| News: What you need to know about the markets | | | | | | | Trade tensions ease; UBS dips; Google earnings | By Ivana Kottasová
Monday, April 23rd, 4:41am | | | | 1.

The deal removes virtually all tariffs on goods, and marks a move by Mexico to reduce its reliance on trade with the United States. | | | | It also opens the door for companies in the European Union or Mexico to bid for government contracts in the other. | | | | 2. UBS dips: Shares in UBS dropped as much as 4.4% in early trade in Zurich on Monday. | | | | The bank posted earnings for the first quarter that beat forecasts, but investors focused on a weaker than expected performance by its global private wealth management division. | | | | 3. Global market overview: US stock futures were dipping lower early on Monday. | | | | European markets opened mostly down, following a negative session in Asia. | | | | The Dow Jones industrial average shed 0.8% on Friday, while the S&P 500 lost 0.9%. The Nasdaq was 1.3% lower. | | | | US crude oil futures dipped 0.8% early on Monday, trading at $68 per barrel. | | | | Before the Bell newsletter: Key market news. In your inbox.
