#Tariffs
#Rising costs
#Reduced predictability
#Reshaping of global commerce
#Tariffs create drag – on growth, on margins, and on the broader investment climate
#Global supply chains cannot reroute overnight
#Reintroduction of barriers, especially ones that shift with political mood, forces companies to rethink operations, relocate production, and reassess markets
#Inflation is likely to rise
#Input costs increase, transportation costs rise, imported goods become more expensive
#Australia, one of the US closest partners, has been openly targeted | Alignment no longer guarantees stability | Market assumptions about trade security and access are now subject to disruption, regardless of partnership history
#Multinationals with distributed production models are facing complex questions such as where will new tariffs fall next
#For investors, the priority must now be active positioning | Supply-chain vulnerability needs to be reassessed | Countries with low political exposure and domestic demand resilience are likely to see increased capital flow | Sectors focused on regional production, infrastructure, and commodity security could gain relevance as the global map is redrawn
#Portfolio diversification with geopolitical discipline | Investors can no longer rely on economic logic alone to drive returns
#Policy risk | Must be treated with the same urgency as credit or currency exposure
#Global trade reordering | Implications extending well beyond markets | It affects how governments borrow | How inflation is managed | How currencies behave | How growth is distributed
#Signal sent by trade tarif introduction is lasting | It tells the world that political imperatives can now override economic alignment | Policy predictability is no longer a given | Global trade is no longer anchored in consensus, it is being shaped by leverage, retaliation, and shifting alliances | The new operating environment | Investors need to meet it head-on
#President Trump imposed a baseline 10% tariff on imports from all countries | 34% on China | 46% on Vietnam | 26% on India
#Free and unfettered trade lowers prices for consumers and thereby maximizes consumption
#Free trade is often an illusion
#Tariff signs | Apple investing $500 billion in the U.S | Johnson & Johnson $55 billion | Nvidia several hundred billion dollars
#Certain medical devices, semiconductors, pharmaceuticals and gold are also, so far, exempt from reciprocal customs duties
#For China, the 34% is on top of existing rates, meaning Chinese goods will be hit with tariffs of 54%
#US tariff winners | 10%: Australia, Brazil, UK | NAFTA: only on things not covered by the United States-Mexico-Canada Agreement | Zero 0%: Russia, Belarus
#US tariff loosers | China: 54% | Vietnam: 46% | Taiwan 32% | Switzerland: 32% | India: 27% | South Korea 26% | European Union: 20%
#Trumponomist | Toxic uncertainty to the global economy | It is not going to go away | Global economy is a perpetual uncertainty machine | One period of uncertainty feeds into another
