Things are looking up after the US and China de-escalated their trade war, but is the global economy off the hook? In the latest episode of The Weekly Briefing from Capital Economics, Group Chief Economist Neil Shearing tells David Wilder why the tariff situation is looking brighter, but also identifies the key flashpoints to watch in the coming weeks. John Higgins, our Chief Markets Economist, is also on the show to talk about the financial markets angle to this turnaround in global sentiment. He sees more upside for US equities, even after the notable gains of recent weeks, and isn't convinced that investors have set themselves up for a fall. Plus, following the launch of our ‘Future of Europe' series, Franziska Palmas discuss how Germany's economic outlook is looking a bit more optimistic, but also why the bloc's biggest economy will continue to struggle – and what that means for boosters of the idea of the EU becoming a third geo-economic pillar alongside the US and China.

China y Estados Unidos iniciaron este miércoles 14 de mayo una tregua comercial de tres meses, en la que se acordó que rebajarán en 115 puntos porcentuales los aranceles cruzados de las últimas semanas. La escalada arancelaria se produjo en medio de las presiones de Donald Trump y las medidas recíprocas tomadas por Xi Jinping. Con esta tregua, ¿quién pierde el pulso? Beijing y Washington anunciaron un acuerdo para rebajar mutuamente los aranceles impuestos en las últimas semanas.De esa forma, y por 90 días, China reducirá del 125% al 10% los aranceles sobre productos estadounidenses; mientras que EE. UU. los bajará del 145% al 30% para los bienes chinos.El pacto, que da un respiro al comercio global y las economías de las dos potencias, tiene lugar en medio de una guerra arancelaria emprendida por Donald Trump.Aunque, tradicionalmente, el tema comercial ha servido como principal factor disuasorio para evitar otros conflictos entre estos dos grandes rivales, la escalada de las últimas semanas ha disparado el nerviosismo de los mercados y presionado al comercio global. Aunque la reacción de Beijing ha sido discreta, analistas consideran que la economía china ha sacado ventaja de la guerra arancelaria."La retirada de aranceles supone una clara reivindicación de la postura calculada y proporcionada de Beijing a la hora de responder a las acciones comerciales de la Administración Trump", según un informe de la firma de análisis Trivium China.En contraste, según el economista jefe para Asia de la consultora británica Capital Economics, Mark Williams, la tregua “es otro paso atrás en la postura agresiva de la Administración Trump”, especialmente porque el Gobierno de Xi se ha mantenido firme, sin ceder a las demandas de Washington. Leer tambiénTregua comercial entre China y EE. UU. impulsa al yuan y mercados, pero persiste cautela entre inversores La gran pregunta es qué hay detrás del acuerdo para reducir los aranceles.¿Por qué la Casa Blanca ablandó su discurso? ¿Qué tanto aprovechó China para redoblar sus vínculos comerciales con otros países? Para analizar el tema, participan en El Debate dos invitados.- Desde Santiago, Andrés Bórquez, investigador de El Núcleo Milenio sobre Impactos de China en América Latina.- En Lima, Carlos Aquino, director del Centro de Estudios Asiáticos y docente de Economía Asiática en la Universidad Nacional San Marcos.

One deal down. Many, many more to go. Except there was less to that much-touted US-UK trade deal than either government is suggesting and far tougher US talks with China and the EU are still to come.In this week's episode of The Weekly Briefing from Capital Economics, Group Chief Economist Neil Shearing and Head of China Economics Julian Evans-Pritchard unpack what was actually agreed between the US and UK, and look ahead to this weekend's pivotal US-China negotiations in Switzerland.Julian discusses the outlook for China's exports following their remarkable post-pandemic surge and considers what further stimulus measures might be on the cards. Neil assesses the broader state of global trade ahead of the looming expiration of Donald Trump's 90-day reciprocal tariff pause.Neil also offers a preview of our major upcoming series on the future of Europe – an in-depth project that cuts through the recent optimism to deliver clear-headed analysis, robust data, and compelling presentations.Events and analysis referenced in this episodeThe Future of EuropeData: Tariff Impact ModelData: China Labour Market Indicator

If you're looking for evidence of the negative hit from Donald Trump's tariffs, you'll struggle to find it in the hard data. Group Chief Economist Neil Shearing is on The Weekly Briefing from Capital Economics minutes after the release of the US employment report for April to talk about how economies have been holding up in the weeks since the ‘Liberation Day' announcement. In his conversation with David Wilder, he addresses the key issues of the moment, including:What Q1 US GDP data and port data aren't telling us about the negative hit to impact on economies from tariffs;Whether markets have become too complacent about the tariffs impact;How the tariffs threat will influence the Federal Reserve and Bank of England at their meetings in the coming week.Plus, ahead of a key OPEC+ meeting on Monday, David Oxley and Olivia Cross from our Commodities & Climate desk talk about what recent signals from Saudi officials could mean for already-weak oil prices.

