Introduction:
In today’s episode, we explore the recent US-EU trade agreement where Europe has reluctantly accepted a 15% tariff, a deal seen by many as skewed in favor of the United States and a wake-up call for European economic ambitions. We then turn to the latest US-China negotiations in Stockholm, as senior officials work against an August 12 deadline to extend a temporary tariff truce and avoid reimposing duties exceeding 100%. Finally, we examine the Trump administration’s upcoming announcement on a national security probe into semiconductor imports, signaling potential new tariffs that could impact the auto industry and highlight the strategic importance of US-based chip manufacturing.
