Interest rates in focus
In addition to technological profits, this week also sees interest rate decisions of the United States Federal Reserve and the European Central Bank, before US inflation data.
The actions enjoyed a healthy advance last week in the hope that Trump’s second administration would adopt a less hard approach to global trade.
However, his threat on Sunday that he would hit Colombian goods with a 25 percent tariff, which increases to 50 percent next week, and revoke the visas of government officials triggered the alarms.
The measure occurred after President Gustavo Petro blocked deportation flights from the United States.
In response to Trump’s decision, Petro initially announced 25 percent retaliation levies in the United States imports.
But Bogotá later retreated and agreed to accept the citizens deported, with the foreigner Minister Gilberto Murillo saying that they had “overcome the point.”
