Global markets went into freefall as tariffs reignited fears of a full-blown trade war.
Bill Ackman is calling for a 90-day ceasefire on tariffs to avoid lasting economic damage.
Crypto is caught in the crossfire, with Bitcoin and XRP plummeting as panic spreads.
The Nikkei's in a spin, like all of us (Creative Commons, user Kakidai).
Nikkei, Sensex, Taiwan crash, Bitcoin gets crushed, Bill Ackman wants a timeout and Jim Cramer's "not going to panic". Welcome to
tariff tantrum week. Are we looking at another Black Monday?
When Tariffs Attack: From Sensex to the Nikkei and Beyond
If you logged into your brokerage app today and screamed, you weren’t
alone. Global markets were sucker-punched overnight as Donald Trump’s latest
round of tariffs sent a shockwave across Asia and beyond. The Sensex? Smashed.
The Nikkei? Nuked. The China stock market? Coughing up red candles like it
swallowed a firecracker.
Let’s start with the Sensex, India’s benchmark index, which
tanked 2,500 points in a single session—its biggest drop in over a year.
Traders are calling it the “Modi Meltdown,” but the real blame lies elsewhere.
Across the East China Sea, the Nikkei 225 collapsed by around
8%, its worst daily loss since the early days of COVID. And in China,
investors braced for what some financial pundits are already dubbing "Black
Monday 2.0."
China’s Ugly Monday: It’s All About Confidence (Or Lack Thereof)
Let’s zero in on China for a second, because if there’s one country
that hates losing face, it’s the one that just got hit with another round of
U.S. tariffs. Beijing announced 34% tariffs on all imports from the US and
stocks of Chinese companies listed in the US fell by 8.9% on Friday. The China
stock market opened to what local analysts are calling an “ugly
Monday,” with sectors like tech and exports taking the brunt of the damage.

Investors in Shenzhen and Shanghai are pricing in a prolonged trade
war, and the sentiment is grim. Traders are selling first, asking questions
never. Domestic confidence in the government's ability to retaliate without
blowing up the economy is dwindling fast.
And while Beijing hasn’t fired back just yet, make no mistake: a
response is coming. Whether it’s through counter-tariffs, currency devaluation,
or a strongly worded memo (written in bold font), China’s not going to sit this
one out.
And there ends our global tour, but if you’d like to Google, you’ll
find it’s happening everywhere.
Brokers Get Hit, Too
The shares of publicly traded online brokers are also taking a hit
due to the newly imposed tariffs. Taking a quick look at the numbers at the time of writing, it’s not
great reading for the likes of Robinhood (down 9.80%), NAGA (down 2.75%), XTB
(down 2.55%) and Plus 500 (down 1.14%) to name just a few.
If your business is involved in international trade, no matter the
type, it seems that Trump’s tariffs are causing absolute chaos.
Bill Ackman Calls for a Pause
Enter Bill Ackman, billionaire investor and part-time economic
lifeguard. He’s been sounding the alarm about the tariffs and is calling for a 90-day
pause to reassess the situation before the global economy gets tossed into a
blender.
Ackman warned that Trump’s tariff
policy is alienating business leaders and destabilizing markets. He didn’t
mince words either, saying the current approach will lead to “an economic
nuclear winter” and calling for a strategic timeout before this turns into a
self-inflicted recession.
The country is 100% behind the president on fixing a global system of tariffs that has disadvantaged the country. But, business is a confidence game and confidence depends on trust.
President @realDonaldTrump has elevated the tariff issue to the most important geopolitical…
Ackman’s not alone. According
to CNBC, other business leaders are quietly losing confidence in Trump’s
economic leadership. Publicly, they’re toeing the line. Privately? They’re
dusting off their crash helmets and updating their résumés for a move to
Zurich.
Bitcoin is No Safe Haven—It’s a Punching Bag
You’d think crypto would thrive in chaos, right? Wrong. Instead of
rising from the ashes like a digital phoenix, Bitcoin belly-flopped into the
trading week, plummeting
nearly 7% as Asian markets opened. According
to Bloomberg, BTC got caught in the “risk-off” firestorm and sold off with
everything else.
It gets worse. XRP shed 10% in just 24 hours, according to Investing.com,
while Binance users reported heavy liquidations and margin calls galore. Crypto
bros Tweeting "buy the dip" are now just waving a white flag.
Jim Cramer, Investment Pro and Media Personality (LinkedIn).
In the midst of the madness, everyone’s favorite Cassandra, Jim Cramer –
he of “I
feel like a sucker” fame - went on CNBC to say he's “not
going to panic.” Which is exactly what someone says right before they
panic. While that might sound comforting, it’s like saying you’re not afraid of
sharks while your foot is bleeding in the water.
According to Cramer, the fundamentals are still intact, and he’s
looking for buying opportunities. Meanwhile, the rest of Wall Street is
frantically rebalancing their portfolios and adding canned food stocks to their
watchlists.
Buckle Up, It’s Going to Get Bumpy
So here we are—smack in the middle of another Trump-induced market
tantrum. Tariffs are back on the menu, crypto is crying in a corner, and even
the big-money guys like Bill Ackman are begging for a timeout. If this is a
taste of what a second Trump term looks like, investors might want to start
practicing their deep breathing exercises—or learning how to trade from a cabin
in the woods.

Louis Parks has lived and worked in and around the Middle East for much of his professional career. He writes about the meeting of the tech and finance worlds.
In this conversation, we sit down with Drew Niv, CSO at ATFX Connect and one of the most influential figures in modern FX.
We speak about market structure, the institutional view on liquidity, and the sharp rise of prop trading, a sector Drew has been commenting on in recent months. Drew explains why he once dismissed prop trading, why his view changed, and what he now thinks the model means for brokers, clients and risk managers.
We explore subscription-fee dependency, the high reneging rate, and the long-term challenge: how brokers can build a more stable and honest version of the model. Drew also talks about the traffic advantage standalone prop firms have built and why brokers may still win in the long run if they take the right approach.

In this conversation, we speak with Aydin Bonabi, CEO and co-founder of Surveill, a firm focused on fraud detection and AI-driven compliance tools for financial institutions.
We start with Aydin’s view of the Summit and the challenges brokers face as fraud tactics grow more complex. He explains how firms can stay ahead through real-time signals, data patterns, and early-stage detection.
We also talk about AI training and why compliance teams often struggle to keep models accurate, fair, and aligned with regulatory expectations. Aydin breaks down what “good” AI training looks like inside a financial environment, including the importance of clean data, domain expertise, and human oversight.
He closes with a clear message: fraud is scaling, and so must the tools that stop it.

Interview with Jas Shah
Builder | Adviser | Fintech Writer | Product Strategist
In this episode, Jonathan Fine sat down with Jas Shah, one of the most thoughtful voices in global fintech. Known for his work across advisory, product, stablecoins, and his widely read writing, Jas brings a rare combination of industry insight and plain-spoken clarity.
We talk about his first impression of the Summit, the projects that keep him busy today, and how they connect to the stablecoin panel he joined. Jas shares his view on the link between fintech, wealthtech and retail brokers, especially as firms like Revolut, eToro and Trading212 blur long-standing lines in the market.
We also explore what stablecoin adoption might look like for retail investment platforms, including a few product and UX angles that are not obvious at first glance.
To close, Jas explains how he thinks about writing, and how he approaches “shipping” pieces that spark debate across the industry.
