特朗普对等关税整体力度大超预期，全球股市普跌，美联储或进一步放缓降息步伐，关注关税反制措施｜宏观经济

Core Viewpoint - The new round of tariffs announced by Trump has led to a significant decline in global stock markets, with Vietnam and Japan experiencing the largest drops, while gold prices reached new highs [1][2]. Tariff Details - The new tariff policy consists of a baseline tariff increase of 10% effective from April 5, which is lower than market expectations. The retaliatory tariffs, effective from April 9, are significantly higher than anticipated, with China facing a 34% tariff (totaling 54%), the EU 20%, Japan 24%, Vietnam 46%, India 26%, and South Korea 25% [3][6]. Market Reactions - Following the announcement, stock markets globally fell, with Vietnam's market plummeting by 7% and Japan's by 3%. The A-share and H-share markets also continued to adjust, with the Shanghai Composite Index down 0.24% and the Hang Seng Index down 1.52%. The Chinese yuan depreciated to 7.35 against the US dollar [3][6]. Reasons for Tariff Increases - The Trump administration's rationale for increasing tariffs includes addressing trade imbalances, national security concerns, domestic political factors, and economic benefits. The administration believes that unfair trade practices by China contribute to the trade deficit and that tariffs can protect U.S. industries and generate government revenue [6][7]. Economic Implications - The tariffs pose a risk of "stagflation" for the U.S. economy, as consumers may face higher costs leading to reduced demand and increased economic pressure. The tariffs are expected to raise price levels and create upward pressure on inflation in the short term. Consumer inflation expectations have surged, with a significant increase noted in March [9]. The Federal Reserve may find it challenging to lower interest rates in the short term due to these economic pressures [9].
