Send us Fan MailIn this episode, I host a live panel discussion diving deep into one of the biggest forces shaping the scrap industry right now: Tariffs, trade policy, and global market dynamics.Joined by industry experts, the panel unpacks what's actually happening beneath the headlines, covering recent tariff changes, shifting trade flows, and the real-world impact on recyclers, traders, and operators.From 10% global tariffs to 50% steel and aluminum duties, and everything in between, this conversation cuts through the noise to focus on what really matters for scrappies on the ground.In this episode, we talk about:

US Trade Representative Jamieson Greer joins Annmarie Hordern on Bloomberg TV to discuss the idea that the US is insulated from supply chain effects from the Strait of Hormuz, as well as to discuss the Trump administration’s perceived shortfall of the World Trade Organization and the possibility of a returning to a 20% tariff level with China. Greer says, “I see stability with China over the next year” as the nations prepare for talks in May.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

In March's Almond Byte, we break down fast-moving geopolitical and policy developments that could ripple into almond trade flows. We start with the Israel-Iran conflict and disruption in the Strait of Hormuz, a critical shipping corridor linking Gulf ports to global markets. We also share a quick roundup of the latest tariff and trade updates, including emerging reciprocal trade frameworks, USMCA joint review preparations, and the Administration's 2026 trade policy agenda. Finally, we touch on USDA's reorganization timeline and preview ABC's April delegation trip to Washington, D.C.

NFU Remains Concerned by Trump Administration's Trade Tariffs

On February 20, 2026, the Supreme Court of the United States (SCOTUS) ruled that the U.S. President cannot use the International Emergency Economic Powers Act (IEEPA) to impose broad tariffs. That decision removes a key legal basis behind the 2025 tariff program— but it does not remove uncertainty for global business. In this episode of Down to Business English, Skip Montreux and Samantha Vega get Down to Business with the court decision that reshaped the U.S. tariff story. They review the timeline of how the tariff policy expanded in 2025 — including reciprocal tariffs that ranged from 10% to 50% and were framed as a response to U.S. trade deficits. Then they break down the Court's main point in plain English: “regulating” trade is not the same thing as taxing imports — and under the U.S. Constitution, Congress (not the President) controls taxes and duties. Finally, they look at how other countries are reacting and ask the next big business question: if companies paid tariffs under IEEPA, what happens now — and will refunds be possible? Skip and Samantha's conversation gives listeners a clear, practical look at tariff policy — while helping you build your Business English. In this episode, you will learn: What ‘SCOTUS' and ‘IEEPA' mean, and why legal details matter for global firms. The timeline of the US tariff since Donald Trump to office in January 2025. Why tariff refunds are complicated and why it may take time to sort out. What ‘Plan B' looks like: a temporary global tariff under Section 122 — and why uncertainty may continue even after a major court ruling. Do you like what you hear?

Are section 122 tariffs just in search of justification? IMF dents the balance of payment argument. Listen for more on Two Minutes in Trade. 

Did Trump's two hour ‘state of the union' speech tell us anything we didn't know? What's next for trade tariffs? Will anyone get a tariff refund? And where does all this leave Keir Starmer and his 2025 trade deals with the US? With the US Supreme Court ruling that Trump overstepped his authority, Robert and Steph discuss what impact trade tariffs have had so far and whether Trump's new 15% universal tariff will carry any weight. Plus we hear from UK manufacturers about how they're feeling in all this trade chaos. The Rest is Money is brought to you by Octopus Energy, Britain's smart energy pioneer.

Supreme Court, Trade Tariffs, and the Stagnant Order. Alan Tonelson discusses a Supreme Court case challenging the president's tariff powers (the "Liberation Day tariffs"), which he expects the administration to win. Tonelson cites historical deference to presidential foreign policy power and the president's authority to use other well-established tariffing measures, calling arguments against his powers "legally ignorant." The conversation also explores Michael Beckley's theory of a "stagnant order" among superpowers, leading them to act parasitically or defensively. Tonelson disagrees with the stagnation premise for the US, anticipating a major productivity boom thanks to artificial intelligence.

SHOW 11-3-25 CBS EYE ON THE WORLD WITH JOHN BATCHELOR 1895 TRINIDAD THE SHOW BEGINS IN THE DOUBTS ABOUT VENEZUELA. FIRST HOUR 9-915 Middle East Disorder, Gaza Ceasefire, and Lessons from War Reporting. Bill Roggio and Husain Haqqani address the persistent disorder in the Middle East, noting that the Gaza ceasefire ("hudna") is only a pause. Ambassador Haqqani critiques the flawed concept of pursuing a "war to end all wars," suggesting the world is a situation to endure, not solve permanently. Bill Roggio compares the current stabilization efforts to the failed attempts in Afghanistan following the Taliban's ouster, noting that key players like Hamas remain undefeated or unwilling to disarm. Both experts stress the difficulty of verifying initial reports of mass violence, urging patience and skepticism regarding premature assumptions about perpetrators or motivations. 915-930 Middle East Disorder, Gaza Ceasefire, and Lessons from War Reporting.

