Targeted Trump Tariffs; US Discussions on Ukraine-Russia

Bloomberg Daybreak: US Edition

On today's podcast:

1) Markets get a lift on word President Trump's tariffs will be more targeted. President Trump is preparing to announce "reciprocal tariffs" on April 2, targeting countries that have tariffs or barriers on US goods, but excluding some nations and blocs.

2) Separate ceasefire talks continue between the U-S, Ukraine and Russia. The White House aims to reach a truce agreement in the Russia-Ukraine war by April 20, but recognizes that the timeline may slip due to large gaps between the two sides' positions.

3) Mark Carney takes aim at Trump as he launches his election campaign in Canada. Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney has called an election for April 28, with polls showing a close contest between his Liberal Party and the Conservatives.

We're joined now by Bloomberg 0:11:44.080 --> 0:11:47.520 News Senior editor Derek Wallbank. Derek, good morning. What have 0:11:47.679 --> 0:11:50.319 we heard when it comes to the President's tariff plans 0:11:50.320 --> 0:11:53.439 at this point, Well, Nathan, you and I. 0:11:53.440 --> 0:11:56.520 Have talked at some length in prior conversations on how 0:11:56.559 --> 0:12:01.479 there kind of is an arbitrage moment between Donald Trump's 0:12:01.520 --> 0:12:05.720 maximalist threats and what actually gets done now. We have 0:12:05.920 --> 0:12:10.720 talked also about that a maximalist reading of what Trump 0:12:10.720 --> 0:12:14.239 has talked about with reciprocal tariffs would be an absolute 0:12:14.320 --> 0:12:19.480 administrative chore right to go through on thousands of product 0:12:19.800 --> 0:12:22.880 lines across more than one hundred countries and try and 0:12:22.960 --> 0:12:25.520 figure out who gets what and where all things are 0:12:25.559 --> 0:12:29.080 going for for not just reciprocal on tariffs but also 0:12:29.320 --> 0:12:32.160 non tariff things. It would be an absolute ton And 0:12:32.200 --> 0:12:37.760 so what we're given to understand is that Trump's coming 0:12:37.800 --> 0:12:40.800 wave of tariffs may be more targeted than what he 0:12:40.880 --> 0:12:47.640 had previously threatened. And we're still waiting for what details 0:12:47.640 --> 0:12:49.800 of that will look like. But you're already seeing a 0:12:49.800 --> 0:12:51.040 positive market. 0:12:50.720 --> 0:12:55.640 Response absolutely, with futures firmly in the green this morning. 0:12:55.800 --> 0:13:00.120 So what could this mean when it comes to future negotiation. 0:13:00.400 --> 0:13:04.600 We've seen Senator Danes of Montana in China over the 0:13:04.600 --> 0:13:07.840 weekend word that there are going to be negotiations all 0:13:07.880 --> 0:13:11.959 week long between the Assistant Trade Representative and Indian officials 0:13:12.000 --> 0:13:14.040 as well. Is it going to be a scramble ahead 0:13:14.080 --> 0:13:15.680 of this April second announcement? 0:13:17.360 --> 0:13:19.800 Well, you know, I do think that every country is 0:13:19.840 --> 0:13:22.560 looking forward to see what they can do and who 0:13:22.600 --> 0:13:25.120 they can meet with and where they can go. You know, 0:13:25.640 --> 0:13:29.680 I'm sat here in Asia right now, and Australia is 0:13:29.720 --> 0:13:32.600 trying to find a way forward to see how they 0:13:32.640 --> 0:13:38.480 can leverage their investments, including in planes and other things, 0:13:38.520 --> 0:13:43.560 to try and offset some other tariffs that would be 0:13:43.720 --> 0:13:47.600 you know, potentially considered. You know, so we're seeing a 0:13:47.600 --> 0:13:49.640 lot of those. I mean, I would note as well. 0:13:49.679 --> 0:13:53.559 You know, we pushed a story overnight Your Time about 0:13:54.000 --> 0:13:58.199 Christy Nome is going to Central and South America. One 0:13:58.200 --> 0:14:01.160 of those stops, she's going to meet with President of Mexico. 