Another rollercoaster week in Trumpland wound down with markets buoyant on reports of more White House softening in its approach to tariffs and China taking steps to ease restrictions on some US imports. But are things really looking up? And, if so, why hasn't the dollar bounced with equities?Group Chief Economist Neil Shearing and Jonas Goltermann, our Deputy Chief Markets Economist, are on The Weekly Briefing from Capital Economics to assess whether there has been a fundamental improvement in the outlook, or if this is a case of investors smoking too much “hopium”. In a wide ranging chat, they discuss:What the latest economic data suggest about the impact of higher tariffs;The chances that the US and China engage enough to get a deal done;Whether King Dollar could be overthrown – and the risks of a dollar crash. Events and analysis referenced in this episodeRecording: Is the dollar's global dominance a casualty of tariff chaos?https://www.capitaleconomics.com/events/drop-dollars-global-dominance-casualty-tariff-chaosANZ Drop-In: Australia's election, RBA easing and the economic outlookhttps://www.capitaleconomics.com/events/anz-drop-australias-election-rba-easing-and-economic-outlookDrop-In: 100 Days In – The economic impact of Trump's second term so farhttps://www.capitaleconomics.com/events/drop-100-days-economic-impact-trumps-second-term-so-far

Neil Shearing has been in back-to-back meetings with global institutions who – like everyone – are trying to make sense of Trump's chaotic trade policy roll-out, not least the recent decision to pause "reciprocal" tariffs for 90 days. The Group Chief Economist at Capital Economics joins the latest episode of The Weekly Briefing to address some of the questions that have kept coming up in those sit-downs with clients, including:What the global trading picture might look like when the 90-day tariffs “pause” endsWhy we think US growth risks have risen but we still don't expect a recession How the Federal Reserve will play slower growth with higher inflationWhat curbs on Nvidia chips tells us about decision-making amid Trumpian uncertainty If there's a US-China trade deal to be doneAnalysis referenced in this episode:Read: Will tariffs drive a flood of Chinese exports elsewhere?https://www.capitaleconomics.com/publications/global-economics-focus/will-tariffs-drive-flood-chinese-exports-elsewhereRead: Is China offloading its dollar assets?https://www.capitaleconomics.com/publications/china-economics-focus/china-offloading-its-dollar-assetsData: Tariff Impact Model (TIM)https://www.capitaleconomics.com/data-and-charts/tariff-impact-modelRead: US Outlook - Scaled-back tariffs not an existential threathttps://www.capitaleconomics.com/publications/us-economic-outlook/scaled-back-tariffs-not-existential-threatRead: ECB Policy Announcement (April 2025)https://www.capitaleconomics.com/publications/europe-rapid-response/ecb-policy-announcement-april-2025

As the dust settles after another of week of dramatic policy shifts, the picture that has emerged is a familiar one from Trump's first term: China is the main target after all. China isn't taking Trump's tariffs lying down. Instead, it has hit back tariff for tariff so that both sides are now applying tariffs to each others' goods of well above 100%. In this week's episode, Group Chief Economist Neil Shearing asks Mark Williams, our Chief Asia Economist, why China is adopting a more combative approach to Donald Trump than other countries and what that suggests about the future of the relationship. Chief Global Economist Jennifer McKeown offers some scenarios for what might happen next with tariffs and their impact on growth across the global economy. And the team cast their eyes further ahead to discuss whether the tumult of the last couple of weeks may end up accelerating the fracturing of the global economy into US and China-aligned blocs or instead drive more former US allies closer to China.  Events and analysis referenced in this podcast:Read: Mapping out trade war scenariosMapping out trade war scenarios | Capital EconomicsRead: China and US still in an escalatory loopChina and US still in an escalatory loop | Capital EconomicsMeet: TIM - the Capital Economics Tariff Impact Model Tariff Impact Model | Capital EconomicsWatch: The escalating trade war and its economic and market effectsDrop-In: The escalating trade war and its economic and market effects | Capital Economics

