Asian share markets pivoted around inflation prints and other macro news as the chaos from Davos dies down although the TACO trade remains in play.

Wall Street continued the TACO trade overnight led by tech stocks while a series of high inflation data in the US failed to get the USD moving higher with all undollars continuing the structural “off-America” risk trade with the Australian dollar making another new high.

Asian share markets are generally higher across the region with only Chinese shares taking a breather as markets react to YATT (Yet Another Taco Trade) from Trump as all is forgiven over Greenland at Davos.

In a demented, incoherent hour long speech at Davos, Trump finally revealed his master plan by chickening out yet again on his threats to tariff Europe takeover Greenland.

Asian share markets have fallen across the region although Chinese shares remain resilient in the wake of the selloff on Wall Street overnight on a broader “America-off” strategy by all risk markets.

Wall Street came back from its long weekend holiday and sold off immediately in response to the EU revokation of the previous Trump-induced 2025 trade deal as the fallout from the shambles over Greenland hit all risk markets.

Wall Street futures fell sharply alongside the USD (and Bitcoin) while gold and undollars rose on the weekend tariff orders from the Trump regime, with the Europeans playing hardball.

With Wall Street closed for a long weekend holiday most risk markets sold off overnight as the blackmail threats on Europe from the Trump regime with counter threats of tearing up the Trump-induced 2025 trade deal heightened concerns of a wider transatlantic trade war.

Wall Street futures fell sharply alongside the USD (and Bitcoin) while gold and undollars rose on the weekend tariff orders from the Trump regime, with the Europeans playing hardball.

Well its going to be another interesting trading week to say the least with a flat session on Wall Street ahead of their long weekend holiday, while the rest of the world has to again adjust to a new world order where Europe and the US could be going to war.