David Daoud and Bill Roggio discuss how following the Gaza ceasefire, the process of returning remains of slain hostages remains delayed, which Daoud suggests Hamas uses as leverage to prevent Israel from resuming conflict and entrenching a "post-war mentality." Experts note that Hezbollah is actively regenerating its military capabilities in Lebanon, bypassing disarmament efforts. Despite continuous, targeted Israeli strikes against Hezbollah personnel, there is minimal international condemnation because the organization maintains overwhelming Shiite support and the Lebanese government fails to enforce disarmament. Plans for an international security force in Gaza remain vague. 945-1000 Post-Ceasefire Gaza Hostages and Hezbollah Regeneration in Lebanon.

Malcolm Hoenlein discusses the New York City mayoral election, focusing on the populist rise of candidate Zelldin Maamoun, whose anti-Israel stance and lack of economic knowledge threaten the city's large Israeli-founded tech sector. He reveals that a World Health Organization official admitted that promoting "famine" in Gaza was a deliberate communications and political pressure strategy, despite adequate food supply. Hoenlein confirms that Hezbollah is rearming and refashioning ordnance in Lebanon, forcing Israel's hand. University leaders have begun acknowledging that campus unrest was largely foreign-driven, specifically citing Iran. Indonesia is noted as a potential key player in future Abraham Accords. 1015-1030 NYC Election, Famine Propaganda, and Foreign Influence on Campus.

Ernesto Araújo and Alejandro Peña Esclusa discuss the unprecedented US military buildup at the former Roosevelt Roads Naval Base in Puerto Rico, interpreted as preparations for action against Venezuela. Peña Esclusa clarifies that the true Venezuelan opposition, led by María Corina Machado (who won 93% of the primary vote), supports US action against the Maduro drug cartel. Araújo asserts that this is viewed regionally as a "crusade against organized crime," not an invasion, and would be welcomed by people tired of instability. This credible threat is already pressuring Venezuelan military officials to negotiate Maduro's exiIT. 1045-1100 US Military Buildup Near Venezuela and Opposition Support for Action.

John Hardie and Bill Roggio discuss how Russia has introduced new, longer-range guided glide bombs (like the UMPK and Grom-E1) that utilize cheap kits or purpose-built designs, offering a cost-effective, more survivable standoff weapon to attack critical infrastructure deep inside Ukraine. Meanwhile, the situation in the key logistics hub of Kurakhove is deteriorating, with Russian infantry infiltrating the city, disrupting crucial drone and mortar positions, and threatening to encircle remaining Ukrainian forces. Russia continues to maintain maximalist peace demands, including a ban on Ukraine joining NATO and demilitarization, resulting in the cancellation of proposed peace talks. 1115-1130 Russia's New Glide Bombs and Ukraine's Battlefield Crisis at Kurakhove.

FOURTH HOUR 12-1215 AI Revolution, Cloud Growth, and the Virtual Cell. Brandon Weichert reports on how AI is driving massive growth in cloud computing, exemplified by Amazon's surging shares and AWS growth, reaching paces "we haven't seen since 2022." Weichert dismisses fears of an "AI crash" as fear-mongering rooted in ignorance and past market bubbles, arguing that AI is sparking new sectors and enhancing productivity across industries. He details the cutting-edge application of AI in creating a "virtual cell"—computer models that simulate cell functions to speed up drug discovery, understand disease mechanisms, and inform scientific investigation. 1215-1230 Iran's Contradictory Nuclear Signals and Proxy Support. Jonathan Schanzer and Bill Roggio discuss how Iran is sending contradictory messages regarding its nuclear enrichment program and negotiations, with President Pezeshkian ("the dove") threatening to restart enrichment. Schanzer explains that "reformists" like Pezeshkian serve as a calculated front to signal openness while building leverage for future talks. Iran appears willing to risk future strikes, believing it can absorb them. However, Iran's ability to significantly rebuild its air defenses is complicated by the risk of UN snapback sanctions potentially deterring Russia and China from supplying advanced systems. Sanctions relief remains a key factor in Iran's proxy support. 1230-1245 UNIFIL's Failure, Hezbollah's Rebuilding, and Syria's Fragmented Future. Edmund Fitton-Brown, Ahmad Sharawi, and Bill Roggio label the UN Interim Force in Lebanon (UNIFIL) a "spectacular failure" that allowed Hezbollah's military buildup near the Israeli border. Despite the ceasefire terms requiring demilitarization south of the Litani River, the Lebanese government is stalling. Hezbollah is actively rebuilding its infrastructure, forcing Israel to conduct targeted enforcement actions. They also discuss Syrian President Ahmad al-Sharaa, who is seeking international legitimacy, sanctions relief, and partners to counter ISIS, even as his state remains domestically fragmented by regional demands for separation or autonomy. 1245-100 AM UNIFIL's Failure, Hezbollah's Rebuilding, and Syria's Fragmented Future.

