The following article of the Trade & Investment industry is: “How New US Tariffs Could Reshape Mexico's 2026 Growth” by Bernhard Wurzinger, CEO and Co-Founder, Spenza.

Prime Minister Christoper Luxon is calling the latest attempt by the United States to impose a 12.5 percent tariff on New Zealand "ridiculous." Former trade minister Tim Groser spoke to Corin Dann.

In today's BizNews Daybreak, we explore global market pressures, starting with new US Section 301 tariffs affecting South Africa and 60 other economies. Former Israeli adviser Mark Regev discusses strained Pretoria-Israel relations and ICJ genocide charges. Furthermore, we preview upcoming central bank rate decisions, Nvidia's potential $250B OpenAI data center deal, tech mega-cap earnings scrutiny on AI CapEx, and US economic growth.

The Prime Minister has responded to the US hitting New Zealand with 12.5% tariffs. Despite the tariffs already facing scrutiny from US courts, Kiwi exporters are preparing to bare the brunt of the raised tariff. Christopher Luxon told Mike Hosking that, "it's purely a play to find another avenue to open up the 12.5% tariffs when the Supreme Court came back with a negative ruling" Donald Trump used accusations of 'forced labour' to justify the tariffs, which Chris Luxon strongly denies.

Prime Minister Anthony Albanese joins David Speers with Ashleigh Raper, Rafael Epstein and Greg Brown on the couch.

Evan Ellis surveys Brazil's high-stakes election, with Lula da Silva currently leading Flavio Bolsonaro in polling. New 25% US tariffs threaten nearly 26% of Brazil's exports, totaling $15 billion in goods. Tensions rise as the Supreme Courtblocks high-profile visitors like Argentina's Javier Milei from meeting the elder Bolsonaro. Many Brazilians believe the elder Bolsonaro's influence triggered these punitive trade measures, while the military remains the largest force in South America. (4)E

The Trump Administration's latest slate of global tariffs may be more durable than earlier tariff regimes. President Donald Trump makes a new demand that could derail a U.S.-Saudi nuclear agreement. Congress is proposing new ways to regulate AI after an OpenAI agent went "rogue." Federal prosecutors withdraw subpoenas for New York Times reporters - at least for now. And Ukraine has a new target: Russian e-retailers. Listen to the Morning Bid podcast ⁠⁠⁠⁠here⁠⁠⁠⁠. Sign up for the Reuters Econ World newsletter ⁠⁠⁠⁠here⁠⁠⁠⁠.

The Australian Government has lodged an official objection to new 12.5 per cent US tariffs on Australian exports announced today by the Trump administration

China says it opposes unilateral tariffs in any form, warning that tariff and trade wars serve no party's interests as the United States imposes new duties on goods from dozens of economies.

We're starting the show talking business because US President Donald Trump has announced that New Zealand will face trade tariffs of 12.5 percent.

