Morning Juice – Europe Session Prep

Good Morning Traders.
It is Thursday the 2nd of April. Here is what to look out for today.


Sentiment
Stocks fell and the dollar rose as markets stayed jittery after President Donald Trump warned the US would hit Iran “extremely hard” within two to three weeks, disappointing traders who had hoped for clearer signs of an end to the war. President Donald Trump said the war in Iran is “very close” to completion, even as he signaled strikes could escalate in the near term. Oil rallied after President Donald Trump said the US will hit Iran “extremely hard” over the next two to three weeks, as concerns linger about future energy flows through the vital Strait of Hormuz chokepoint. The Trump administration is preparing to outline a tiered system for its broad tariffs on steel and aluminum products in an attempt to simplify a process that has dogged American companies for months.
