1. Report Industry Investment Rating No relevant content provided. 2. Core Views of the Report - Non - farm data cooled the interest - rate cut trading significantly, and the macro mainline returned to Trump's tariff policy. Trump's administration's "apparently tough but actually soft" stance strengthened the TACO consensus, but Trump may not always "follow the rules", so the risk of TACO trading reversal should be watched, and attention should be paid to the progress of EU - US and China - US trade negotiations [1]. - The better - than - expected non - farm employment data in June showed that the US labor market remained resilient, and the sufficient condition for the Fed to cut interest rates was not triggered, leading to a significant cooling of interest - rate cut trading. The trading mainline may return to Trump's tariff policy [12][15][16]. - After the expiration of the reciprocal tariff suspension period, Trump's tariff policy was "apparently tough but actually soft", further strengthening the market's TACO trading consensus [20][22]. - In the third quarter, the macro trading mainline may revolve around TACO trading. The potential risk was that Trump might become tougher on tariff policy after domestic pressure eased, which could lead to a reversal of TACO trading [22][31]. - The next - stage macro trading mainline still revolved around Trump's tariff policy. There was a possibility of switching from TACO trading to interest - rate cut trading in September. Attention should be paid to the EU - US trade negotiations and the China - US trade negotiations after August 12 [4][32]. 3. Summary According to the Table of Contents 3.1 Third - Quarter Overseas Macro Mainline Recalibration 3.1.1 Non - farm Data and Interest - rate Cut Trading - The US added 147,000 non - farm jobs in June, higher than the market expectation, and the unemployment rate dropped to 4.1%, indicating the resilience of the US labor market. The government sector's employment increase supported the data, while the private sector's employment declined, showing some structural problems [12]. - Inflation was a necessary but not sufficient condition for the Fed to cut interest rates, while a significant weakening of the labor market was a sufficient condition. The good labor data in June likely closed the door for a July interest - rate cut, and interest - rate cut trading cooled [15][16]. 3.1.2 Trump's Tariff Policy - Before the expiration of the reciprocal tariff suspension period on July 9, Trump's administration adopted a "tough - and - soft" negotiation strategy. It sent tariff letters to 22 countries in two batches on July 7 and 9 [2][20]. - In terms of countries, the first two batches of letter - receiving countries were mainly Asian countries, with a "warning" meaning. In terms of tax rates, except for Brazil, only three countries had higher new tariff rates, and the increase was small. In terms of the implementation period, the new tariffs would be implemented on August 1, about three weeks later than the original plan [20][21]. - Trump's "apparently tough but actually soft" tariff policy strengthened the market's TACO trading consensus. After the letters were sent, the stock markets in Japan and South Korea showed a "bad news is good news" trend [22]. 3.1.3 Potential Risks of TACO Trading Reversal - Compared with April, Trump's domestic pressure had eased. The US financial market had recovered, and the "Great Beauty" bill had passed, which was a major victory for Trump [22][23][25]. - After the "Great Beauty" bill was passed, Trump's administration might shift its policy focus to tariffs to increase tariff revenue, promote re - industrialization, and strengthen the "victory narrative" for the 2026 mid - term elections [27]. - Trump's administration showed a tendency to weaponize tariff policy, such as significantly increasing the tariff rate on Brazil, which might lead to a reversal of TACO trading [29][31].

Group 1: Market Reaction - Trump's announcement to delay tariff negotiations until August 1 and impose 25% tariffs on Japanese and South Korean products, as well as up to 40% on products from 12 other countries, resulted in a modest decline of 0.2% in the S&P 500 index [1]. - The South Korean stock market saw a significant increase, with the Seoul Composite Index rising by 1.5% at one point, indicating a positive market sentiment despite the tariff threats [1]. - Analysts suggest that the market's calm response indicates a belief that the tariffs will not have a substantial effect on economic growth or corporate profits [3].

即便零售行业高管也对"TACO交易"抱有乐观态度。"TACO"是"特朗普总是退缩（Trump Always Chickens Out）"的缩 写。 咨询公司AlixPartners的最新调查显示，在经历数周贸易政策变动、初步协议及复杂的法庭挑战后，部分零售商高管开 始对特朗普所谓的"对等"关税持更乐观态度。 一项于6月1日对品牌、零售商及其他消费品公司高管的调查发现，多数受访者预计总统将在7月9日"对等"关税90天暂 停期结束后，撤回对欧盟、越南、印度和墨西哥的高额关税。 来自上述地区及数十个其他国家的进口商品正面临10%的关税。但随着特朗普政府试图与各国敲定贸易协议，多数调 查受访者预计，谈判结束后10%的关税将继续生效，而非维持4月2日最初实施的更高税率。 消费品公司和零售商目前在为哪些关税情景做规划？ 对许多零售商而言，越南已成为下一个制造业前沿。东南亚国家与华盛顿的谈判备受关注，也是近几个月许多高管最 大的担忧之一。 AlixPartners合伙人兼董事总经理索尼娅·拉平斯基（Sonia Lapinsky）表示，在特朗普宣布并随后暂时降低高额"对 等"关税后的几周里，许多高管担心税率最终会高于10%。 ...

当地时间周三，在众议院筹款委员会的听证会上，美国财政部长贝森特在回应民主党议员质询时明确表 示："对于那些善意谈判的国家——或如欧盟这样的贸易集团——我们极有可能延长期限以继续善意谈 判。但如果有人不谈判，那我们就不会延期。" 这是特朗普政府首次公开承认其关税时间表存在灵活性，距离7月8日大限仅剩四周时间，目前白宫仅与 英国达成了一项初步协议。 特朗普本人周三也表示愿意延长7月8日期限，但认为这"不太必要"。他透露正与约15个国家进行贸易 谈判，包括韩国、日本和欧盟，并将在一到两周内向其他数十个国家发出概述贸易协议条款的信函。 另据报道，欧盟方面同样预期谈判将延续至7月9日期限之后。欧盟内部人士透露，最好情况下是在截止 日期前就协议原则达成一致，然后继续谈判具体细节。 "TACO"交易再次点燃？ 在全球贸易战阴云笼罩两个月多后，美国终于释放出第一个实质性让步信号。 贝森特的表态标志着特朗普政府在其关税政策上的首次公开让步，也让华尔街那些押注"TACO交 易"（特朗普总是退缩）的投资者再次看到希望。 这一策略源于4月初的市场动荡：特朗普4月2日宣布的关税规模之大、范围之广超出预期，导致全球金 融市场接近恐慌。 ...
