On @bloomberg.com last week talking about trade deals!
Trade deals that bring tariffs down from liberation day highs are great news. They improve the outlook.

That said RELATIVE to 6 months ago tariffs are higher. Outlook weaker.

CPI inflation fell today. But it’s partly due to lower energy prices.
Going forward economists expect inflation to rise.

China places 84% tariffs on US goods.

The trade war escalates.

Stocks recover today, but not fully!

The 90 day pause of liberation day tariffs (for all except China) provides relief to global stock.

But stocks are still below levels seen prior to Liberation day. Stocks dip down again as the China/US tariff got for that continues.

US tariffs of 145% on. China means
=>trade just stops between the two economies

=> shares and bonds yields plummet again

Not a good day for European stocks.

It was an honour to appear in front of the Treasury Select Committee last week.
A key question was: how tariffs might affect the UK economy and the fiscal finances.
They also asked about how markets price fiscal risk. Answer: bond markets prefer fiscal rules to be met.

US Treasuries hit hard.

S&P has fallen by over 500 points (10%) in the last couple of days.

The chart below doesn’t include the 50% uplift to Chinese goods which was announced last night. That would take the total rise in Chinese tariffs in 2025 to 104%.

Liberation day tariffs.
1. Min 10% on all countries
2. Higher rate applies to countries listed in image below.
EU 20%
UK 10%
China 34%
Rates are 1/2 the estimated reciprocal tariff.
Based on what the countries charge as monetary and non-monetary tariffs on US goods.
April 2, 2025 at 8:57 PM
All goods to see a minimum of 10% tariff.
Some economies will see a higher rate. It will be one-half of a calculated reciprocal tariff.
The "reciprocal" tariff rate is based on a government tally of the levies and non-tariff barriers that other countries impose on US goods.

Ageing and a move away from DB to DC pensions is putting a greater burden on individuals to save for retirement.

Half and half!
Analysis of UK gilt yield moves in January show that about half the rise is mimicked by changes in the US(global). And half come from UK specific factors.
