- 0:16Speaker 2: Market Shane Sally Harbor Resit Management with us, Hey, Shane,
- 0:20Speaker 2: get it Ryan. How markets react to Trump's latest trade
- 0:23Speaker 2: tariff announcements.
- 0:25Speaker 3: Well, mister Trump, he's pretty good at keeping us on
- 0:27Speaker 3: our toes. The US shear market futures, this S and
- 0:30Speaker 3: P futures is what's telling us the market expects to
- 0:33Speaker 3: happen tonight. Our time is down on point four percent
- 0:37Speaker 3: after mister Trump, he warned us that he's going to
- 0:39Speaker 3: put sending some letters out to people up to ten
- 0:42Speaker 3: to twelve on Friday, and he's going to start sitting
- 0:44Speaker 3: livies as much as seventy percent unilasterally a heat of
- 0:47Speaker 3: this July ninth deadline. So he's throwing a few We're
- 0:52Speaker 3: going to make this happen things today. He's come out
- 0:54Speaker 3: he's on time this afternoon and said he's going to
- 0:57Speaker 3: put an extra ten percent tariff on those countries.
- 0:59Speaker 4: Align with Brooks, this is.
- 1:00Speaker 3: The the emerging nations includes Russia and China, Brazil and
- 1:07Speaker 3: then adding to the US Treasury Secretary Scot the Cent
- 1:10Speaker 3: they said that here, mister Trump may impose April second
- 1:14Speaker 3: Liberation Day level tariffs on countries that don't reach a
- 1:17Speaker 3: deal beginning of the first of August.
- 1:19Speaker 4: Now that is different from the July to night.
- 1:22Speaker 3: So that suggests that face for you, you're going to
- 1:24Speaker 3: see this extension of tariff paise again.
- 1:27Speaker 4: So that's what capital markets are thinking.
- 1:28Speaker 3: We're all thinking US government's going to push tariff's pauses
- 1:32Speaker 3: out further. If we don't get that, and if we
- 1:35Speaker 3: actually get increased tariffs, that would be a surprise for
- 1:37Speaker 3: capital markets.
- 1:38Speaker 2: Yeah, okay, interesting. What about the RBA tomorrow their decision.
- 1:42Speaker 3: Yeah, so the IRBA, Australia's central bankers their bank in
- 1:46Speaker 3: Australia widely expected to deliberate a point two five percent cut.
- 1:50Speaker 3: That's at four thirty Zone time, and that would take
- 1:53Speaker 3: Australia's official illustrate down to three point six from three
- 1:56Speaker 3: point eight five. At the moment, it's the key for market,
- 1:59Speaker 3: it's all about tone inflations falling back to.
- 2:02Speaker 4: Within the irba's target bands.
- 2:04Speaker 3: They could do more cuts, but similarly, they might want
- 2:06Speaker 3: to wait and see how the three twenty five basis
- 2:09Speaker 3: points cuts through from December kick through. That would be
- 2:12Speaker 3: what's called a hawkish cut, so they'll cut rates and
- 2:15Speaker 3: then they'll say we're going to wait and see the
- 2:17Speaker 3: key thing from Zona. Course on Wednesday, we've got our
- 2:20Speaker 3: own reserve bank coming out and markets aren't expecting anything. Ryan,
- 2:23Speaker 3: It's very much steady as she goes. But there is
- 2:26Speaker 3: a growing view that the IRB has some room to
- 2:29Speaker 3: start talking about potentially cutting rates, and that would be
- 2:33Speaker 3: a what's called a doubvish hole, so they wouldn't cut,
- 2:36Speaker 3: but they'd start talking about potentially cutting. So quite a
- 2:38Speaker 3: big difference between the RBA and the RBNZ certainly is.
- 2:41Speaker 2: And we've got our call obviously this week as well.
- 2:43Speaker 2: What about OPEK cranking up the oil production. How's that
- 2:47Speaker 2: been received?
- 2:48Speaker 3: Yeah, actually quite poisonively, just the increase in production. So
- 2:53Speaker 3: IPEK places talking about increasing production by five hundred and
- 2:56Speaker 3: forty eight thousand barrels a day, very specific number, which
- 3:00Speaker 3: is up high then they previously indicated four hundred and
- 3:02Speaker 3: eleven thousand dollars barrels a day. What that's mean is
- 3:05Speaker 3: we're seeing the Brent oil price, the futures again, the
- 3:08Speaker 3: forward market, what markets may do overnight. New Zealand time
- 3:12Speaker 3: expecting their or price to fall by zero point seven percent,
- 3:14Speaker 3: so just under one percent to just over sixty eight
- 3:17Speaker 3: dollars US per barrel, and of course that lower all price,
- 3:20Speaker 3: they'd be helpful in terms of inflation relief, maybe allowing
- 3:23Speaker 3: some of those central bankers to think about cutting rates again.
- 3:26Speaker 4: Perhaps, Ryan, that'd be nice.
