12. SOUNDBITE (German) Oliver Roth, capital market strategist of Oddo BHF Bank:
"The current situation of the stock markets is actually that it is assumed that Donald Trump’s threats regarding tariffs usually do not turn out to be as severe as feared and have less impact than expected. Nevertheless, it is evident that Donald Trump continues to change the rules of the game. So, while there seems to be a light at the end of the tunnel concerning tariffs, it is also clear that Donald Trump remains unpredictable. This unpredictability is now causing more significant headaches, possibly even long-term."

STORYLINE:
A German capital market strategist said U.S. President Donald Trump’s "unpredictability" is causing "significant headaches" on the financial markets.
Oliver Roth, capital market strategist of Oddo BHF Bank, said, "it is evident that Donald Trump continues to change the rules of the game."
"So, while there seems to be a light at the end of the tunnel concerning tariffs, it is also clear that Donald Trump remains unpredictable. This unpredictability is now causing more significant headaches, possibly even long-term," he added.
Trump issued an executive order Thursday night that would introduce new tariffs on many of the U.S.’ trade partners.
Trump’s order came after a flurry of tariff-related activity in recent days as the White House announced agreements with various nations and blocs, including the European Union, before a deadline set by the president for Aug. 1.
On Sunday, the U.S. and the EU agreed to a trade framework setting a 15% tariff on most goods, staving off — at least for now — far higher import duties.
Despite the deal, in early European trading Friday, Germany’s Dax fell 1.5% to 23,697.31. In Paris, the CAC 40 shed 1.6% to 7,647.56.
The future for S&P 500 was down 0.8% and that for the Dow Jones Industrial Average was also 0.8% lower
