Abstract

Emerging markets experienced significant declines due to investor concerns over US President Donald Trump's trade threats and the fading prospects of a Ukraine ceasefire. The stock index tracking developing-nation stocks dropped 2.4%, with Asian stocks being hit the hardest. Trump's announcement of further tariffs on China, along with plans for levies on imports from Mexico and Canada, raised fears of an escalating trade war, impacting global markets. Despite the recent slump, emerging-market stocks had a strong start to the year, outperforming US equities, with a focus on artificial intelligence and economic stimulus driving investor interest.
