International financial markets are facing increased volatility after U.S. President Donald Trump threatened 10% tariffs on imports from Denmark, Norway, Sweden, France, Germany, the Netherlands, Finland, and the United Kingdom, starting February 1, with the possibility of increasing to 25% from June 1 if no agreement is reached. Economists warn that these trade tensions could again affect the markets, which were relatively calm in the second half of last year. Although the immediate impact on European stock exchanges may be less than in the past, the euro could experience additional pressure. In this climate of uncertainty, the price of gold remains high, and investors continue to seek safe-haven assets. The dispute over Greenland adds to other international tensions, including possible U.S. interventions in Iran and controversies related to the independence of the Federal Reserve. Analysts emphasize that, although investors have adapted to a tense geopolitical climate, repeated shocks can amplify economic uncertainty.
