The story of US tariffs has dominated much of the conversation for markets. Earlier today, stocks advanced Thursday in a sign investors are shifting their focus from concerns about lower growth and higher inflation from tariffs to instead prepare for corporate earnings season, which starts in a few days. We speak to Keith Buchanan, Senior Portfolio Manager at Globalt Investments.

Also - contracts for the S&P 500, which gained early in Asian trading, dipped 0.2% after Trump said he plans to impose ‘blanket’ tariffs of 15% or 20%. We get insight from Nadia Grant, Head of Global Equity at BNP Paribas Asset Management.

Bitcoin surged past $112,000 for the first time, setting a fresh record alongside a broad rally in risk assets that has swept up technology stocks big and small. The original cryptocurrency rose as much as 3.1% to $112,009, pushing its gain this year close to 20%. The move underscores the speculative momentum gripping markets even as President Donald Trump unleashes a fresh barrage of tariff announcements. The crypto rally is far from isolated: Nvidia Corp.’s brush with a $4 trillion valuation in Wednesday trading helped push the S&P 500 within a whisker of its record, with fast-money investors joining the stock-market fray. We speak to Matthew Tuttle, CEO & CIO at Tuttle Capital Management.

Also - President Trump’s threat to impose 50% tariffs on Brazilian goods sent the country’s currency plunging as the US leader sharply escalated a dispute with Latin America’s largest nation and leftist leader Luiz Inacio Lula da Silva. In a letter posted to his social media account, Trump cited Jair Bolsonaro — the right-wing former president and Lula rival who is facing a trial on charges that he attempted a coup following his 2022 election defeat. For more insight, we heard from Deborah Elms, Head of trade policy at Hinrich Foundation.

President Donald Trump vowed to push forward with his aggressive tariff regime in the coming days, stressing he would not offer additional extensions on country-specific levies set to now hit in early August while indicating he could announce substantial new rates on imports of copper and pharmaceuticals. The posturing on social media and at a Cabinet meeting on Tuesday came after traders initially shrugged off a series of letters and executive actions Trump issued Monday, pushing back the deadline for his so-called “reciprocal” tariffs while announcing the latest rates he planned for more than a dozen countries that had not succeeded in brokering quick trade agreements. For more  the market outlook, we speak to Frances Stacey, Economic Strategist at Scarlet Oak Financial.

Plus - Stephen Olson, Yusof Ishak Institute Senior Visiting Fellow and Former US Trade Negotiator gives us insight on where President Trump is going with his latest tariff announcement.

President Donald Trump unveiled the first in a wave of promised letters that threaten to impose higher tariff rates on key trading partners, but suggested that he was still open to additional negotiations and pushed off increased duties until at least Aug. 1. Trump began the notifications with missives announcing his intent to impose 25% levies on goods from Japan and South Korea. A dozen more followed throughout the afternoon, outlining plans to tariff foreign goods from trading partners including South Africa, Indonesia, Thailand and Cambodia. We speak to Ahmed Riesgo, Chief Investment Officer at Insigneo.

And for more analysis, we heard from Skyler Weinand, Chief Investment Officer at Regan Capital.

Major US trading partners hurried over the weekend to secure trade deals or lobby for extra time, while Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent indicated that some countries lacking an agreement by the deadline Wednesday will have the option of a three-week extension to negotiate. Also, central banks in Australia, South Korea, and Malaysia are expected to keep interest rates on hold in the week ahead. We speak to Paul Dobson, Bloomberg's Executive Editor for Asia Markets.

Plus - for more insight on President Trump's tariff deadline nearing and the economic week ahead for Asia, we heard from Trinh Nguyen, Natixis Senior Emerging Asia Economist.

Asian equities were set to climb Friday following fresh highs for US stocks as strong jobs data eased concerns the economy slowing down. Treasuries fell and the dollar rose Thursday in a sign traders see less pressure on the Federal Reserve to cut interest rates after US jobs growth exceeded expectations in June. Swap traders saw almost no chance of a July Fed cut, compared with a roughly 25% probability seen before the data. The chance of a move in September ebbed to about 70%. We get reaction from Rob Haworth, Senior Vice President and Senior Investment Strategy Director at U.S. Bank Asset Management Group.

Plus - US markets closed prior to the House passing President Donald Trump's tax bill that had weeks earlier sparked concerns over rising deficits. Separately, Trump also said his administration may begin sending out letters to trading partners as soon as Friday setting unilateral tariff rates ahead of a July 9 deadline for negotiations. Before the vote, we heard from Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent. He spoke with Bloomberg's Romaine Bostick and Matt Miller.

A rally in several big tech companies fueled gains in US stocks, with the market extending its advance as President Donald Trump said he reached a trade deal with Vietnam. Treasuries fell as a selloff in UK bonds underscored deficit worries. Following earlier losses driven by weak jobs data, the S&P 500 rose to fresh all-time highs. In the run-up to the jobs report, economists forecast employers added 110,000 jobs in June — the fewest in four months — amid a slight rise in the unemployment rate to 4.3%. The Bureau of Labor Statistics report is due Thursday, a day earlier than usual because of the Independence Day holiday. We get reaction to the day's market moves from Brian Krawez, President at Scharf Investments.

Plus - the trade truce between Washington and Beijing may be holding for now, but China is increasingly wary about what's happening elsewhere: US efforts to forge deals that could isolate Chinese firms from global supply chains. Ahead of a July 9 deadline, US officials are deep in talks with major trading partners in Asia and Europe, pushing for new agreements that would include restrictions on Chinese content, or secure commitments to counter what Washington sees as China's unfair trade practices. In the first such deal, President Donald Trump on Wednesday announced a tiered tariff agreement with Vietnam. Exports to the US from the Southeast Asian nation will be charged a 20% rate, Trump said in a social-media post, with 40% levied on any goods deemed to be transshipped through the country. We get the latest from Jill Disis, Bloomberg News Desk Editor in Hong Kong. She speaks with Bloomberg's Shery Ahn and Haidi Stroud-Watts on The Asia Trade.

Asian shares edged lower at the Wednesday open after President Donald Trump said he won't delay the July 9 deadline for imposing higher levies on trading partners, ratcheting up trade tensions yet again.

Back in June, China and the US reaffirmed their May trade truce, sustaining a rebound in trade flows and propelling China's economic momentum. Bloomberg Economics says consumption also showed signs of revival, but the trend is unlikely to last without continuous policy efforts that promote domestic demand. We take a look at the state of the Chinese economy with Shehzad Qazi, Chief Operating Officer and Managing Director at China Beige Book International.

Plus - US job openings hit the highest since November, largely fueled by leisure and hospitality, and layoffs declined. Federal Reserve policymakers have consistently characterized labor-market conditions as strong in recent weeks. Fed Chair Jerome Powell repeated that the US central bank probably would have cut rates further this year absent Trump's expanded use of tariffs, although he didn't rule out easing at its meeting later this month. We get market insights from Jeff Grills, Head of EM Debt at Aegon Asset Management.