« Chiến đấu đến cùng » khi bị tấn công, « đáp trả tương xứng thuế đối ứng » của Mỹ và áp dụng đúng phương pháp của Washington để bảo vệ quyền lợi : Trung Quốc đã chọn giải pháp đối đầu trong cuộc chiến thuế quan với chính quyền Trump. Trong chưa đầy một tuần lễ, Trung Quốc chuyển từ « thế thủ » sang « thế công ». Trên nguyên tắc, kể từ 0 giờ ngày 10/04/2025 hàng Mỹ nhập khẩu vào Hoa Lục bị đánh thuế 34 % « tương tự » như hàng « made in China » bán sang Hoa Kỳ.Chỉ 48 giờ sau màn trình diễn của Donald Trump ở Nhà Trắng, mở màn một cuộc chiến thương mại với toàn cầu, tại Bắc Kinh bộ Thương Mại « đáp lễ » bằng hàng rào quan thuế. Trung Quốc cho mở điều tra nhắm vào hơn một chục doanh nghiệp Mỹ và hạn chế xuất khẩu 7 kim loại hiếm thiết yếu cho công nghệ cao và thiết bị điện tử trong dự án sản xuất chiến đấu cơ đời mới F-47 vừa được Washington rầm rộ loan báo.Sau một dịp nghỉ cuối tuần dài ngày, quay lại thủ đô Washington tổng thống Hoa Kỳ nổi đóa thấy Bắc Kinh chọn giải pháp đối đầu. Donald Trump chỉ trích Trung Quốc đi « nhầm đường » và đòi tăng thêm 50 % thuế hải quan nhắm vào hàng « made in China », bên cạnh mức thuế 54 % sắp bị áp dụng từ 0 giờ ngày 09/04, theo giờ của Washington. Lập tức Bắc Kinh khẳng định « trong tư thế sẵn sàng, quyết đấu đến cùng ».Trung Quốc « de-risking » với Mỹ Cơ quan tư vấn Capital Economics, trụ sở tại Luân Đôn đánh giá, lãnh đạo Trung Quốc nhận thấy rằng « kinh tế nước này đủ vững chắc để cưỡng lại mọi thủ đoạn của Donald Trump ».Bên cạnh những lập luận mang tính tuyên truyền, giới tài chính đồng loạt cho rằng, « Trung Quốc đã rút kinh nghiệm từ cuộc chiến thương mại lần trước với chính quyền Trump và có những bước chuẩn bị kỹ hơn ».Kế hoạch Made in China 2025 của chủ tịch Tập Cận Bình đã đem lại những kết quả cụ thể : Trung Quốc dẫn đầu một số lĩnh vực công nghệ mới, không chỉ là « công xưởng sản xuất hàng rẻ » mà đã trực tiếp cạnh tranh với các đối thủ ở Hoa Kỳ từ ô tô điện đến trí tuệ nhân tạo. Công cụ thông minh DeepSeek made in China đã khiến thế giới công nghệ ở Thung Lũng Silicon choáng váng.Trong lĩnh vực vệ tinh không gian, tháng 11/2024 Brazil đã ký hợp đồng với Qiafan, một công ty khởi nghiệp « vô danh » lấn sân của Elon Musk cung cấp các dịch vụ vệ tinh  Về công nghệ bán dẫn, Trung Quốc cũng không còn hoàn toàn lệ thuộc vào các nhà cung cấp phương Tây. Trong số các nhà sản xuất máy bay dân sự, Airbus của châu Âu và Boeing của Mỹ không còn trong thế độc quyền từ khi dòng Comac C919 của Trung Quốc bắt đầu xuất hiện… Một điểm khác nữa cho phép ông Tập Cận Bình tự tin lao vào cuộc đọ sức với Washington : Nhà cung cấp thiết bị viễn thông Hoa Vi vẫn tồn tại và thịnh vượng đó là trước các đòn trừng phạt liên tiếp của hai đời tổng thống Mỹ, Donald Trump và Joe Biden.Thị phần của Mỹ với Trung Quốc bị thu hẹpĐành rằng Trung Quốc vẫn là đối tác thương mại quan trọng thứ ba của Hoa Kỳ sau Mêhicô và Canada, nhưng nếu như hồi 2017, hơn 20 % kim ngạch xuất khẩu của Trung Quốc đổ về Mỹ, nay tỷ lệ  đó rơi xuống còn chưa đầy 15 % theo các số liệu của Hải Quan Trung Quốc được tuần báo Anh The Economist trích dẫn. Nói cách khác về xuất nhập khẩu Trung Quốc ít lệ thuộc hơn vào Mỹ so với 8 năm về trước.Báo Nhật Nikkei Asia trích lời bà Vương Đan, giám đốc công ty tư vấn Eurasia Group trụ sở tại Singapour, hồi 2017 « tổng kim ngạch xuất khẩu của Trung Quốc sang Hoa Kỳ chiếm khoảng 4 % GDP, nay tỷ lệ này chỉ còn là 3 % ».  Ngoài ra, để tiếp tục thâm nhập thị trường Mỹ, Bắc Kinh đã khai thác chiến lược « Trung Quốc +1 » qua một sô trung gian như Ấn Độ, hay Việt Nam và nhất là Mêhicô... Trong các khoản giao dịch hàng hóa Mỹ-Trung, cho đến hiện tại, Trung Quốc chủ yếu mua vào nông phẩm và năng lượng của Hoa Kỳ. Trước mắt, về dầu khí Bắc Kinh có thể trông cậy vào Nga. Về nông phẩm, ngũ cốc, Brazil và Achentina đã thu hẹp thị phần của các nông gia Hoa Kỳ, những thành phần cử tri ủng hộ Donald Trump.Đất hiếm, tiền tệ, công cụ pháp lý : những loại vũ khí trong tay Trung Quốc Kinh nghiệm từ « cuộc thương chiến lần thứ nhất » cũng do chính quyền Trump khởi động hồi 2018-2019 Trung Quốc đã tăng tốc chiến lược « tách rời khỏi » Hoa Kỳ cả về công nghệ lẫn thương mại. Và đó cũng là điểm khởi đầu cho phép nền kinh tế thứ hai toàn cầu không hề mặc cảm khi phải đương đầu với siêu cường số 1 thế giới. Do vậy Trung Quốc chuyển từ thế « thủ » sang thế tấn công ».Mỹ phụ thuộc vào đất hiếm để sản xuất các vật dụng kết nối, điện ô tô điện, vũ khí, vệ tinh... Do vậy, trong số các đòn đáp trả Donald Trump « Giải Phóng » Hoa Kỳ, Bắc Kinh đã loan báo thông báo « hạn chế » xuất khẩu 7 kim loại hiếm sang Mỹ.Một công cụ khác trong tay Bắc Kinh là phá giá đồng tiền quốc gia để hàng Trung Quốc xuất khẩu sang Mỹ vẫn hấp dẫn. Ngân Hàng Trung Ương đang hướng tới giải pháp này.Thế rồi Trung Quốc cũng dùng lá bài « an ninh quốc gia » để điều tra các tập đoàn Mỹ xuất khẩu một số mặt hàng « lưỡng dụng » sang Hoa Lục, cũng khai thác công cụ pháp lý « chống cạnh tranh bất bình đẳng » để trừng phạt các doanh nghiệp của Hoa Kỳ. Điều đó không cấm cản các giới chức Bắc Kinh vẫn khẳng định Trung Quốc là một « mảnh đất màu mỡ cho các nhà đầu tư quốc tế »Chiến tranh tâm lý Vào lúc tại Hoa Kỳ, giới đầu tư « nhốn nháo » vì chính sách thuế quan của Donald Trump, nhiều nhà tỷ phú hàng đầu (Bill Ackmann, Larry Fink ..), những người từng ủng hộ ông Trump trong cuộc tranh cử tổng thống 2024 kêu gọi Washington « dừng tay » thì thứ trưởng Thương Mại Trung Quốc tiếp đại diện nhiều tập đoàn Mỹ như của