Many of President Trump's trade deals include pledges to buy more American LNG, but it's questionable whether the US can meet that demand, writes @SStapczynski https://t.co/9BeQYmlPov ...

A CEO actually asked me over the weekend, do you think that these trade deals are going to be open for negotiation in an ongoing way. Not the ones that haven't been reached, but even the ones that have been reached. So for example, you know, in Europe, there's going to be a debate, I imagine, between the US and Europe over time about uh big tech and digital taxes and the like and whether the tariff piece in in the future becomes a chess piece in that meaning that either you move it, you know, you move the t ...

I think what we're seeing emerging is President Trump see tariffs as a way to not only reorder the global trading system that he's complained about since the 1980s, but to get countries in line with what he thinks the US priorities are. We've seen it most recently with India where he says we're going to put a 25% tariff on you across the board and we're going to penalize you for buying Russian oil. He's also intervened in the Cambodia Thailand conflict and said trade is going to be painful for you if you do ...

For more on all of this as well as the markets, let's turn to David Zervos. He's CBC contributor and chief market strategist at Jeffre. David, always great to see you.Um, fantastic to get your perspective because you were at the Fed, correct. You're at a Fed economist at one point in your life, >> many, many years ago. >> Um, is there any reason in your view as a market strategist now to question the methodology of how jobs are calculated that there might be a political >> aspect to it.I mean, I think we al ...

right now. Joining us now to talk about this and more is Joe Lavorgna. He is counselor to Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent.And he joins us now from the white House. Joe, the jobs numbers a little lower than the headline, but the attention is on the revisions. How do we explain those revisions.>> Brian, have actually been quite consistent the last few years where you've had this tendency, the numbers, to change quite dramatically. That might reflect post Covid response rates, which are a lot lower than where ...

Let's just start with these numbers, because the figure that we got that was below all estimates in the Bloomberg survey of economists to start. What's your reaction. Well, certainly we know they could have been better.But, you know, we look at the positive because we still have a net positive, almost a half a million new jobs since the president took office. Where did we see some of these gains. We saw them in health care. We're seeing them in construction. We are seeing the revisions.I know is something t ...

Watch as markets react to President Donald Trump formalizing an array of high tariff levels and trade deals he has announced in recent weeks. It is the latest escalation in his attempt to disrupt and reshape the global economic order. In a sweeping executive order, Trump made official his agreements with prominent trading partners such as the European Union, Japan, South Korea, the United Kingdom and the Philippines. Trump's order, which came hours before a self-imposed deadline for trade deals, also unilat ...

will take effect tomorrow. Does that include the new auto rates for instance on Japan, Korea, the EU. Is this all coming effective tomorrow.So the countries, some of the countries you just mentioned, Japan, South Korea, they have bespoke trade deals that the president would negotiate with countries all around the world to cut um tailormade trade deals depending on those countries. Challenges of the our 18 major trading partners, twothirds of those trading partners have a deal. We've sent out 17 letters to c ...