With the Trump Administration making it harder to import Aussie food and fibre into the United States - maybe we should be pushing our 'clean green' image harder into untapped markets. As of 2pm AEST Friday, we're among 60 nations slapped with tariffs up to 12.5 per cent because the US Government says we are not doing enough to stop forced labour. Rural Reporter Gabrielle Hodson spoke with RMIT Professor of Logistics and Supply Chain Management, Vinh Thai. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Our exporters are bracing to be hit with hiked US tariffs but the red meat sector is in the firing line for even more. Trade experts suggest New Zealand could face a blanket 12.5% tariff – up from the current 10%. The US International Trade Commission has also launched an investigation into lamb imports. Beef + Lamb New Zealand Chair Kate Acland told Ryan Bridge it can submit evidence into the four-month investigation. She says the commission can impose remedies like tariffs if it finds current settings have harmed US lamb producers. LISTEN ABOVE See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Shutterstock Track 1219389 Monetization ID TFGEPGEI0LHEIJAI Kia ora. Welcome to Tuesday's Economy Watch where we follow the economic events and trends that affect Aotearoa/New Zealand. I'm David Chaston and this is the international edition from interest.co.nz. Today we lead with news many countries are awaiting news of a new barrage of US tariffs, although the fear level is nowhere near as high this time as this weapon has proven relatively limp in the past, and mainly hurts US consumers. First today, the overnight dairy auction surprised somewhat with an end to the recent weakness, rising +1.5% in USD terms although down almost -1.0% in NZD terms on the firmer NZD. Perhaps surprisingly, milk fats did quite well, other than cheddar (-6.5%). Powders were all up. Some say that northern hemisphere heatwaves have buyers nervous that this will soon weigh on production levels there, so stocks are being built in case. In the US, the slower hiring trend that started in early May continued last week with the ADP weekly tracking reporting its lowest level since March, just after this weekly tracking series started. US timber prices are rising and quite sharply recently. That is because of forest fires in the US Pacific Northwest states, and in British Columbia, the main exporting Canadian province to the US. Trump's new tariffs on Canada are making things worse for US housebuilders. The early outcomes for the Q2-2026 earnings reporting season (with 10% of S&P 500 companies reporting actual results), 88% of these companies have reported a positive EPS surprise and 85% have reported a positive revenue surprise. The US summer holiday season is starting to peak now and will stay like this until early August. The season overall ends on their Labor Day on September 7. We note this because commercial activity is different during this period and financial market activity is lighter than usual. The same is true for Canada of course. But US border states are doing it tough because Canadians are choosing to avoid the US for their holidays as the insults and tariff actions from Trump's Washington swamp stay aggressive. In China, new stimulus is being rolled out. Its gigantic "Six Networks" buildout is getting a major boost as part of more infrastructure spending. Those six are: water networks (canals), power grids, data centers, 6G development, undergrounding pipelines, and supply-chain efficiency upgrades. But they are also trying to get their service sector re-energised as well with targeted 'investments'. Meanwhile, China is re-thinking its tax rebates that are driving its export competitiveness. It needs those funds for its domestic projects, and it doesn't need the international alarm their mercantalist export policies are creating. In Europe, the ECB's Q2 lending survey has found banks have tightened credit standards moderately for firms on higher perceived risks and lower risk tolerance. Corporate loan demand rose while demand for housing loans and consumer debt decreased. Interestingly, companies seeking green loans were found to have much better financial profiles. Germany's ZEW sentiment survey recovered notably in July after four months on weakness, and this is mirrored in their wider survey for the EU. The price of copper is rising again, getting near the record highs it posted at the start of the Iran-US conflict. Driving some of this are unusually low copper stocks in China. Meanwhile the FAO is reporting that hunger in the world fell again in 2025 and for a third consecutive year. Around 645 million people, or 7.8% of the world's population, experienced hunger last year, down from 8.1% in 2024 and 8.6% in 2022 The UST 10yr yield is now just on 4.63%, up +3 bps from this time yesterday and approaching its recent mid-May highs.  The price of gold has risen to US$4069/oz, up +US$65 from yesterday. Silver is now just over US$58.50/oz, up +US$2 from yesterday. Oil prices are +US$1.50 higher from yesterday at just on US$84.50/bbl in the US, while the international Brent price is now just over US$92/bbl and up +US$3. Hormuz transits are still just a trickle There have been just 1 crude tanker and 3 cargo ships exiting over the past 24 hours (4 dark with transponders off) and 11 entering for new loads (3 dark) and all this traffic is Iran-linked. The Red Sea is also now effectively blocked at Yemen. The Kiwi dollar is -20 bps lower from yesterday at just over 58.3 USc. Against the Aussie we are also down -20 bps at 83.3 AUc. Against the euro we are down -10 bps at just on 51.1 euro cents. That all means our TWI-5 starts today at 62.2 which is down -10 bps from this time yesterday. The bitcoin price starts today at US$66,421 and up +1.3% from this time yesterday. Volatility over the past 24 hours has again been modest at just over +/-1.4%.

As the African Growth and Opportunity Act (AGOA) faces bipartisan scrutiny in Washington ahead of its December 2026 deadline, South African business group Sakeliga has submitted a radical new proposal for "subnational differentiation". Russell Lamberti explains how the plan would allow individual companies, municipalities, and provinces—like the Western Cape—to bypass looming punitive US trade tariffs. By directly verifying compliance with free-market principles and formally dissenting from the ANC's race-based BEE and expropriation policies, businesses could protect their access to crucial US export markets regardless of national government action.

Globally, the US proposes major tariffs, and US-Iran peace talks face friction over the conflict in Lebanon. Locally, a Pretoria SPAR store faces severe tax fraud allegations, a Business Day investigation exposes rampant illicit number plate sales in Johannesburg, and an expert shares crucial tips to combat digital banking fraud. Finally, economist Mariana Mazzucato argues for purpose-driven corporate contracts.