hãng xe Tesla hay tập đoàn bảo hiểm GE Healthcare…Ông Lăng Kích (Ling Jie) đưa ra thông điệp : Trung Quốc là « điểm đầu tư lý tưởng, an toàn và đầy hứa hẹn  với các tập đoàn nước ngoài, với các doanh nghiệp của Mỹ ». So với thời điểm hôm 20/01/2025, ngày ông tổng thống Trump nhậm chức, 180 tỷ đô la tài sản của ba doanh nhân Mỹ giàu nhất hành tinh đã tan thành mây khói. Cổ phiếu của tập đoàn Apple mất giá trong nhiều phiên giao dịch liên tiếp từ khi Nhà Trắng loan báo áp thuế 34 % hàng từ Trung Quốc nhập khẩu sang Hoa Kỳ, do 85 % các sản phẩm mang nhãn hiệu quả táo do nhân công Trung Quốc tạo ra để cung phục vụ các khách hàng Mỹ. Cũng chính vì biện pháp thuế sắp tới của tổng thống Trump mà dân Mỹ đua nhau sắm điện thoại thông minh trước khi giá mỗi chiếc iPhone trên thị trường đắt thêm từ 200 đến 300 đô la.Vỏ quýt dầy, móng tay nhọn Song bên cạnh những tuyên bố mạnh mẽ cả từ phía Bắc Kinh lẫn Washington, thực tế không thể chối cãi là tổng thống Mỹ đã mở một cuộc thương chiến với toàn cầu Trung Quốc là mục tiêu chính bị nhắm tới. Thiệt hại đầu tiên hết và nghiêm trọng nhất đè nặng lên hai nước liên quan. Nhà Trung Quốc học Valérie Niquet, thuộc Quỹ Nghiên Cứu Chiến Lược của Pháp nhấn mạnh đến điểm kẹt của Bắc Kinh trong cuộc đọ sức này :« Từ lâu nay ai cũng biết Trung Quốc bị thiệt hai nhiều trong cuộc đọ sức với Hoa Kỳ. Tập Cận Bình và những người tiền nhiệm đã đề ra mục tiêu điều chỉnh lại và lấy lại cân bằng trong mô hình phát triển, để cỗ máy sản xuất ít ngốn năng lượng hơn, để tiêu thụ nội địa là lực đẩy cho tăng trưởng của Trung Quốc. Nhưng từ đó đến nay, Bắc Kinh vẫn chưa thực hiện được mục tiêu này. Trung Quốc kỳ vọng bơt bị phụ thuộc vào xuất khẩu nhưng cho đến hiện tại thì xuất khẩu vẫn là đầu tàu kinh tế và Trung Quốc phụ thuộc nhiều hơn vào các thị trường nước ngoài, nhất là hai thị trường phát triển nhất là Mỹ và châu Âu. Nếu Hoa Kỳ đóng cửa thị trường, thì tác động đầu tiên đè năng lên người tiêu dùng ở Mỹ nhưng Trung Quốc cũng bị vạ lây »Nguy cơ bấn ổn nội địa Trung Quốc Cuộc chiến thương mại phiên bản 2 của ông Trump nổ ra vào lúc kinh tế Trung Quốc vẫn chưa phục hồi sau đại dịch COVID 19 và chưa thoát khỏi khủng hoảng địa ốc kéo dài. Valérie Niquet :« Chiến tranh kinh tế gia tăng cường độ giữa hai siêu cường thế giới này đã bắt đầu dẫn tới những hệ quả đối với toàn cầu chứ không chỉ giới hạn ở Hoa Kỳ và Trung Quốc. Bắc Kinh đã có các biện pháp trả đũa : áp thuế 34 % lên tất cả các mặt hàng Mỹ như đã loan báo. Tuy nhiên nếu chúng ta nhìn vào các sản phẩm của Trung Quốc bán sang Hoa Kỳ thì tổng cộng hàng Trung Quốc bị đánh thuế hải quan hơn 60 %. Không mấy khi tôi bênh vực cho Trung Quốc, nhưng phải công nhận rằng, mức thuế này là quá nặng và bị tung ra vào thời điểm bất lợi cho Trung Quốc. Kinh tế nước này đang đình đốn và từ nhiều năm qua, Trung Quốc vẫn chưa hoàn thành mục tiêu tăng tiêu thụ nội địa để bớt phụ thuộc vào xuất khẩu như vừa nói. Thành thử quyết định của Washington tuần trước, có nguy cơ gây bất ổn trong xã hội Trung Quốc và nguy cơ này là rất, rất lớn » .Tác động đối với Trung Quốc cũng sẽ mạnh hơn so với cuộc chiến thương mại hồi 2018-2019 do Hoa Kỳ cũng đã rút kinh nghiệm trong thương lượng với Bắc Kinh. Trong kế hoạch thuế quan lần này, châu Á là khu vực bị đánh nặng nhất. François Monnier, tổng biên tập tuần báo Investir chuyên về đầu tư :« Chúng ta thấy rõ mục tiêu của Donald Trump là để chuẩn bị cho một cuộc đối đầu với Trung Quốc. Chính vì thế mà Washington đánh thuế rất nặng vào các nước châu Á : Trung Quốc bị 34 % nhưng các nước châu Á khác cũng chịu mức thuế rất cao, tránh để Bắc Kinh sử dụng lại chiến lược Trung Quốc + 1, tức là di dời sản xuất sang các quốc gia chung quanh. Chúng ta thấy Việt Nam bị đánh thuế 46 %. Ở nhiệm kỳ đầu chính quyền Trump đã phạm phải sai lầm chỉ tập trung vào Trung Quốc và do vậy mà các doanh nghiệp nước này chuyển hướng đầu tư sang Việt Nam để từ Việt Nam, xuất khẩu sang Hoa Kỳ. Lần này chúng ta thấy Mỹ tấn công một cách toàn diện vào châu Á ». Ngày 30/03/2025 các quan chức cao cấp ba nước Trung Quốc, Hàn Quốc và Nhật Bản, ba nhà vô địch về xuất khẩu của châu Á họp tại Seoul và bàn về kế hoạch « hợp tác », hướng tới một « khu vực tự do mậu dịch » ba bên. Như thể dưới tác động của « trận bão » mang tên Trump, Tokyo, Bắc Kinh và Seoul tạm gạt sang một bên các bất đồng để cứu nguy kinh tế.Cũng dưới tác động của « Ngày Giải Phóng », Washington tạo cơ hội để Liên Hiệp Châu Âu và Trung Quốc tìm được một sân chơi chung. Thủ tướng Lý Cường và chủ tịch Ủy Ban Châu Âu, Ursula Von der Leyen trong cuộc điện đàm hôm 08/04 đã nhấn mạnh đến « trách nhiệm của Liên Âu tránh gây thêm căng thẳng thương mại toàn cầu ». Đây cũng có thể là cơ hội để làm sống lại thỏa thuận đầu tư mà Bruxelles và Bắc Kinh đã ký vội vào cuối 2020 nhưng từ đó đến này hoàn toàn bị lãng quên.  Sau cùng như báo The Economist nhận định chính sách thuế quan của ông Trump đẩy lạm phát ở Hoa Kỳ lên cao, dân Mỹ càng khó cai nghiện « hàng rẻ Trung Quốc »Nhưng Trung Quốc ý thức rằng, chiến tranh thương mại Washington khai mào có sức công phá rất lớn nếu như Donald Trump hủy hoại kinh tế Hoa Kỳ. Nền kinh tế số 1 thế giới bị đình đốn hay suy thoái thì sẽ là « một thảm họa » với hàng ngàn, hàng chục ngàn công ty Trung Quốc gia công cho các hãng của Mỹ. Các nhà xuất khẩu Trung Quốc cũng bị kéo vào vòng xoáy khủng hoảng vì cho đến nay chưa một thị trường nào trên thế giới, kể cả tại 27 nước Liên Âu có được sức mua mạnh như của 350 triệu dân Mỹ.

