As we previously mentioned in the April 6th Morning Brief, investors are feeling insecure due to the upcoming meeting of U.S President Donald Trump and his Chinese counterpart Xi Jinping, two very influential leaders. It seems they intend to discuss North Korea and different trade issues.

As per the FOMC meeting minutes released overnight, the chances of a U.S fiscal stimulus seem to be fading, which is another reason for the increased uncertainty in the market. As a result, the appetite for the haven assets have increased and investors pulled out of the stock market. This is why we have seen dramatic drops in the Nikkei (from $18778 to $18523 in the Asian session alone).