Following recent episodes that examined specific US tariff announcements, today's discussion takes a wider view. Host Birgit Matthiesen is joined by AFS Customs and Tariff Practice Leader Antonio J. Rivera to explore how tariff policy and enforcement are increasingly a fiscal and strategic risk across industries, elevating them into a core enterprise risk issue. What the Episode Covers - Defining enterprise risk in the tariff context, including fiscal exposure, legal risk, and competitive positioning. - Developing mitigation strategies and a coordinated, company-wide approach spanning procurement, operations, and marketing. - Planning for both the near term, such as current tariff mitigation options, and the long term, including supply chain and production strategy.

The Trade Minister says he'll be making the case against further US tariffs on New Zealand lamb. Todd McClay says he expects the US Government to launch an investigation into our lamb exports in the coming weeks. It could result in extra tariffs being imposed to protect the US sheep meat sector. McClay told Mike Hosking he and his officials will be reminding their US counterparts of the mutual benefits of the trade. He says lamb consumption and lamb prices in the US have gone up as a result of New Zealand's marketing efforts. LISTEN ABOVE See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Stijn Schmitz welcomes Steve Hanke, Professor of Applied Economics at Johns Hopkins University, to discuss global economic trends, monetary policy, and the emerging commodity super cycle. The professor’s outlook suggests a complex economic landscape with potential for significant disruption, driven by monetary policy, geopolitical tensions, and structural changes in global trade and commodity markets. Hanke emphasizes the critical importance of money supply as a key indicator of economic activity and inflation, noting that the United States is currently experiencing an accelerating money supply that will make controlling inflation challenging. The discussion highlights several significant global economic dynamics, particularly focusing on commodity markets and geopolitical tensions. Hanke argues that the world is entering a commodity super cycle characterized by underinvestment, supply chain disruptions, and precautionary inventory building. The ongoing conflict in the Gulf region and disruptions to global trade have further complicated commodity markets, with potential oil prices ranging from $100 to $350 per barrel depending on supply constraints. Geopolitically, Hanke suggests that Russia and China are emerging as significant winners in this environment, while the United States has potentially weakened its global position through its actions. He dismisses concerns about de-dollarization, arguing that the US dollar remains the dominant global currency with limited realistic alternatives. On inflation, Hanke predicts continued upward pressure due to monetary policy loosening, commercial bank lending growth, and federal reserve actions. He emphasizes that inflation is fundamentally a monetary phenomenon, driven by increases in money supply rather than isolated economic events. Regarding commodities, Hanke identifies several sectors poised for growth, including critical materials like lithium and vanadium. He recommends investors be “long everything” in the commodity space, noting significant price increases in various exotic commodities.

The US Supreme Court's rejection of the raft of US tariffs imposed in 2025 under the International Emergency Economic Powers Act (IEEPA) offers near-term relief for some exporters, but some sectors may still be in the crosshairs.   We discuss the prospect of refunds, the durability of restrictive trade frameworks, and how the US administration will likely tap other legal means achieve its trade agenda.   This comes amid upheaval from the Middle East conflict which is rippling across sectors and deepening the uncertainty.   Host: William Foster, Senior Vice President, Sovereign Risk, Moody's Ratings    Guests: Atsi Sheth, Chief Credit Officer, Moody's Ratings   Related Research:  Tariffs – Global – Trade deal commitments and new tariffs diminish effects of IEEPA ruling 3 March 2026 Tariffs – US – FAQ: Trade uncertainty will persist after Supreme Court rules on IEEPA tariffs 19 Feb 2026 Government Policy – US – Midterm dynamics and 'America First' agenda to shape credit in 2026 19 Feb 2026 Moody's Tariff Tracker   © 2026 Moody's Corporation and/or its licensors and affiliates.

PREVIEW — Chris Riegel — US Tariffs Devastate Chinese Manufacturing and Economic Stability. Riegel reports that American tariff policies have severely damaged Chinese manufacturing sectors, catalyzing emergence of dark factories with minimal human employment and declining utilization rates. Riegel documents that China's attempted export pivot toward Russia cannot compensate for lost Western markets, leaving China's economy unstable beneath catastrophic debt burden functioning as structural sword of Damocles. Riegel emphasizes that China's debt-constrained economic model prevents stimulus and infrastructure spending necessary to absorb factory closures and employment displacement from American trade restrictions.
