Nucor Leads S&P 500 On Trump's 50% Steel, Aluminum Tariffs
President Trump's Friday announcement that steel and aluminum tariffs will double to 50% on June 4 sent shares of U.S. producers surging early Monday, including Nucor, Cleveland-Cliffs and Century Aluminum. Trump made the announcement at a Friday rally near Pittsburgh, celebrating Nippon Steel's deal to buy U.S. Steel, which he blessed after the Japanese company pledged to build a new mill and double its spending plan. "Nobody's going to get around that," Trump said Friday, in announcing the 50% steel tariff.

President Trump's trade agenda is on hold as he waits on a call with Xi Jinping
An array of charges and countercharges over the weekend between the US and China raised the stakes of a long-awaited call between leaders of the two countries as relations hit new turbulence over tariffs and other issues. US President Trump and Chinese President Xi Jinping have significant issues to iron out, from critical minerals to semiconductors. They have led to increasingly hostile commentary from both sides, putting last month's agreement to lower tariffs for 90 days in a tenuous position. National Economic Council Director Kevin Hassett even suggested Sunday on ABC that trade negotiations with other nations are being held up by the wait for this call between Trump and Xi. He explained why his previous predictions of deals have failed to materialize, saying it's because "the trade team has been focused 100% like a laser beam on the China matter." Once a call resolves the China issues, he added, "then we're going to take [other] deals into the Oval." But it's far from unclear whether a call between the two leaders, who apparently have not spoken since before Trump's inauguration, can resolve the growing issues. The uncertainty is more pronounced by weeks of promises that a call is in the offing, with still no clarity on when it will even take place. A range of Trump officials were pressed over the weekend and offered new uncertainty. Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent expressed hope on CBS for "something very soon," while Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick promised on Fox that Trump is "going to go work it out" without offering a timeline. Hassett added he was hoping for a call this week, but said, "you never know in international relations." Whenever the call takes place, the countries will have a series of thorny issues to discuss with a dispute over critical minerals perhaps the most front and center. Trump and his team are charging that China has already violated the 90-day trade truce by not loosening trade restrictions for these building blocks in everything from computers to electric vehicle batteries to jet engines to medical devices. Read more: What Trump's tariffs mean for the economy and your wallet China holds a dominant position in the world's reserves of many of these key minerals, as well as in the capacity to refine them. Bessent added on CBS that China is "holding back products that are essential for the industrial supply chains of India, of Europe, and that is not what a reliable partner does." The Chinese Ministry of Commerce reacted Monday morning to the weekend's charges by denying the Trump administration's claims and accusing the US of its own actions to undermine the deal. Issues that the Chinese government cited, according to a translation by Chinese state media, were new export controls on semiconductors, the halting of chip design software, as well as the revocation of Chinese student visas. "If the U.S. insists on its own way and continues to damage China's interests, China will continue to take resolute and forceful measures to safeguard its legitimate rights and interests," a ministry spokesperson said, according to the translation. The Chinese added that the US actions have "severely violated the consensus" reached in Geneva during last month's talks as well as during a Jan. 17 call between Trump and Xi, the last time they say the two men spoke. The growing war of words also comes as both sides appear willing to escalate, with Trump offering a critique of China Friday by saying they "violated a big part of the agreement we made." "I'm sure that I'll speak to President Xi and hopefully we'll work that out," he added during that Oval Office appearance. Lutnick added Sunday that China was slow-rolling a deal and, in response, "we are taking certain actions to show them what it feels like on the other side of that equation." The back-and-forth also comes as Trump's tariff power remains in question after a US trade court blocked some of Trump's most prominent tariffs before a federal court paused enforcement pending appeal. Trump and his team have expressed confidence for days that their appeal — which is expected to eventually reach the Supreme Court — will be successful, but they maintain they have plenty of other tariff authorities that can be used instead.

London Mayor Threatens To Reopen Donald Trump Rift After Swiping At 'Inward-Looking' U.S. On Opening Day Of SXSW London
London Mayor Sadiq Khan has used the opening day keynote of the inaugural SXSW London to criticize an 'inward-looking mentality,' 'uncertainty and political turmoil' in the U.S. As he laid out why London is a 'creative hotbed, a gateway to the world and a hub for talent, trade, tech and innovation,' Khan threatened to reopen rifts between himself and Donald Trump. More from Deadline In Da Anti-Clemency Club: No Sean "Diddy" Combs Pardon From Trump, 50 Cent Vows Paramount Plan To Pay Off Trump Sparks California Senate Probe, Requests For Ex-CBS News Brass To Testify '60 Minutes' Veteran Lesley Stahl Expects To Soon Be "Mourning, Grieving" Paramount Settlement Of "Frivolous" Trump Lawsuit 'We believe we can do business in a way that achieves commercial gains at the same time as advancing the common good,' he said of the city for which he has presided for nearly a decade. 'So at the time when there's so much uncertainty and political turmoil across the pond, defined by an inward looking mentality, I'm going to reach out to international investors, businesses and creators to say that London offers you the opposite.' Khan and the POTUS have a chequered history. They have both been publicly critical of each other over the years, with Trump blasting Khan's record on crime and calling him a 'stone cold loser,' while Khan has described Trump's insults as 'childish.' Khan used the opening SXSW speech to lay down a marker for London's position on the world stage as the UK negotiates trade deals with the EU, India and U.S. 'London is somewhere that is resolutely pro-business, pro-growth and pro-freedom of expression and by new trade deals – which means the UK is tearing down barriers to trade, not putting up walls – there's never been a better time to come and create, collaborate and invest in our city,' he added. 'Elsewhere, you might see uncertainty and efforts to wind back the clocks on human rights, on individual liberties, on freedom of press, on democracy, but not in London. In London, you find a city which stands strong as a bus against hate and a city which shines bright as a beacon of hope, of progress and of possibility.' He said the conversations taking place this week at SXSW are 'so consequential' and reiterated a desire for London to be a 'global center for AI investment and innovation.' Khan joked that his 'Texan friends' who organize SXSW had 'brought the weather' with them on a sunny opening SXSW day in the sometimes 'cold, grey and rainy' UK capital. He described SXSW as a 'moment of creative synergy' with 'London's spirit meeting Austin's swagger.' 'It's like Big Ben started wearing cowboy boots and made a podcast,' he joked. SXSW London runs all week, with the likes of Idris Elba and the CEOs of Letterboxd, OnlyFans and Twitch set to address crowds in Shoreditch, East London.
