Trump's Tariff Power Play: Why It Might Work (If We Stay Patient)

In this episode of Uncommon Sense with Ginny Robinson, I'm giving my take (to the best of my ability—because I'm not a tariff expert and neither are most of the people chiming in right now) on Trump's gutsy new tariff move. It's the one that's got half the country cheering and the other half clutching their pearls. While the media yells “economic suicide,” I'm here to suggest that this strategy might actually work—but not overnight. We'll talk about the possibility of long-term gain, the reality of short-term discomfort, and the cultural obsession with instant results when what's often required is patience. I will also go over our collective short attention spans and why longer attention spans are needed for understanding complex issues like this. Every answer won't fit in a 15 second soundbite. At the end of the day, we'll have to pray, wait, and see. Some of the smartest plays take time to unfold.—https://noblegoldinvestments.com/learn/gold-and-silver-guide/?utm_campaign=21243613394&utm_source=g&utm_medium=cpc&utm_content=&utm_term=noble%20gold&seg_aprod=&ad_id=698073353663&oid=2&affid=1&utm_source=google&affiliate_source=googleads_brand_bmbc&utm_term=noble%20gold&gad_source=1&gbraid=0AAAAADQ2DzJSJ_mi5cJo8dO2FNUs7uNy-&gclid=CjwKCAjwktO_BhBrEiwAV70jXtjSCyioSM2Hz1McTAlR3f8t3KCDDN3-XBWLaIzwJmiEGe0ztxIk5RoCnM0QAvD_BwE

Summary This Develop This! episode delves into the complexities of tariffs and their impact on the can manufacturing industry in the United States. Dennis Fraise hosts Rick Huether, CEO and Chairman of the Board of the Independent Can Company, and Robert Budway, President of the Can Manufacturers Institute, to discuss the historical context of tariffs, the current state of the industry, and the challenges faced by manufacturers. The discussion highlights the importance of understanding how tariffs affect not only businesses but also consumers and the potential for reshoring manufacturing in the U.S. amidst ongoing economic challenges.   Takeaways Tariffs significantly impact the cost structure of can manufacturing. The can industry is a vital yet often overlooked part of the food supply chain. Economic developers play a crucial role in advocating for the can manufacturing sector. The current tariff regime is complex and constantly changing. Manufacturers are facing unprecedented challenges due to tariffs and material sourcing issues. Sustainability and recycling are key advantages for the can industry. The consumer will ultimately bear the cost of increased tariffs. Investment in domestic manufacturing capacity is essential for future stability. Collaboration between manufacturers and policymakers is necessary to address tariff impacts.

SEBI's ‘Mitra' Helps Investors | India's Steel Industry Faces Tariff Fallout

It's Wednesday, March 5th, 2025. This is Nelson John, let's get started.  India's Steel Industry Faces Tariff Fallout India's steel industry was on a growth path—until US tariffs disrupted global trade flows. With Washington slapping 25% tariffs on steel from Mexico and Canada and doubling duties on Chinese imports, China's steel exports to the US have become unviable. This surplus steel now threatens to flood India, driving prices down and squeezing margins. “India becomes the natural target for Chinese steel at the worst possible time,” warns Karan Pahuja of ISSDA. While some see opportunity—like Abhyuday Jindal of Jindal Stainless, who notes that Indian exports to the US may gain—others worry that surplus steel from Korea and Japan could also hit domestic markets. The industry is now looking to the Indian government for protective measures. BSE Stock Tumbles Amid SEBI Proposal—But Is Panic Justified? BSE shares plunged 20% after SEBI's February 24 consultation paper raised concerns over trading volumes. At issue is SEBI's plan to change how open interest is calculated in index derivatives, shifting to a delta-based method to reduce systemic risks. But fears may be overblown—SEBI's own data shows that in 89% of cases last November, the proposed limits wouldn't have been breached. Additionally, SEBI's move to restrict derivatives to broader indices aims to prevent manipulation, but exchanges could tweak index compositions to comply. With single-stock derivatives also facing new limits, analysts believe only low-liquidity stocks will be affected. After four days of declines, BSE shares rebounded 2%, signaling investors are reassessing the panic. SEBI's ‘Mitra' Helps Investors Recover Forgotten Mutual Funds Millions of old mutual fund investments remain unclaimed, particularly those opened before PAN was mandatory in 2006. SEBI's new digital assistant, Mitra, developed by KFin Technologies and CAMS, aims to fix this. Investors can visit MFcentral.com, enter their details (beyond just PAN), and track down inactive folios. While verification remains a challenge for accounts with outdated contact details, experts see Mitra as a game-changer. “It's a much-needed tool to consolidate scattered investments,” says Abhishek Kumar of SahajMoney. Still in beta, Mitra marks SEBI's latest effort to safeguard investor wealth and modernize financial tracking. Adani Wilmar Expands Into Packaged Foods With ₹603 Crore Deal Adani Wilmar, known for its Fortune and Kohinoor brands, is strengthening its foothold in Indian kitchens. The company is acquiring G.D. Foods—makers of Tops ketchup and noodles—for ₹603 crore as part of its ₹1,000 crore push into packaged foods. The deal gives Adani Wilmar access to a range of processed products and a retail presence in 150,000 stores across North India. MD Angshu Mallick emphasized their commitment to scaling Tops, positioning it alongside FMCG giants like Marico, ITC, and Tata Consumer. With this acquisition, Adani Wilmar aims to turn Tops into a household staple. India's IT Giants Face Growth Uncertainty Amid US Banking Slowdown India's IT heavyweights—TCS, Infosys, HCLTech, Wipro, and Tech Mahindra—are entering uncertain territory. US banks, their largest clients, are pausing tech investments due to inflation worries and trade tensions. JM Financial's Abhishek Kumar warns, “Uncertainty has crept in… Trade war seems imminent.” Banking contributes nearly a third of revenues for these IT firms, meaning any spending cuts could hit growth. Adding to concerns, Capgemini forecasts zero organic growth this year, signaling global headwinds. Kotak analysts expect FY26 to be marginally better than FY25 but still below pre-pandemic levels, with weak discretionary spending and AI-driven pricing pressures weighing on the sector. Nasscom predicts IT revenue will cross $300 billion next year, but analysts caution that achieving this won't be easy amid economic challenges.

