Listen "US Trade Negotiations Continue This Week"
Episode Synopsis
Officials from Japan and South Korea are slated to begin trade negotiations with the United States this week. Early Monday, China's Ministry of Commerce said it firmly opposes any party reaching a deal at the expense of China’s interests. Those comments came as China claims Washington is using tariffs to coerce other countries to restrict economic and trade exchanges with Beijing. We get more perspective from Naomi Fink, Chief Global Strategist at Nikko Asset Management. She speaks with Bloomberg's Shery Ahn and Paul Allen. Plus - Chicago Fed President Austan Goolsbee warned against efforts to curtail the central bank’s independence, days after President Donald Trump expressed his displeasure with Fed Chair Jerome Powell. Last week, Trump posted on Truth Social that Powell’s “termination cannot come fast enough!” He hasn’t clarified whether that means he intends to find a way to fire the Fed chief, or is simply eager for Powell’s term to end as scheduled in May 2026. We get reaction from Alicia Garcia Herrero, Chief APAC Economist at Natixis.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
