Bitcoin, Interest Rates, and Trump: A Crypto Market Review 2024-2025

A sustained break below it could amplify volatility as heavy put positioning on Deribit, dealer hedging flows, BTC-backed loan liquidations, and leveraged forced selling potentially combine into a cascading move. With the 200-week moving average near $58,000 and growing focus on downside scenarios, traders are watching whether support can hold—or whether a deeper slide could follow.