Steel has many uses - including in the construction of buildings, bridges; cars; and so on… The Steel Industry is part of the Manufacturing Sector AND it CONTRIBUTES about 1.5% to our GDP. The Steel industry is the heart of the economy in Newcastle, KZN. One of the biggest steel producers in South Africa is called ArcelorMittal. And it’s decided to CLOSE DOWN the Steel Business in Newcastle and Vereeniging it’s called the Longs Steel Business. They had announced the intention to close it down last year already - But made a u-turn; after opposition of the decision, by a number of Stakeholders, including Unions that have been worried about JOB LOSSES. So the company HAD SAID that - it would work on, turning the business around. But clearly - that has proven, to be an extremely difficult task. ArcelorMittal HAS FALLEN DEEPER, into a loss making position, due to these major factors: Lower global steel prices and that means less revenue. They are also paying more for electricity and logistics. And then there’s, competition from lower priced imports, particularly from China. They’ve been in talks with Government, since 2023 - to try and create policies that would create fair competition between South African made steel AND imported steel - where imports don’t CANNIBALISE our home made steel. But they’re saying that NOTHING has come out - to STRUCTURALLY CHANGE the Industry FUNDAMENTALS. Steel Imports - what is bought by South Africa from other countries - have increased by almost 50% since 2018. But the Steel Exports - what we sell to other countries - have REDUCED by 40%.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Interview with David Cataford, CEO of Champion Iron Ltd.Our previous interview: https://www.cruxinvestor.com/posts/champion-iron-tsxcia-high-grade-iron-ore-crucial-for-green-steel-transition-4048Recording date: 6th September 2024Champion Iron Limited (TSX:CIA) is positioning itself as a key player in the high-grade iron ore market, strategically aligning with the global steel industry's shift towards decarbonization. Operating the Bloom Lake mine in Quebec, Canada, the company currently produces approximately 15 million tons of high-grade iron ore annually, with significant growth potential on the horizon.CEO David Cataford emphasizes the company's unique position: "We produce one of the highest grade iron ores in the world, roughly about 15 million tons per year, and have significant growth projects in the pipeline." This focus on premium products is particularly relevant as the steel industry increasingly adopts electric arc furnaces (EAFs) to reduce carbon emissions.Champion Iron's growth strategy is threefold:Short-term: Resolving logistics constraints to increase quarterly sales by 300,000 to 400,000 tons.Medium-term: Debottlenecking Bloom Lake to potentially increase production to 17-18 million tons annually.Long-term: Developing the Kami project, which could add 9 million tons of direct reduction (DR) grade iron ore production annually.A key initiative is the ongoing project to increase ore grade from 66% to 69%, set for completion in late 2025. Catford explains, "It doesn't seem like a big increase, but it's the game changer between selling to blast furnaces and selling to electric arc furnaces." This positions Champion Iron to capitalize on the growing demand for high-grade iron ore in EAF steelmaking.The company benefits from a strong financial position, with a net cash balance providing flexibility for growth initiatives. Management alignment is notable, with over 10% ownership by executives and directors. Other significant shareholders include the Government of Quebec (8%) and a Chicago-based fund (8%), providing a mix of strategic and institutional support.Champion Iron's focus on high-grade iron ore aligns well with ESG considerations, supporting lower-carbon steel production. The recent inclusion of high-purity iron ore on Canada's critical minerals list underscores its strategic importance and may provide access to government support and funding.Market dynamics appear favorable, with Catford noting, "Today it [high-grade iron ore] represents about 5% of the market, but as these electric furnaces get delivered, we do believe there's going to be a pretty big pull in terms of this material." The scarcity of new high-grade iron ore projects could create a supply-demand imbalance benefiting producers like Champion Iron.However, investors should be aware of potential risks, including market volatility, project execution risks, and the cyclical nature of the commodities sector. The company's ability to successfully complete its grade improvement project and develop the Kami project will be crucial in realizing its growth potential.In conclusion, Champion Iron presents an intriguing opportunity for investors seeking exposure to the high-grade iron ore market. The company's strategic focus on premium products, clear growth pipeline, and strong financial position make it well-suited to benefit from the ongoing transformation in the global steel industry. As always, investors should conduct thorough due diligence and consider their risk tolerance when evaluating this opportunity.View Champion Iron's company profile: https://www.cruxinvestor.com/companies/champion-iron-limitedSign up for Crux Investor: https://cruxinvestor.com

