Volatility is set to stay. Here’s where investors can put their money amid wild market swings
Many have already rushed into safer, lower-risk options such as fixed income offerings
[SINGAPORE] Amid the tariff-induced volatility globally, markets have swung wildly in recent days.
Both US and global markets plummeted to lows early this week, before rebounding slightly and falling back again on the kicking in of reciprocal Trump tariffs.
In a huge burst of buying, markets soared again on Thursday (Apr 10) as US President Donald Trump took a pause on tariffs for 90 days and temporarily lowered reciprocal tariffs. He, however, did not give any reprieve to tariffs on China goods – raising them to 125 per cent from 104 per cent.