La guerra dei dazi entra nel vivo e manda a tappeto i mercati europei. La risposta cinese alle tariffe imposte da Donald Trump - con sovrattasse del 34% su tutti i beni Usa - ha infatti alzato la temperatura dello scontro commerciale. Ad acuire i timori di escalation c'è poi il fatto che il presidente americano non è arrivato alcun passo indietro («le mie politiche non cambieranno mai», ha scritto sul social Truth), nemmeno dopo la seconda giornata di forti cali registrata a Wall Street. Così, le Borse del Vecchio Continente, non solo non recuperano le forti perdite della vigilia, ma segnano tutte perdite attorno ai 4 punti percentuali. Maglia nera è Milano che, con un passivo del 6,5%, azzera quasi completamente i guadagni da inizio anno, mandando in fumo 47 miliardi di euro. «La risposta della Cina ai dazi statunitensi è aggressiva e rende altamente improbabile un accordo a breve termine" con gli Usa, spiega Capital Economics riassumendo gli umori di giornata sui mercati, con il Dragone che sembra credere che la sua economia sia "sufficientemente forte per resistere a qualsiasi attacco di Trump».La Borsa di Milano ha perso il 6,53% arretrando a 34.649 puntiHanno commentato la giornata sui mercati Peter Cardillo, Chief Market Economist per Spartan Capital Securities, Giulio Tremonti, deputato e presidente della commissione Affari esteri ed europei della Camera e Giulio Sapelli dell'Università Statale Milano.

