Trump’s Trade Policy and Deregulation Drive Boost Optimism for UK Stocks

Trump’s Trade Policy and Deregulation Drive Boost Optimism for UK Stocks
ADVERTISEMENT

In a significant shift in global trade dynamics, US President Donald Trump announced plans to impose a 25% tariff on all imports from Canada and Mexico, alongside a 10% additional tariff on Chinese goods. This move marks the beginning of his new trade strategy and has far-reaching implications for global markets, including the UK.

Analysts are cautiously optimistic about the potential impact of Trump’s policies on British stocks. According to Hugh Gimber, a strategist at JPMorgan Asset Management, sectors like banking and energy, which are heavily represented in the FTSE 100, stand to benefit from Trump’s pro-deregulation stance and his favorable approach to oil production. “The UK’s market could see a boost from Trump’s policies, especially in energy and financials,” Gimber said, pointing to the potential for rising share buybacks and an uptick in merger activity.

Further, Gimber noted that the UK’s technology-light stock index makes it an attractive option for investors looking to diversify away from US tech giants. Despite the UK market’s long-standing underperformance, he believes the outlook for the FTSE 100 has never been stronger in recent years.

It’s not the first time Wall Street firms have shown renewed interest in UK equities. BlackRock, the world’s largest asset manager, has been favoring UK stocks since the Labour Party’s overwhelming election win this past summer. The firm, which manages $11.5 trillion in assets, believes the UK’s relative political stability could provide a solid foundation for market growth.

Helen Jewell, BlackRock’s Chief Investment Officer for Equities in EMEA, emphasized that the UK’s market composition—heavy on financials and services—could offer insulation against the effects of trade disputes between major global economies. “The UK’s equity market structure could shield it from the volatility expected from escalating tariff battles,” she said.

Despite these optimistic predictions, challenges remain. The FTSE 100 still trades at a significant discount compared to the US, with BlackRock estimating a 50% price gap between UK and US equities. Since the 2016 Brexit referendum, the FTSE 100 has gained around 31%, compared to a staggering 183% rise in the S&P 500.

Pictet, a major European asset manager, remains more cautious, warning that UK stocks may be in a “value trap.” Luca Paolini, Pictet’s Chief Investment Officer, argued that the UK’s position in the global market remains weak, with US assets still dominating investor preferences. “At the moment, it’s hard to find compelling investment opportunities outside of US markets,” Paolini remarked.

As global markets react to Trump’s aggressive trade policies and the shifting political landscape, investors will be closely watching the UK’s ability to weather the storm while benefiting from emerging opportunities in deregulation and sector-specific growth.
