President Donald Trump announced today a sweeping new tariff policy that will impose a minimum 10% levy on nearly all goods entering the United States, effective April 5. The policy excludes Canada and Mexico, with both countries exempt from the 10% baseline tariff and reciprocal levies for now. However, non-compliant goods from those nations will continue to face a 25% tariff, originally imposed on the grounds that they were failing to curb the flow of drugs and crime into the United States. The 10% tariff would only apply if the current 25% duties on Canadian and Mexican imports are lifted or suspended. In addition to the general import levies, the plan also imposes a separate 25% tariff on all foreign-made automobiles, which takes effect at midnight ET. Building on that, the administration is also implementing “reciprocal” tariffs on approximately 60 nations, calculated at half their current total trade barriers on US exports. Among the major US trade partners impacted, China will face a 34% tariff, the EU 20%, Vietnam 46%, Japan 24%, India 26%, Taiwan 32%, Indonesia 32%, and Brazil 10%. These country-specific rates take effect April 9. “This is not full reciprocal. This is kind reciprocal,” Trump said. Trump declared a national emergency linked to the US trade deficit, which exceeded $918 billion in 2024, invoking the International Emergency Economic Powers Act to authorize the measures. “For years, hard-working American citizens were forced to sit on the sidelines as other nations got rich and powerful, much of it at our expense. But now it’s our turn to prosper,” Trump said from the White House Rose Garden. “I blame former presidents and past leaders who weren’t doing their job. They let it happen — to an extent that nobody can even believe,” he added. The administration projects that the tariffs will generate hundreds of billions in new revenue and boost domestic industry. Trump said the plan aims to open foreign markets, dismantle trade barriers, and increase production at home, which he believes will lead to stronger competition and lower prices for consumers. Markets reacted swiftly to the announcement: Bitcoin briefly surged to $88,000 before settling at $84,500, the 10-year US Treasury yield declined, and futures tied to major US indexes fell sharply. S&P 500 futures dropped 1.9%, while Nasdaq 100 futures slid 2.7% as investors absorbed the full scope of Trump’s sweeping trade action. Story in development

Federal Reserve Chair Jerome Powell is expected to move toward renewed quantitative easing (QE), potentially focused on the U.S. Treasury bond market. This expectation follows a reported meeting between Powell and Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent in early March. In a blog post , BitMEX co-founder Arthur Hayes suggested Powell is preparing to scale back the Fed’s current quantitative tightening (QT) program. Hayes believes the Fed will support Treasury markets with new liquidity injections, possibly starting this summer. According to central banking observers, Bessent pointed out to Powell during their meeting that upcoming Federal Open Market Committee (FOMC) monetary policy decisions must align with the Treasury Department’s significant financing needs. The March meeting reportedly raised the urgency of potentially resuming QE to help absorb the large volume of new Treasury bond issuance required to manage ongoing federal deficits and handle substantial government debt rollovers smoothly. However, capital gains tax receipts remain a major funding source for the federal government. Those tax receipts depend heavily on rising equity market valuations to meet projections.

His administration’s focus remains centered on attempting to rebalance the large U.S. current account deficit and encourage shifts back toward more domestic manufacturing activity. President Trump has maintained publicly since his first term in 2016 that the U.S. trade deficit, particularly with China, is unsustainable for the nation’s long-term health. Historical economic context reinforces concerns about these long-term trade trajectories. China’s 1994 currency devaluation and its subsequent 2001 entry into the World Trade Organization (WTO) are often linked by economists to the decades-long offshoring of significant U.S. manufacturing capacity that followed. The result was a deep and persistent U.S. trade deficit over many years, as official current account data confirms. Trump’s proposed reversal of that long-term trend requires major domestic industrial policy support and likely substantial private investment. The Federal Reserve’s independent monetary policy decisions play a critical role in potentially enabling or hindering these broader fiscal and trade policy shifts pursued by the administration. Persistently tight monetary conditions, for example, risk slowing overall economic growth and potentially weakening equity market performance significantly.