Trade, tariffs, and the courts: On this month's episode of The Legal Impact, we examine the arguments behind a US Supreme Court case over extensive tariffs put in place by the Trump Administration in early 2025. Lower courts have ruled that the White House overstepped its authority under the law it used to justify the tariffs. But even if the Administration loses before the High Court, it has other legal tools at its disposal that it can use to impose tariffs, which may be less vulnerable to lawsuits.  

A new report says that the presence of microplastics in seafood has been overstated by the media. The paper, by researchers at Heriot-Watt University, says although media reports tended to concentrate on seafood contamination, the levels of microplastics in seafood is no greater than in other foodstuffs. It also says that dust and indoor air contain more microplastic particles than food.All week, we're taking a closer look at county council tenant farms. These farms have traditionally been a first step on the ladder, often for young aspiring farmers to get a foothold in agriculture. However county council tenancies have become harder to find and in recent years many cash-strapped councils have sold off a significant number of their farms. Not so in Staffordshire, where one young farmer Tom Chapman is building up his herd of sheep after securing a tenancy. Farm machinery manufacturers who export to the United States say their trade is being made 'almost impossible' after tariffs on steel and aluminium were extended. Originally tariffs on steel and aluminium were just for bulk items, but now, if a UK-made tractor is exported to the US, every steel or aluminium component - down to individual nuts and bolts - has to be taxed on the basis of where it came from, so the correct overall tariff payment is made. We speak to the Agricultural Engineers Association.Presenter = Anna Hill Producer = Rebecca Rooney

Send me a messageIn this episode of the Sustainable Supply Chain podcast, I sat down with Jim McCullen, CTO of Century Supply Chain Solutions, to unpack how technology—particularly AI—is quietly but effectively reshaping the logistics space.Jim's been with Century for over 30 years, which is practically unheard of in tech. We discussed what's kept him there so long, and how he's used that time to help major importers bring order to supply chain chaos—from managing tariff shifts and port disruptions to reducing carbon emissions through smarter origin management.We explored why North American firms lean more heavily on origin cargo management than their counterparts elsewhere, and how AI is now finally delivering real value—whether it's helping route freight more efficiently or enabling natural language queries through supply chain chatbots. Importantly, Jim also touched on the need for trust in AI systems and how they're rolling it out in ways that support rather than replace people.Other topics we covered: how data integration is still holding supply chains back, the balance between resilience and sustainability, and why training like a mountain bike racer actually makes sense if you're trying to stay focused in a complex global operation.If you're looking for practical ways to modernise supply chain operations, reduce emissions, and respond more intelligently to disruption, this one's worth your time.Listen noElevate your brand with the ‘Sustainable Supply Chain' podcast, the voice of supply chain sustainability.Last year, this podcast's episodes were downloaded over 113,000 times by senior supply chain executives around the world.Become a sponsor.

Market Reactions to Trade Tariffs and Economic Indicators In this episode of Dividend Cafe, Brian Szytel discusses the market downturn on April 16, highlighting the NASDAQ's 1.8% drop and the DOW's 700-point decline. Key factors include the impact of tariffs on the largest AI chipmaker, leading to broad market concerns about earnings season, forward guidance, and PE ratios. Despite the selloff, energy stocks closed up by 0.8%, with WTI rising 2%. Retail sales unexpectedly rose by 1.4%, while industrial production saw a slight decline. Federal Reserve Chairman Powell's comments on tariffs further fueled market uncertainty. The episode concludes with a discussion on tariffs' economic effects, including potential shifts in manufacturing jobs and the broader implications on the U.S. economy. Brian also addresses audience questions about inflation and the potential return of manufacturing jobs to the U.S., emphasizes the interconnected nature of global trade, and previews upcoming episodes. 00:00 Market Overview and Opening Remarks 00:31 Impact of Trade and Tariffs 01:30 Sector Performance and Economic Indicators 02:33 Federal Reserve Comments and Market Reactions 03:26 Q&A: Tariffs and Economic Implications 05:28 Conclusion and Upcoming Events Links mentioned in this episode: DividendCafe.com TheBahnsenGroup.com

