Global equity futures turned positive on November 1 as investors anticipated potential easing in U.S.-China tariff escalation following recent market turbulence. Wall Street benchmarks reflected cautious optimism after President Trump’s 100% tariff announcement triggered earlier selloffs. Analysts noted mixed signals from commodities and currency pairs, suggesting traders are pricing a temporary pause in trade policy shocks. The rebound remains fragile, with institutional sentiment still guided by global manufacturing data and policy statements expected through early November. Broader equity appetite showed mild recovery led by technology and energy segments.
