Market sentiment is about to change.

Next week is critical — the global stock and crypto markets will face the collision of two major variables. If you currently hold positions, you really need to stay alert in the coming days.

**Trade Tensions Suddenly Escalate**

Over the weekend, Trump announced a 10% tariff increase on the EU, involving nearly $1.5 trillion in trade flows. A similar scale of tariff shock last October directly caused a sharp decline in US stocks and the most severe drop in the crypto market in five years. This scene could repeat now. Moreover, the EU is already seriously considering retaliatory measures. If a conflict erupts, the global trade landscape could be reshuffled. This would have a serious impact on US stocks, the dollar exchange rate, and even the overall market risk sentiment.

**Decisive Moment for the Supreme Court**

This Tuesday, the US Supreme Court will make a final ruling on the "Legal Compliance of Tariff Policies." The decision has been postponed twice, but there’s little room for further delay this time. The issue is — whatever the ruling, it could trigger a market explosion.

If the court rejects: it means the legal basis for the tariff policy is shattered, policy certainty will disappear, and the market could shift from optimism to pessimism overnight, with sharp declines.

If the court supports: the economic damage from EU retaliatory measures will truly materialize, economic growth expectations will be downgraded, and both stocks and cryptocurrencies will face selling pressure.

That’s why this week is particularly dangerous — two issues fermenting simultaneously could make market sentiment more fragile than expected.
