Market movers are watching Trump's latest pivot on trade policy. Fresh off his Davos meetings with European leadership, the U.S. President revealed he's already crafted a "framework for a future deal" on Greenland—a move that's captured geopolitical attention. But here's what's moving markets: he's pumping the brakes on the tariff timeline. Those tariffs slated to kick in February 1st? Not happening on schedule. This shift matters for risk assets—trade policy uncertainty has been a persistent headwind for crypto and equities alike. The delay suggests room for negotiation ahead, which could ease some of the inflationary pressure traders have been pricing in. Whether this signals a broader pivot toward softer trade rhetoric or a strategic pause remains to be seen.

Laughing to death, dropping the ball at a critical moment, I would call this move the "Market Savior" --- Here comes the "framework negotiation" routine again, the retail investors will be celebrating for three more minutes --- Tariff delay? Wait, isn't this giving us a breathing room, or just another fake move before cutting the retail investors? --- Why is it still playing? The US President's "procrastination" is more addictive than my crypto trading --- Talking about frameworks every day, might as well say "Let's stabilize first, then see," isn't that more honest? --- Risk assets are taking a breather, should crypto enthusiasts celebrate or run away? The old foxes are all confused --- Americans: Framework first Crypto folks: I need to check if my wallet is still here
