Amidst market unease over the unpredictable tariff policies of Trump,Download mt4 mobile version for Android Blackstone Group President Jon Gray issued a warning, advising investors not to make "knee-jerk reactions" to short-term policy fluctuations. He emphasized the importance of patience, carefully observing policy directions, and making long-term investment decisions.
Gray made these remarks at the Asia-Pacific Finance and Innovation Seminar held in Melbourne, Australia. He noted that Trump is altering tariff directions almost daily, and the market remains anxious about the potential economic impact of the trade war. Facing such a tariff "fiasco," he suggested investors think and plan from a more macro and long-term perspective.
"In such times, the danger is focusing too much on short-term turbulence and ignoring long-term opportunities," Gray said.
Trump recently announced new tariff measures for industries including automotive, pharmaceuticals, timber, and semiconductors. Auto tariffs might be announced first before the "reciprocal tariffs" policy formally takes effect on April 2. He also hinted that some countries might receive a "breathing space," enjoying tariff exemptions under the so-called "reciprocal" conditions.
However, the tariff policy remains in frequent flux, with specific implementation details yet unclear. Gray pointed out, "You have to take a step back and look at the issues. The government might make concessions or shift directions, and the situation will keep evolving."
Despite the uncertainty, Gray is not pessimistic about the overall future economic outlook. He believes the current market environment is more rational than during the 2000 internet bubble, the eve of the 2007 financial crisis, and the overly optimistic period of 2021. "We are now in a relatively reasonably priced phase, suitable for steady investments in infrastructure, real estate, and private equity," he said.
Gray emphasized that a more cautious market environment might be healthier than times filled with excessive confidence and could be more appealing to long-term investors.
