Trump gives countries Wednesday deadline for ‘best offer' on trade talks

WASHINGTON — President Trump has given countries a Wednesday deadline to make their best offers on trade — with the White House calling it a 'deadline' to submit offers to avoid massive reciprocal tariffs due to take effect on July 8. The office of the US Trade Representative Jamieson Greer sent a letter, reported Monday by Reuters, 'to all of our trading partners just to give them a friendly reminder that the deadline is coming up,' White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt confirmed at her Tuesday briefing. Greer, Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent and Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick 'are in talks with many of our key trading partners around the globe… and they continue to be engaged in those discussions. And this letter was simply to remind these countries that the deadline is approaching and the President expects good deals, and we are on track for that,' Leavitt said. 3 White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt confirmed Tuesday that countries have been told to submit their best trade proposals. AP 3 Trump wants countries to submit their best offers by Wednesday. Al Drago / Pool via CNP / Leavitt added that 'each country has unique advantages and unique challenges to it, based on their markets and what they export to us and what we export to them. And so that's why the president smartly advised his trade team to engage in tailor-made deal-making. And we saw that with the United Kingdom, and we will see that with other countries as well.' Trump will sign orders later Tuesday to increase tariffs on steel and aluminum to 50% — after previously tightening 25% rates to end exceptions for top importers. Trump on April 2 announced sweeping 'reciprocal' tariffs on countries, as well as a new 10% baseline tariff on most nations, which is roughly triple the prior rate. He paused most of the reciprocal tariffs shortly after they took effect to allow for trade talks. Thus far, Trump has reached deals-in-principle with China and the UK, though neither has been formally drafted and ratified — as a court battle rages over the legality of the reciprocal levies. The Chinese deal in May ended a tit-for-tat escalation that saw US tariffs rocket to about 145% before they were reduced to 30% pursuant to the agreement. Trump is expected to speak with Chinese President Xi Jinping this week to discuss the status of talks on a final deal, as well as his frustration that Beijing has not relaxed continued export restrictions on rare earth elements essential for batteries and high-tech equipment. The UK pact left in effect the new 10% baseline tariff while exempting 100,000 UK-made cars per year from Trump's new 25% global auto tariff. London, in turn, is due to drop its ethanol fuel tariff from 19% to zero, allowing market access to the corn-based fuel worth up to $700 million — while the US eliminates tariffs on British-made airplane parts, including Rolls-Royce engines. 3 US Trade Representative Jamieson Greer, left, sent the letter to his counterparts overseas. AFP via Getty Images Trump, who has outlined tariffs as a way to protect or reshore major industries, previously suggested that his administration would unilaterally dictate new and lower 'reciprocal' rates if need be. The original rates were loosely correlated with the size of a country's trade deficit with the US. Trump also has indicated some flexibility with low-wage countries hammered particularly hard by the looming rates. Nations such as Bangladesh (with a 37% assessed reciprocal rate), Sri Lanka (44%) and Mauritius (40%), for example, are important cogs in the global textile trade due to cheap labor. 'We're not looking to make sneakers and T-shirts. We want to make military equipment. We want to make big things. We want to make, do the AI thing,' Trump told a Post reporter on May 25. 'I'm not looking to make T-shirts, to be honest. I'm not looking to make socks. We can do that very well in other locations. We are looking to do chips and computers and lots of other things, and tanks and ships.'

Taylor Swift's Album Surges 400% In Streams Following Her Major Rights News

Taylor Swift's master rights win drives a 430% streaming surge for Speak Now and boosts all six of ... More her early albums on Spotify, per new data from Spotify. LONDON, ENGLAND - AUGUST 15: (EDITORIAL USE ONLY AND NO COMMERCIAL USE AT ANY TIME. NO USE ON PUBLICATION COVERS). Taylor Swift performs on stage during the "Taylor Swift | The Eras Tour" at Wembley Stadium on August 15, 2024 in London, England. (Photo by) Taylor Swift shocked millions of fans and the entire music industry on Friday (May 30) with perhaps the most exciting announcement of her career. After years of public feuds and four re-recorded album releases, the singer-songwriter has finally gained ownership over the master rights for her first six full-lengths. Those rights had been sold — more than once — away from her via musician manager Scooter Braun. Those moves led Swift to announce her Taylor's Version album series, which saw her re-record and re-release the projects that turned her into a superstar. Following the announcement, excitement around Swift's catalog surged, and millions of people rushed to streaming platforms, especially Spotify, to listen to her work. Some diehard fans had previously avoided her first six albums, preferring instead to listen to the Taylor's Version re-recordings, if available. But now that the Grammy winner financially benefits from streams and sales of her earliest releases, there's no reason for her most ardent supporters to stay away. Streams of Swift's first six albums skyrocketed on Friday when she shared the great news. Spotify provided data to The Hollywood Reporter highlighting which titles experienced the greatest gains. While specific streaming figures weren't shared, all half-dozen of her early Big Machine projects — from her self-titled debut through 2017's Reputation — at least doubled in total streams when compared to the month before the singer's rights announcement. Some might have expected Reputation to be the greatest beneficiary, since fans were most eagerly awaiting its re-release as a Taylor's Version. However, in the letter Swift shared to announce her acquisition, she detailed that she has not yet completed that re-recording—and at this point, may never do so. Interestingly, Reputation wasn't the top gainer. That honor went to Speak Now, which saw its streams climb by 430%. That title appeared as Speak Now (Taylor's Version) in mid-2023, and immediately topped the Billboard 200. The only two of Swift's six earliest albums that haven't yet been re-recorded and re-released — her self-titled debut and Reputation — earned the second and third-most significant bumps. Taylor Swift rose by 220%, while Reputation grew by 175%. Three more early Swift efforts also grew by more than 100% in streams on Spotify following her May 30 revelation. Fearless climbed by 160%, Red jumped 150%, and 1989 surged 110%. All of these collections, along with Speak Now (Taylor's Version), have already been re-recorded and were massively successful upon their re-releases. These streaming increases, which represent just one day of activity, will impact the Billboard charts next week, and will likely help these titles soar.

UK Builders Still Able to Hire From Abroad Under Visa Clampdown

Construction workers from abroad will still be able to migrate to the UK despite tighter visa restrictions announced by the government, Home Secretary Yvette Cooper said, as Labour attempts to slash migration without damaging critical sectors of the economy. Speaking to Parliament's Home Affairs Committee on Tuesday, Cooper said officials had already identified a series of occupations that would not appear on the new Temporary Shortage List. That list will allow employers to bring workers into the country who would not otherwise be eligible, because the job is classed as below degree level.
