Key Points

  • Tesla's stock plunged over 12 percent due to rumors of Elon Musk stepping down, renewed tariffs by Donald Trump, and lower-than-expected delivery numbers for Q1 2025.
  • Global government debt markets saw a significant sell-off in March, with Germany's 10-year Bund yields rising sharply and U.S. Treasury yields edging up, reflecting inflationary concerns and potential interest rate hikes.
  • Japan and South Korea are negotiating lower tariffs with the United States to mitigate the economic impact of new trade measures imposed by former President Donald Trump, rather than opting for retaliatory actions.
