×Monday 28th July 2025 NAB Markets Research Disclaimer Financial Services Guide | Information on our services - NAB President Trump announced a trade deal with the EU on Sunday, that sees a 15% tariff on most goods, cars included. Aluminium and steel remain at 50%. In exchange, according to Bloomberg, Europe will not levy any tariffs and will invest an extra $600bn in the US and spend $750bn on US energy. The deadline for a China deal also seems to have been pushed back 90 days. NAB’s Rodrigo Catril talks through the likely market reaction today, with equities already elevated on Friday from earnings results and some significant earnings results in the week ahead. Also on Friday the US President indicated that it would be too problematic to fire Jerome Powell, but will he still hold that opinion when the Fed holds rates again this week? Hosted on Acast.

This week Rod Sims, chair of the think tank The Super Power Institute, joins Phil to talk about Australia’s green iron opportunity. He says we have all the ingredients – the raw materials and the environment – to produce green iron, rather than shipping iron ore and coking coal overseas for carbon-intensive processing. But he admits in the short-term Australian produced green iron will be a more expensive proposition for markets like China and, in the absence of global carbon pricing, the government will need to step in with subsidies. The long-term opportunity, though, will make it all worthwhile. The Institute's own figures suggest green iron could generate $386 billion annually in exports by 2060, compared to around $120 billion now for iron ore. That requires a strategy and deep pockets from the government. Phil asks, are they on board with this? Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.…

Phil asks if he could have seen the last rate cut in this cycle. Meanwhile Michelle Bullock reiterated the cautious approach of the RBA at a lunch in Sydney yesterday.

Well, the economic data out over night was largely good news. Retail sales were stronger than expected in June, the Philly Fed Manufacturing Index perked up, initial jobless claims fell. As Phil suggests to NAB’s Gavin Friend, there was a lot to like. The threat of looming tariffs seems to be largely ignored, as though investors don’t think they will happen.

But, as NAB’s ken Crompton outlines, the data is more likely to delay the Fed. Why? Because markets responded positively to the data initially, on further examination it’s clear that inflation is picking up in areas most impacted by tariffs. A cut at the end of the month from the Fed now looks less likely.

Friday 11th July 2025 NAB Markets Research Disclaimer Financial Services Guide | Information on our services - NAB Once again markets have shrugged off a tariff proclamation from President Trump. 50% could be levied on imports from Brazil, not because of trade (Brazil has a deficit) but in response to a trial against former President Bolsonaro. It’s a new direction for Trump’s tariff policy, but markets have taken it in their stride, with US equities rising today. NAB’s Ray Attrill says there are also questions about whether tariffs will be that damaging to the US economy after all.

President Trump has fallen in approval ratings since taking office. Does that mean he’ll lose seats in the House or the Senate in the Mid-Terms next year? It’s still a way off, of course, but it would be useful to know whether the President’s policy agenda will continue at pace for a year and a half, or three and a half years. Dr Debra Leiter is an associate professor with the Department of Political Science & Philosophy at the University of Missouri-Kansas City. She says there’s an iron law of mid-term loss, where the President’s party invariably sheds support and can lose control of the Senate or the House. But, despite his falling approval ratings, there’s a chance President Trump will buck the trend. Prof. Leiter tells Phil that you get a more accurate view of the outcome if you ask voters who they think will win, not who they will vote for. And, right now, that’s showing a clear victory for the Republicans. Then what happens? If President Trump manages to maintain control, who follows him into the White House?

Jessica Geraghty, senior associate for economic prosperity and democracy at the Grattan Institute, says we don’t have to look too far for inspiration on how to tackle the issue. Beyond changes to tax policies, we should also be looking to places like Singapore and Japan, where the focus is on longer healthier lives. Our cognitive abilities are also surviving g further into old age.