At the end of one of Lenin's “weeks when decades happen”, senior economists from Capital Economics briefed clients on the implications of the news that China is retaliating aggressively to Donald Trump's reciprocal tariffs plan, including whether Europe could follow suit and how much more pain is in store for markets. In this edited extract from that briefing, Neil Shearing, Mark Williams, Andrew Kenningham and Jonas Goltermann tackle everything from what China has just done to why the dollar has been acting strangely to what could push Brussels to fight back hard against the White House's reciprocal tariffs.Events and analysis referenced in this podcast:Watch: Trump's reciprocal tariffs – China retaliates and the market's responsehttps://www.capitaleconomics.com/events/drop-trumps-reciprocal-tariffs-china-retaliates-and-markets-responseRead: China hits back, hardhttps://www.capitaleconomics.com/publications/china-economics-update/china-hits-back-hardRead: Answering your questions about Liberation Day tariffshttps://www.capitaleconomics.com/publications/global-economics-update/answering-your-questions-about-liberation-day-tariffs

On Monday, the White House launched a review of its $9 billion in federal funding—weeks after stripping Columbia University of $400 million. Harvard's new president, Alan Garber, has acted swiftly: dismissing Middle Eastern Studies leaders, cutting ties with a West Bank university, and reinforcing academic diversity guidelines. Critics say it's not enough. Former Harvard President Larry Summers accused the school of ignoring Israeli perspectives, while faculty worry Garber is caving to political pressure. Princeton, too, is caught in the crossfire, with Trump pausing dozens of its research grants. Princeton's president calls it “the greatest threat to American universities since the Red Scare.” Garber warns that losing federal funds could cripple research, but with Trump's task force investigating multiple institutions, the battle is far from over. India Eyes Bigger Green Bond Target India is considering increasing its ₹25,342 crore sovereign green bond issuance for FY26, riding on investor interest. Green bonds, which fund renewable energy and climate projects, currently see a 2-3 basis point premium (“greenium”) over regular bonds in India, lower than the 3-8 points seen in developed markets. Officials expect higher returns this year amid global shifts towards sustainable finance. However, if investor demand falls short, the government may scale back. Since 2022, India has issued ₹58,000 crore in green bonds to support its 500 GW non-fossil fuel energy target by 2030. The coming months will determine investor appetite and the country's green finance trajectory. Manufacturing Rebounds, But Trade Risks Loom India's manufacturing sector rebounded in March, with the HSBC PMI hitting 58.1—its highest in eight months—driven by surging new orders. Strong demand and marketing efforts fueled the recovery, but concerns over potential US tariffs linger. President Trump is set to announce new trade measures on April 2, raising fears of weakened exports. A 20% tariff hike could shave 0.4% off India's GDP, according to Capital Economics. Inflation is also rising, with higher costs for copper, electronics, and rubber. The RBI, meeting April 7-9, may cut rates to support growth, but with Q4 GDP tracking at 6.7%, below its 6.5% target, economic uncertainty remains. IPL Drives Food Delivery Boom The IPL season is fueling a surge in food orders, with fast-food chains cashing in. Domino's sees no sign of demand slowing, doubling down on promotions like its six-in-one pizza. Streaming and TV viewership are soaring—JioHotstar reported a 40% spike in digital engagement, while TV audiences hit 253 million in the first three matches. Rebel Foods, which runs Wendy's and Oven Story, increased marketing spend by 10-20%, banking on the cricket frenzy. Last year, IPL-driven sales jumped 60-70%, and brands expect another blockbuster season despite broader economic concerns.

