2. SOUNDBITE (German) Oliver Roth, capital market strategist of Oddo BHF Bank:
"The stock markets got off to a positive start this week and the trigger is clearly once again the statements made by the administration of (US President) Donald Trump, namely that there are supposed to be exemptions in tariffs on Chinese goods, consumer goods, electronic goods and above all on chips, electronic chips and this is ultimately providing a little relief. However, there are contradictory statements from the administration. Some say so, others say so and that’s why the uncertainties in the markets naturally remain."

4. SOUNDBITE (German) Oliver Roth, capital market strategist of Oddo BHF Bank:
"There are different statements within the administration and this is really a confusion that should not happen in one of the most important control centers in the world, but it is happening nonetheless and the markets are reacting not well to it. Certainly with different movements in one direction or the other. But the bottom line is that this is doing a lot of damage to market confidence."

6. SOUNDBITE (German) Oliver Roth, capital market strategist of Oddo BHF Bank:
"I don’t think Easter week is going to bring calm to the stock market because of the Christian holidays. (US President) Donald Trump will continue his way of communicating policy decisions and accordingly, we have to be prepared for not only the pre-Easter weeks but the post-Easter weeks to continue with all of this uncertainty."
