Prediction: Trump is going to relax aluminum tariffs, and we will see a very tame US trade policy through midterms.

Excellent @sdonnan story on the tariff surprise of year 2. But as we continually warned throughout the end of last year @ACGeoEcon - year 2 was going to look a lot like year 1, despite what markets were hoping for.

The US and China are flipping the script. As the US tries to bring factories home, China Inc is stepping into the vacuum, investing in new production outside China. My latest @business @economics Big Take with help from colleagues around the world . bloomberg.com/news/features/…

Today alone, the White House has claimed: -$8 trillion in new tariff revenue. -$4 trillion in net deficit reduction. -$5 trillion in new business investment. -Hundreds of thousands of jobs from these investments. -Record low gas prices. Each claim is completely, 100%, made-up.
LABOR DAY 🤝 GOLDEN AGE President Trump’s protectionist trade policies have helped drive more than $8 trillion in new U.S. investment, creating hundreds of thousands of jobs.

Excellent story from ⁦@sdonnan⁩ on how Trump wants use tariffs to raise revenue. This should not be a surprise - they’ve been clear on this. There may be a rude awakening on Wall Street when markets realize not all tariff threats are negotiation. bloomberg.com/news/articles/…

In May 2019 when Trump threatened tariffs on Mexico, as he is now, policymakers at the Federal Reserve quickly started hearing from businesses. Their takeaway: The threat alone hurt US growth. A gift link to our @business @economics Big Take: bloomberg.com/news/features/…

Trump used his first term to redefine national security as a justification for tariffs. His second term appears set to redefine what constitutes an emergency… My take this inauguration morning for @business’ Supply Lines newsletter: bloomberg.com/news/newslette…