There's a “whiff of stagflation” around the US economy – and that's even before Donald Trump rolls out his reciprocal tariffs plan. Group Chief Economist Neil Shearing hops off a plane from New York and onto The Weekly Briefing from Capital Economics to give his take on the latest US consumption and price data, to preview March payrolls and to talk about what this all means for the US and global macro outlook. He's joined by Jonas Goltermann, our Deputy Chief Markets Economist, who explains what all of this means for US markets exceptionalism.Also on this week's episode, our China Activity Proxy is our long-running proprietary read of what's really happening with Chinese economic activity.

No podcast ‘Notícia No Seu Tempo’, confira em áudio as principais notícias da edição impressa do jornal ‘O Estado de S.Paulo’ desta sexta-feira (14/02/2025): O presidente Donald Trump assinou memorando com objetivo de criar taxas para as importações americanas, provenientes de todos os países, com as mesmas tarifas que são cobradas de exportadores dos EUA. A decisão aumentou os temores de que se deflagre uma guerra comercial global. A Casa Branca citou como exemplo de disparidade tarifária o etanol brasileiro. Conforme a Casa Branca, a tarifa dos EUA sobre o etanol é de 2,5%, enquanto o Brasil impõe 18%. Consultoria americana diz que Brasil e Índia seriam os países mais afetados pela medida. As novas tarifas serão impostas país por país, após estudo, e devem entrar em vigor em 2 de abril.

