On this episode of Stock Movers:
- President Donald Trump pledged he will still apply tariffs to phones, computers and popular consumer electronics, downplaying a weekend exemption as a procedural step in his overall push to remake US trade. The late Friday reprieve — exempting a range of popular electronics from 125% tariffs on China and a 10% flat rate around the globe — is temporary and a part of the longstanding plan to apply a different, specific levy to the sector. Trump doubled down on the plan Sunday.
- Shares of Chinese electric vehicle makers extend gains Monday after a news report said that China is in talks with the European Union to set minimum prices on EVs made in the Asian nation, instead of tariffs. BYD rises as much as 4.1% in Hong Kong, Geely +5.5%, Great Wall Motor +2.6%, Xpeng +7.7%, Nio +8.8%; SAIC Motor gains as much as 2.8% in Shanghai.
- Europe’s luxury-goods stocks have had a turbulent start to the year, giving investors plenty to consider heading into first-quarter results from sector bellwether LVMH. The January rally in luxury shares is now a distant memory, as President Donald Trump’s trade war threatens to escalate a violent equity selloff and inflict more pain on Europe’s makers of finer things. A luxury stocks index compiled by Goldman Sachs Group Inc. has shed more than $200 billion from its February peak, and hopes are evaporating that Chinese stimulus can spark a lasting rebound.