Jason and Rahul Sen Sharma, an expert on indexes from Index (INDXX), discuss global economic shifts, trade wars, and the stock market. His company tracks over $20 billion in index-based assets, aiding companies in creating indexes, ETFs, and funds. He emphasizes focusing on long-term macro trends over daily market noise, highlighting "re-globalization" as a key shift driven by supply chain vulnerabilities and a desire for friendly-shoring and near-shoring. While tariffs may offer short-term benefits to some countries like India and Mexico, the focus should be on transformative trends like EVs, battery tech, renewables, and critical metals for long-term investment. He also touches on the importance of understanding index rulebooks due to performance divergences and addresses concerns about the S&P 500's concentration, suggesting the marketplace will dictate the need for alternative weighting. https://www.indxx.com/ #Indexes #Economy #TradeWar #Tariffs #StockMarket #Globalization #Reglobalization #Friendshoring #Nearshoring #Investment #Finance #ETFs #MarketTrends #Macroeconomics #RahulSenSharma #INDXX Key Takeaways: 1:28 Meet Rahul 2:16 Broad strokes and taking a macro view 5:11 Reglobalization 7:49 Level playing field 9:43 Where do we go from here 13:16 A difference in indexes 16:24 Self-indexing and the active managers 20:50 The big picture perspective   Follow Jason on TWITTER, INSTAGRAM & LINKEDIN Twitter.com/JasonHartmanROI Instagram.com/jasonhartman1/ Linkedin.com/in/jasonhartmaninvestor/ Call our Investment Counselors at: 1-800-HARTMAN (US) or visit: https://www.jasonhartman.com/ Free Class:  Easily get up to $250,000 in funding for real estate, business or anything else: http://JasonHartman.com/Fund CYA Protect Your Assets, Save Taxes & Estate Planning: http://JasonHartman.com/Protect Get wholesale real estate deals for investment or build a great business – Free Course: https://www.jasonhartman.com/deals Special Offer from Ron LeGrand: https://JasonHartman.com/Ron Free Mini-Book on Pandemic Investing: https://www.PandemicInvesting.com    

Debate between Keith Rabois and Zach Weinberg on what tariffs are actually trying to accomplish. One core theme: Tariffs aren't fully about “bringing back factories,” but rather a negotiation tool to eliminate foreign trade barriers - ultimately aiming to increase free trade, not restrict it.We also got into:- What each of them would do if they were in charge- Whether the trade deficit is a meaningful metric or just a misunderstood talking point- If tariffs could be part of an initiative to replace income tax — shifting toward a more consumption-based tax system- If tariffs could successfully be used as a non-military tool to reduce drug supply to the US- If there's a major disconnect between the new administration's rhetoric and the actual economic goals behind the policyOne of the deepest economic conversations from the show's recent history — and a rare debate where both sides had real logic behind their views.(00:00) Introduction and Host's Biases(00:46) Keith's Perspective on Tariffs(03:05) Zach's Perspective and Clarifying Questions(05:14) Debating Tariff Strategies(07:45) Economic Implications and Free Trade(13:31) Trump's Tariff Policies and Goals(16:57) Global Trade and Protectionism(25:52) Final Thoughts on Tariffs and Trade(29:16) Discussion on Trade Tariffs and Partners(30:17) Impact of Tariffs on GDP and Debt(31:20) Political Coalitions and Trade Policies(32:00) Tariffs as Consumer Taxes(33:30) Debate on Trade Deficit and Tariff Rates(36:53) Regulatory Reforms and Economic Policies(47:25) Fentanyl Crisis and Trade Negotiations(51:06) Closing Remarks and Future TopicsExecutive Producer: Rashad AssirProducer: Leah ClapperMixing and editing: Justin HrabovskyCheck out Unsupervised Learning, Redpoint's AI Podcast: https://www.youtube.com/@UCUl-s_Vp-Kkk_XVyDylNwLA

I'm probably covering 1% of the world events when we conduct these briefings, so please remember that if I left it out, it doesn't necessarily mean that it's unimportant. Also, remember that I do these briefings quite often, so I might have covered an issue previously that you might not see if you are only watching our most recent videos. I'm also doing this in my spare time, so again I fully admit that these briefings aren't even close to being perfect; I'm going for a healthy blend of speed and quality. If I were to wait and only post a brief when it's "perfect" I would never post anything at all. So expect some minor errors here and there. If there is a major error or correction that needs to be made, I will post it here in the description, and verbally address it in the next briefing. Also, thanks for reading this far.

As the world reels from President Trump's trade tariffs, one of Africa's smallest, poorest nations takes one of the biggest hits – we speak to the trade minister of Lesotho. We also hear from a former US defense secretary, on how worried America's 'allies' should be.Also in the programme: the home city of Ukraine's President Zelensky suffers a deadly Russian missile attack; and we remember the world famous Malian musician Amadou, of Amadou and Mariam, who has died.

The tariff policies preferred by President Trump will be a "disaster" for the United States according to Republican Senator Rand Paul of Kentucky.