The steel industry is facing too much supply and tumbling prices. Much of the problem is coming from China, where Chinese Communist Party (CCP) policies have led to overcapacity. Faced with this issue, the United States placed tariffs on Chinese goods, including steel and aluminum, which the CCP has in turn tried getting around by using Mexico as a waypoint to the U.S. market. This loophole is now being closed as well. We'll discuss in this episode of Crossroads.

Title image credit: Worldsteel_Gerdau S.A._Brazil_wire rod inspection Leading steelmakers globally are beginning to take steps to decarbonise and low emissions steel options are emerging on the market. But new analysis from ResponsibleSteel demonstrates that radical shifts to reduce emissions by a select number of industry leaders or "first movers" will not be sufficient. The entire steel industry needs to take immediate action to make progress on the journey to net zero. And this progress needs to be mapped out in a universal language. New report by ResponsibleSteel ResponsibleSteel has unveiled a landmark report, "Charting Progress to 1.5°C through Certification." Using two base scenarios - the International Energy Agency's (IEA) Net Zero Emissions by 2050, and the Mission Possible Partnership's (MPP) Carbon Cost - the report offers a detailed mapping of the progress needed for the global steel industry to achieve climate commitments under the Paris Agreement. The report was reviewed in-depth by representatives from the IEA, the Energy Transitions Commission and Systemiq, and has been endorsed by industry, civil society and intergovernmental organisations including the OECD, Baowu Group, the Climate Group, and Lendlease. According to the analysis, for the industry to meet its Paris Agreement obligations every steel plant in the world needs to be emitting less than today's average emissions intensity by 2030. In other words, following a 1.5°C trajectory, today's average emitters will become the industry's worst offenders by 2030 if they do not take steps now to improve. Annie Heaton, ResponsibleSteel's CEO stated, "Transforming the steel industry will require bold and universal action. No one can sit on the sidelines. Our analysis shows how certification can be used both to plan and to track the progress of every site on an equitable basis. Those who are not certified cannot be tracked." The ResponsibleSteel International Production Standard is a powerful tool for steelmakers, policymakers, financial institutions, trade organisations, and campaigners, to track and drive the industry's transition at pace and scale. The Production Standard's Decarbonisation Progress Levels provide an internationally consistent framework that enables a like-for-like comparison of steel plants globally and incentivises all steelmakers to invest in decarbonised production processes whilst operating in a socially and environmentally responsible way at the same time. ResponsibleSteel's analysis of six key steelmaking regions clearly illustrates that there is a pathway for every part of the industry. Regional conditions such as scrap availability, natural resource endowments, climate policies, and available finance will likely impact the speed and nature of industrial change, but there is no room for inaction. Furthermore, steelmakers must start to look beyond their physical site boundaries. Indirect supply chain-related emissions could make up about one-third of total average sectoral emissions by 2050, so reducing these will prove critical to the steel industry's transition. Ms Heaton continued, "ResponsibleSteel provides a trusted apparatus for measuring, comparing, and certifying progress in driving down emissions that steelmakers, buyers, investors, and policymakers can all get behind." "Achieving net-zero steel emissions by 2050 is not only feasible but critical to achieving the commitments made under the Paris Agreement. ResponsibleSteel's report, 'Charting Progress to 1.5°C through Certification' provides a clear, actionable roadmap taking into account key regional and technological differences which will impact the speed and direction in which industry players progress. Steelmaking sites must begin this journey. As this report points out, all steelmakers need to have made substantial progress by 2030 to stay on track." - Stephan Raes, Head of Structural and Industry Policy Division, OECD "ResponsibleSteel's report offers valuable insights...
