Markets mixed again, “likely to remain explosively volatile”

Markets were again mixed on Wednesday.

The S&P 500 fell 0.3 percent and the Nikkei 225 plunged 1.3 percent but the STOXX Europe 600 rose 0.5 percent.

Analysts remain wary of possible continued volatility.

“Stock markets are likely to remain explosively volatile and wildly unpredictable amid the ongoing trade drama between the U.S. and China,” said Lukman Otunuga, research analyst at FXTM.
