Money Flow & EU Premarket: A wave of optimism sweeps global markets. Europe set to open higher.

Europe is set to open the final trading day of the week with gains, as trade tensions ease and Federal Reserve officials signal openness to cutting interest rates sooner than expected. The MSCI Asia-Pacific Index extended its earlier gains after reports that the Chinese government is considering lifting the 125% tariff on certain U.S. imports. South Korea’s index rose by 1% following comments from U.S. Treasury Secretary Scott Besant that the country may reach a “mutual understanding” on trade as early as next week. Japan’s Nikkei-225 climbed 2%, driven by positive comments from U.S.-Japan trade talks. The U.S. dollar index rose while Treasury yields held onto Thursday’s gains.

Asian investors turned slightly more optimistic, inspired by the rebound in U.S. markets. By the end of the week, hopes have emerged that trade tensions might start to ease, with improving prospects for agreements. Risk appetite is returning, as the White House adopts a more conciliatory tone, boosting investor optimism that the U.S. will secure key trade deals with leading economic partners. In a sign that markets may be stabilizing after the shock of Trump’s historic tariffs, an Asian equities index on Friday erased all losses since April 2nd — the day the U.S. president announced reciprocal tariffs. China is considering suspending tariffs on some U.S. goods, according to informed sources, as the economic toll of the trade war weighs on certain industries.

On Thursday, Trump said his administration is negotiating with China, although Beijing denied any such talks and insisted the U.S. must remove all unilateral tariffs. Dozens of countries have called on Washington to ease the elevated duties, which were temporarily suspended for 90 days to allow time for negotiations. Japanese Finance Minister Katsunobu Kato stated that no specific levels or targets for exchange rates were discussed in his meeting with Besant on Thursday and that both sides agreed currency rates should be determined by the market. The yen extended its losses to 143.39 per dollar following the China news.

Alphabet Inc.’s earnings results also supported risk-taking, as its shares jumped 4.6% in after-hours trading following the report, helping lift S&P 500 and Nasdaq 100 futures. Market sentiment on Friday was further boosted by comments from two Federal Reserve officials regarding a potential rate cut. Fed Governor Christopher Waller said in an interview that he would support a rate cut if high tariff levels begin to hurt the labor market. Cleveland Fed President Beth Hammack added that the central bank could act on rates as early as June, if there is clear evidence about the direction of the economy.