0:14:01.280 --> 0:14:03.960 I would imagine something like this will come up, not 0:14:04.160 --> 0:14:08.280 just talk about deportations and border security. So every single 0:14:08.360 --> 0:14:13.360 one of these opportunities that world leaders have is going 0:14:13.400 --> 0:14:15.680 to be a moment for them to press their case. 0:14:15.920 --> 0:14:19.920 We're seeing still a lot of uncertainty from those world 0:14:20.000 --> 0:14:23.360 leaders on how to engage the Trump administration. They go 0:14:23.440 --> 0:14:27.480 from a sort of elbows up mentality that comes from 0:14:27.480 --> 0:14:31.560 ice hockey that Canada is using, to a more kind 0:14:31.640 --> 0:14:36.960 of conversational, non confrontational push that Mexico is using. Everyone's 0:14:37.000 --> 0:14:39.040 trying to take notes from each other and see what 0:14:39.120 --> 0:14:39.920 might work best. 0:14:40.720 --> 0:14:42.880 So what could this mean when it comes to the 0:14:42.880 --> 0:14:46.240 idea of tariff's being a major revenue raiser. If we 0:14:46.480 --> 0:14:49.160 have a more targeted approach, will it be able to 0:14:49.240 --> 0:14:52.520 replace income taxes like President Trump has talked about in 0:14:52.560 --> 0:14:53.880 the past. Got about a minute left. 0:14:54.880 --> 0:14:56.640 Well, that is a bit of a catch twenty two, 0:14:56.680 --> 0:14:58.760 isn't it. Because the simple math says that the fewer 0:14:58.800 --> 0:15:01.600 tariffs that you actually levy, the less tariff revenue you're 0:15:01.640 --> 0:15:05.640 going to get. And so if Trump levy's less in 0:15:05.640 --> 0:15:07.880 the way of tariffs, he's going to get less revenue. 0:15:07.880 --> 0:15:11.440 That will give less revenue available for his domestic priorities. 0:15:11.480 --> 0:15:15.640 And remember, Republicans in Congress are already trying to figure 0:15:15.640 --> 0:15:18.880 out how to craft a big, beautiful bill, as the 0:15:18.880 --> 0:15:22.280 President has said, for some of his domestic priorities, as 0:15:22.320 --> 0:15:26.040 well as to extend his tax cuts as well as 0:15:26.120 --> 0:15:30.360 additional tax cuts that he has promised, all without exploding 0:15:30.360 --> 0:15:35.160 the deficit anymore. And that is a very very tall 0:15:35.400 --> 0:15:39.360 order indeed. So it's a lot of difficult decisions. We've 0:15:39.360 --> 0:15:41.480 had a lot of rhetoric, but there's going to be 0:15:41.520 --> 0:15:45.360 a lot of difficult decisions that have cost offsets attached 0:15:45.360 --> 0:15:45.760 to them. 0:15:45.920 --> 0:15:49.320 This is Bloombery Daybreak, Your Morning podcast and the stories 0:15:49.400 --> 0:15:52.440 making news from Wall Street to Washington and beyond. 0:15:52.680 --> 0:15:55.080 Look for us on your podcast feed by six am 0:15:55.120 --> 0:15:58.520 Eastern each morning, on Apple, Spotify, or anywhere else you listen. 0:15:58.720 --> 0:16:01.560 You can also listen live each morning starting at five 0:16:01.600 --> 0:16:04.320 am Wall Street Time on Bloomberg eleven three to zero 0:16:04.320 --> 0:16:07.240 in New York, Bloomberg ninety nine to one in Washington, 0:16:07.280 --> 0:16:11.240 Bloomberg ninety two nine in Boston, and nationwide on serious 0:16:11.440 --> 0:16:13.000 XM Channel one twenty one. 0:16:13.400 --> 0:16:16.120 Plus listen coast to coast on the Bloomberg Business app 0:16:16.160 --> 0:16:19.000 now with Apple CarPlay and Android Atto interfaces. 0:16:19.200 --> 0:16:22.240 And don't forget to subscribe to Bloomberg News Now.
