Podcasts about trade policy

Treasury Secretary Bessent seemed to acknowledge Sunday that President Trump’s tariffs may lead to some prices going up, but downplayed fears that it would fuel inflation. This past week, a closely watched measure of consumer sentiment slid to a near-record low, largely on concerns about trade policy. Personal finance expert Erin Lowry joins Ali Rogin to discuss.

Growers are hoping the recent rollout of a new U.S. trade deal with the United Kingdom is a sign of things to come. The agreement is the first trade pact with a new trading partner since 2012. And amid tariff uncertainty and unsettled markets, the presidential administration is signaling its desire to make trade deals with new countries a top priority. In particular, discussions are ongoing to open up new markets for corn in India and Vietnam, representing a potentially huge boost for the American corn industry. So in this episode of the Cobcast, we're talking to two top experts on international trade: Andrew Brandt, the Director of Trade Policy at the U.S. Grains Council; and Nancy Martinez, the Director of Public Policy, Trade and Biotechnology at the National Corn Growers Association. Together, we'll answer many of the distinct trade questions on growers' minds at this moment, like what are some other possible destinations for corn exports? What could potential deals look like with these new countries? And what does it all mean for folks who are just getting a crop in the ground?

What are tariffs really used for? For economic protection? For political gain? For enforcing foreign policy? In this interview, I discuss the following with my guest scholar: ►Why James Madison foresaw tariffs as an inevitable source of conflict? ►In U.S. history, did Americans ever complain that tariffs are really a tax on the people? ►What was the first instance in which tariffs were used as a foreign policy tool? ►What is the Tariff of Abominations? ►How did tariffs backfire on Southern politicians? ►How are tariffs and secession movements related? ►Were tariffs part of Civil War's history? ►What powers did Congress grants to FDR over tariffs? ►What part of U.S. history does Pres. Trump point to as justification for his tariff policy? ►What was Pres. Reagan's tariff policy? ►How is tariff policy with the USSR different than our tariff policy toward China?

In this episode of The P.A.S. Report, Professor Nick Giordano exposes the bipartisan failures that have left America weakened through failed trade agreements and an infrastructure in shambles despite trillions spent. From FAA radar blackouts and floppy disk-era technology to lopsided trade deals and slush funds, it's clear the political class is more interested in serving special interests than fixing what's broken. As politicians transferred billions of dollars overseas to build 21st-century airports, roads, and walls to protect foreign nations, our own skies remain unsafe and they have allowed our border to remain wide open. This episode breaks it all down with sharp analysis, real numbers, and unapologetic truth. Episode Highlights: Trump – Starmer trade agreement signals a shift toward rebalancing decades of failed global economic policies. The shocking state of FAA infrastructure: radar outages, copper wires, and eBay-sourced parts. Remember, former President Biden's $1.2 trillion infrastructure bill? Where the money really went, and why most of it had nothing to do with infrastructure.

Tariffs on Monday, none on Tuesday? Welcome to the new reality for Mexican manufacturers navigating the unpredictable trade landscape after recent political changes. In this conversation with Jorge Quijano, Head of Sales for Repstronics at APEX 2025, we dive into the real challenges facing companies operating south of the border—and the innovative strategies they're employing to stay competitive despite the chaos.Jorge paints a vivid picture of manufacturers literally rushing to build products over weekends and ship on Mondays, only to halt operations when tariffs suddenly shift again. Despite this turbulence, forward-thinking companies are positioning themselves for long-term success. "The companies that are really preparing for that moment are the ones that are going to be stronger," Jorge explains.The conversation expands beyond tariffs to explore how uncertainty is reshaping investment strategies. Rather than traditional equipment purchases, Repstronics now offers creative alternatives like leasing and rental options that convert CapEx to OpEx. Meanwhile, manufacturers are turning inward, focusing on automation to address persistent workforce challenges and exploring AI implementation—though often without fully understanding what they're asking for. As Jorge notes, "Sometimes we get a request that hey, we need to implement AI, but they don't have an idea of what it is." This mirrors the Industry 4.0 hype cycle that preceded it, though AI may finally help companies properly leverage the data they've been collecting for years.EMS@C-Level Live at APEX is sponsored by global inspection leaders Koh Young (https://www.kohyoung.com) and Creative Electron (https://creativeelectron.com)EMS@C-Level is sponsored by global inspection leaders Koh Young (https://www.kohyoung.com) and Creative Electron (https://creativeelectron.com) You can see video versions of all of the EMS@C-Level pods on our YouTube playlist.

