Donald Trump’s blood bath of the ShareMarket affects the Australian Suprerannuation saving

“We have to see the nature of any rebound from here, and perhaps some signs that Trump is preparing to negotiate,” said Oliver. “According to reports, fifty countries have expressed the desire to negotiate … but it is still too early to say it. It is like trying to capture a falling knife.”

At local level, the S&P/ASX 200 decreased by 15 % On the back of “Liberation Day”, compared to 37 % during pandemic and 55 % in the global financial crisis.
Gordon Jagger, an self -financed pensioner based in Sydney, said he was worried about recent falls in the markets, but did not give up hope, having thought for some time that a market recession was inevitable.
“I think the equity markets have been overrated for some time, especially in the United States, and I thought I don’t want to be exposed to the US markets if I can help him,” he said. “It was just a question of when it would happen and (Trump rates) was the needle that made the balloon explode.”
