Volume~$46
YES chance

DescriptionThe crisis of trust between the European Union and the US, reinforced by the fact that only 11% of EU citizens consider Washington a strategic partner, is pushing European leaders toward a more aggressive economic policy. French and German industrial unions are demanding an immediate mirror response from Brussels to U.S. tariff restrictions. On the sidelines of the European Commission, a package of protective import duties on U.S. electronics and automobiles is already being actively discussed. The bet is on whether the EC will announce the official introduction of mirror trade restrictions against the US before the end of summer.
ConditionsYes: if by August 31, 2026 inclusive, the European Commission or the Council of the EU formally announces the approval and imposition of new import duties or quotas on U.S.-origin goods.No: if no official decision on duties against the U.S. is published by August 31, 2026 and the parties limit themselves to negotiations.