Donald Trump ended weeks of speculation on Saturday with the formal announcement of 25% tariffs on Canada and Mexico, and 10% on China. As those countries respond, Group Chief Economist Neil Shearing joins David Wilder on this special episode of The Weekly Briefing from Capital Economics to talk about whether this marks the beginning of a global trade war. Neil addresses the immediate economic threats to Canada and Mexico, but also explains why these tariffs end the chance of any more rate cuts from the Fed. He also discusses what further action Trump could take against US trade partners – not least China – and the broader risks to the global trading environment. For more on the Trump policy agenda and its macro implications, see this dedicated page:https://www.capitaleconomics.com/key-issues/trumps-second-term

Donald Trump unsurprisingly dominated the news cycle in his first week back in office. To make sense of some of what the president has pledged, threatened and suggested so far, Group Chief Economist Neil Shearing was on The Weekly Briefing from Capital Economics to discuss what we know about tariffs, how global central banks are meant to navigate this more uncertain new environment and whether the Fed is in for a particularly contentious relationship with the White House. Plus, the new president has already made a big splash in oil markets, including an Inauguration Day pledge to “drill baby, drill” and a call for Saudi Arabia to lower prices. David Oxley, Kieran Tompkins, Olivia Cross and Hamad Hussain from our Commodities and Climate team address the issues that Trump has raised around oil and explain why downside risks to prices have just grown.

Group Chief Economist Neil Shearing calls in from Singapore to The Weekly Briefing from Capital Economics to talk about what's known and unknown about Donald Trump's policy agenda just days before he is sworn in again. He discusses the tone set by Trump's first inaugural address, what we've learned from recent confirmation hearings and the inflation impact of a gradual rise in tariffs. Neil also talks about why our China Activity Proxy is telling a different story from official Chinese GDP data and explains why the UK has so much potential in the AI revolution.Also on the show, fresh from his team being named most accurate forecaster of major global stock indices by LSEG Data & Analytics for a second straight year, Chief Markets Economist John Higgins talks about why we expect 2025 to be another strong year for US equities.

Israel's economy has been hit by the 15-month-long war in Gaza, and its military spending has gone up significantly, according to the economic researchers at Capital Economics. We will be speaking to one of the economic analysts who did the research. The former Bank of Canada governor, Mark Carney, says he is running to replace Justin Trudeau as the leader of Canada's governing Liberal Party. Casting himself as an outsider with strong economic credentials, he distanced himself from the prime minister's unpopular government. And, we will look at who's planning a trip to North Korea during the northern hemisphere holiday. The country has reopened one of its border cities to foreign tourists for the first time in five years.

Tech off track for the week Bitcoin stampede finally slows. Eco data – humming along and the Fed is starting to change its tune. Guest: Jonathan Petersen, Variant Perception  NEW! DOWNLOAD THE AI GENERATED SHOW NOTES "Fiscal Sisyphus" is a term used to describe a situation where fiscal policy supports growth despite economic "gravity" dragging it down. The term refers to the Greek myth of Sisyphus, who was condemned by the gods to roll a boulder up a hill in the underworld, only to have it roll back down every time he reached the top. The myth is often used as a metaphor for the futility of life and the importance of finding joy in the present moment. Jonathan Petersen is Chief Markets Economist at Variant Perception, where he contributes to the analyst team's research on major economies and markets. He started his economics career on Vanguard's global economic research team. Following this, he helped launch and lead the currency research service at Capital Economics.

Discussion on the latest episode of The Weekly Briefing from Capital Economics attempts to avoid any mention of Donald Trump – and fails almost immediately. But Group Chief Economist Neil Shearing's point is that there is a lot going on in the world besides regime change in Washington.

Donald Trump says ‘tariff' is “the most beautiful word in the dictionary”. That's up for debate – but what's less arguable is that raising taxes on imports as much as the Republican presidential candidate is threatening would be bad trade policy, according to Group Chief Economist Neil Shearing. He's on the latest episode of The Weekly Briefing from Capital Economics to discuss why tariffs would hurt the US economy and the economies of its key trading partners, all while failing to achieve Trump's objectives. Also on the show, Hamad Hussein from our Climate and Commodities team explains why reports of cooling electric vehicles sales in the US and Europe paint an incomplete demand picture, and what that all means for oil appetite.Plus, an exclusive extract from our post-ECB client briefing on the Governing Council's next steps – including whether its last move of the year could be a super-sized rate cut.

It's a rare thing for a press conference from China's Minister of Finance to excite quite so much, but there were widespread hopes in markets that Saturday's briefing from Lan Fo'an would finally provide the details of fiscal easing plans that had been missing from the government's stimulus pledges so far.

With weak growth in the sector and a high interest rate environment that has pushed the cost of ownership to new heights, the CRE space is expected to continue falling in value this year. In fact, property values could fall another 10% after falling 11% last year, according to Capital Economics' deputy chief property economist Kiran Raichura. He sees growth softening “as the industrial rent boom gives way to more ‘normal' growth rates and apartment rents flatline,” he wrote.  Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
