ChainCatcher news, QCP released its daily market observation stating that after a week of tariff edge policies, risk assets have begun to stabilize, breaking free from barriers that could have dealt a heavy blow to Sino-U.S. trade. The U.S. has imposed tariffs as high as 145% on Chinese imports, while China retaliated with tariffs of 125%, escalating to a level where the market is no longer surprised by further intensification. The enormous scale of these tariffs makes them more symbolic than market-driven factors, contrasting sharply with the panic triggered in the early days of "Liberation Day."After Friday's close, the Trump administration quietly exempted the latest tariffs on smartphones, computers, and chips. Despite the ongoing stalemate, risk assets are pricing in optimistic sentiment, even as the U.S. seems to be negotiating not only with China but also with the bond market and itself.In the crypto market, Bitcoin's risk reversal remains biased towards bearish options until June, indicating that the market still appears somewhat cautious in the short term. However, long-term sentiment is becoming more positive. On Saturday, we observed aggressive buying of 800 contracts of BTC-27MAR26-100k-C. Bitcoin continues to consolidate in the $80,000 to $90,000 range, possibly continuing to trade sideways while adopting a "wait and see" strategy regarding the tariff situation.

ChainCatcher news, Fox Business reporter Charles Gasparino stated on social media, "The market's reaction to 'Tim Apple tariff exemption' is expected to be positive; Nasdaq could surge as the exemption also applies to Nvidia and other large tech companies.Sources indicate that politically, this move further exposes the weak arguments of U.S. Secretary of Commerce Ross and U.S. Trade Advisor Navarro—that high tariffs and other restrictions can 'magically' create jobs domestically. If that were the case, why exempt companies that rely most on foreign labor and components?Investors and CEOs generally believe that this tariff plan is one of the worst policy rollouts in recent years. They all agree that we need a new trade mechanism, and the president's criticisms are well-founded. However, it requires further study and thoughtful action, likely after tax cuts and deregulation take effect, yet the results are quite the opposite."