In this episode, portfolio manager, Peter Lampert discusses international equities and the impact of tariffs on portfolio management. He provides insights into how his team has been preparing for potential tariffs since Trump's campaign, explaining that most of their international portfolio companies have limited export exposure to the U.S. and instead operate primarily in domestic markets across various regions. He highlights their strategic decision to exit positions that are heavily dependent on global trade, while maintaining confidence in businesses with resilient management teams capable of navigating economic uncertainty. He also shares personal strategies for maintaining a clear head during market volatility and points out some underappreciated silver linings amid tariff concerns.   Key points from this episode: How the international equity team prepared for tariff risks during Trump's campaign, viewing market reactions in February as too benign given potential economic impacts. Many companies in their international portfolio have minimal direct exposure to U.S. tariffs, with many operating domestic U.S. businesses or serving their local markets, like Compass (UK-based catering company with 60% US revenue). The importance of emotional discipline, especially during market volatility, and having a team structure that promotes rational decision-making. Potential silver linings that may have been overlooked by markets, including Europe's increased investment in defense and infrastructure, and China's opportunity to shift toward more domestic consumption.   Host: Rob Campbell, CFA, Mawer Institutional Portfolio Manager Guest: Peter Lampert, CFA, Mawer Portfolio Manager   This episode is available for download anywhere you get your podcasts.

Michael talks with Finley about the changing workforce. Original air date 11 April 2025.

It's been another tumultuous week in financial markets following President Trump's tariff announcements on 2nd April. Tariffs were broad and generally larger than expected and financial markets did not digest them all that well, although some resilience in US labour market data appears to be curbing some of the downside for now. In this episode, we will go into the detail of what trade policy is being implemented and what it means for various economies. Chapters: US (01:27), Europe (09:00), Asia (14:01), Australia and New Zealand (20:15). 

The problem with Trump's trade policies is that they can't be viewed in a vacuum. Together with the debt and the failure to solve other problems, there is no broader economic vision. In today's long and in-depth show, I explain when tariffs are appropriate and when not. Most of what ails us is due to other economic and domestic policies, and absent a fix for those problems, higher tariffs will not result in more revenue, more onshoring, and more jobs. I also discuss the balance of trade deficits, onshoring, and tariffs and how they intersect with other policies. We go through five often muddled and conflicting objectives being proffered by Trump administration officials and how each one is built upon a false choice or downright false data. Finally, I discuss why it's indefensible to be hawkish on trade but dovish on foreign labor and weak on debt policy. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

In this episode, Aaron McIntire discusses the implications of President Trump's recent executive order instituting reciprocal tariffs on various countries, the potential economic impact of these tariffs, and the challenges posed by universal injunctions in the judicial system. The conversation also touches on the current state of Congress and the effectiveness of legislative actions under the Trump administration.

After weeks of cosying up to Donald Trump, the UK has still been hit with 10% tariffs on exports to the US, which is bad news for the economy and the public finances. So, how tough could things get for Britain? And how should Keir Starmer's government respond? John Harris asks the former UK ambassador to the US Kim Darroch and the Guardian columnist Polly Toynbee.

A shift in leadership often brings a shift in economic direction, and with that, a wave of uncertainty for business leaders. Recent changes in trade policy have sparked a great deal of conversation (and concern) around tariffs, trade imbalances, and global supply chains. But what we're seeing now isn't the final chapter—it's part of a broader strategy to reshape the future of international trade and industrial development in the U.S. The goals are ambitious: addressing the national debt, correcting long-standing trade deficits, bringing key industries back onshore, and rethinking the rules of global commerce. While the path forward may seem unpredictable, there is a long-term vision driving these moves. The U.S. has long relied on the free market to guide economic outcomes, but certain challenges, like national security and the health of strategic industries, require more than market forces alone. Trade, especially when it intersects with geopolitical and security interests, demands a more hands-on approach. So, what does this mean for today's financial leaders? How should CFOs be preparing for the ripple effects of tariffs and other trade measures? In this episode of the podcast, I sit down with Dr. Steve Horan, Former Managing Director of the prestigious CFA Institute and Finance Professor at UNC-Wilmington, to explore the broader implications of evolving trade policy. We talk about the big picture—debt reduction, onshoring trends, and how leaders can position their organizations for success in this dynamic environment. In this episode, you'll learn: The least painful path to reducing the national debt Are tariffs a tax or a tool? Will tariffs be an effective trade negotiation lever What's really driving interest rates The biggest concern for CFOs right now (hint: it's not what you think)   Guest Bio Dr. Steve Horan is an Associate Professor of Finance at UNC Wilmington.
