Weekly Market Outlook May 20, 2018

“It is better to be roughly right than precisely wrong.” – John Maynard Keynes

Pfäffikon SZ, Switzerland – Trade conflicts can upset the peace on the stock market. However, for the time being, it is only verbal abuse. The US and China seem to find each other in a solution to their trade dispute. The critical question is whether such an agreement will last long with the fickle Trump at the helm. The old loyal ally of Europe now leaves Trump out of consideration. There is an urgent need that Europe sets its course and evaluates its outdated foreign policy.

The coming week will probably be calm. After all, it is a shortened trading week, and the agenda is barely filled.
