The best wines? They rarely make it to U.S. shelves...

Markets

📉 Stocks Plunge, S&P 500 Officially in a correction
Stocks took a nosedive Thursday as market volatility surged, fueled by economic and political uncertainty. The S&P 500 dropped 1.4%, Nasdaq slid 2%, and the Dow fell 1.3%, erasing Wednesday’s gains. With this drop, the S&P has officially entered correction territory, down 10.1% from its recent high, while the Nasdaq has tumbled 14.2% below its December peak.

🌏️ Trump’s tariffs could push U.S. allies elsewhere — including China and India
Trump’s tariff threats may be pushing U.S. allies closer to economic rivals like China and India, warns former diplomat Wendy Cutler. The EU is gearing up for counter-tariffs on $28.3 billion worth of U.S. goods in response to U.S. duties on steel and aluminum. Meanwhile, Europe is strengthening trade ties elsewhere, finalizing a major deal with Mercosur and reviving negotiations with India. The EU’s growing trade network could leave American exporters at a disadvantage compared to European competitors.

💾 Intel surges 15% on CEO appointment
Intel stock soared over 15% Thursday after naming Lip-Bu Tan as its new CEO. A chip industry veteran, Tan previously led Cadence Design Systems and now takes over from interim co-CEOs David Zinsner and Michelle Johnston Holthaus. The leadership shake-up follows the ousting of former CEO Pat Gelsinger in late 2024, with Wall Street largely welcoming the move.

🇨🇳 Donald Trump makes Chinese stocks (somewhat) great again
As Trump’s trade war fuels recession fears, global investors are turning to an unexpected safe haven, Chinese stocks. Hong Kong’s Hang Seng Index has surged 17% since Trump took office, while the S&P 500 has dropped 9%, losing $4 trillion in market value. Leading the charge are Chinese tech stocks, up 29% in 2025, hitting their highest levels in over three years.

💰️ 5 attractive stocks to buy on this dip
Market dips are a reminder that stocks don’t move in a straight line, and that the best buys are often the ones you already own. Over the past three weeks, the Dow, S&P 500, and Nasdaq have dropped 7.2%, 9.3%, and 13.1%, respectively, as valuations cool from historic highs. With the S&P 500 trading at its third-highest premium since 1871, this sell-off isn’t surprising. Despite the turbulence, some top-tier stocks are looking more attractive, especially for long-term investors. Here are 5.

US DOLLAR

Trump’s Second Term Reshapes Global Currencies

Donald Trump’s second presidency is shaking up currency markets, but not in the way investors predicted. Instead of strengthening, the U.S. dollar has weakened against most developed market currencies, except for Canada’s, amid concerns that trade tariffs are damaging the U.S. economy.

The euro has surged as Germany ramps up defense and infrastructure spending, posting its biggest weekly gain versus the dollar since 2009. Now trading around $1.09, analysts at BofA predict further gains to $1.15 by year-end. The European Central Bank’s shift away from rate cuts has also boosted investor confidence.

Meanwhile, the Japanese yen has jumped 6% this year, benefiting from rising Japanese interest rates and safe-haven demand. With Japan’s central bank considering faster rate hikes, the yen’s rally may continue, with speculators betting big on further gains.

Surprisingly, China’s yuan has remained resilient, despite Trump’s renewed tariff push. Instead of devaluing, China has maintained a stronger currency relative to its Asian trading partners, helping its exporters stay competitive.
