Trump, EU's Von Der Leyen cite conflicting details on trade deal
President Trump and European Commission President Von der Leyen's new trade agreement reveals discrepancies in key details, highlighting the challenges in its implementation. The EU agreed to a 15% tariff on most exports to the US, but disagreements persist regarding pharmaceuticals, steel, and aluminum. Tired of too many ads? Remove Ads Tired of too many ads? Remove Ads President Donald Trump and European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen appear to differ on some key details in their new trade agreement, underscoring the difficulty they may have in turning this deal into a European Union said it would accept a 15% tariff on nearly all its exports to the US. Trump told reporters that the bloc also agreed to open up its 'countries to trade at zero tariff.'After he met with von der Leyen Sunday, Trump said that the deal would not include pharmaceuticals, a contentious point in the negotiations, seeming to imply they would be subject to a higher a separate news conference, von der Leyen said, 'The EU agreed we have 15% for pharmaceuticals.' But she added, 'Whatever decisions later – by the president of the US – that's on a different sheet of paper.'Senior US officials later said that the two sides agreed on a 15% tariff level for the EU's pharmaceutical exports. A separate Section 232 probe on pharmaceuticals is still coming over the next three weeks, but the EU tariff level will remain at 15%, the officials US has initiated investigations into whether the import of certain products, such as aerospace and semiconductors, poses a national security threat to the country. This could lead to separate tariffs on some accords typically require years of negotiations and can run thousands of pages long. Talks on the preliminary agreement clinched on Sunday began in April and concrete details appear EU and US also diverged on another controversial sector, with Trump saying that the 50% tariff on steel and aluminum 'stays the way it is.' Von der Leyen said that metal 'tariffs will be cut and a quota system will be put in place.'The deal doesn't cover the EU's steel and aluminum exports, which will remain subject to 50% tariffs, according to senior US officials. Aerospace tariffs, meanwhile, will remain at 0% pending the outcome of a Section 232 probe, the officials der Leyen argued that she won certainty and stability for companies on both sides of the Atlantic. But it's far from clear that the EU and US will be able to iron out all their differences on the many contentious issues yet to deal with.'The focus will now turn to interpretation and implementation risk, posing a mix of political and technical questions,' Carsten Nickel, deputy director of research at Teneo, wrote in a note. 'Given the nature of the deal, major uncertainties are likely to persist.'

Asian shares mixed as Wall Street rally lifts US stocks to fresh records
Stock markets in Asia were mixed on Monday after US stocks rose to more records as they closed out another winning week. US futures and oil prices were higher ahead of trade talks in Stockholm between US and Chinese officials. European futures rose after the European Union forged a deal with the Trump administration calling for 15 per cent tariffs on most exports to the US. The agreement announced after President Donald Trump and European Commission chief Ursula von der Leyen met briefly at Trump's Turnberry golf course in Scotland staves off far higher import duties on both sides that might have sent shock waves through economies around the globe. Tokyo's Nikkei 225 index lost 1 per cent to 41,056.81 after doubts surfaced over what exactly the trade truce between Japan and US President Donald Trump, especially the $550 billion pledge of investment in the US by Japan, will entail. Terms of the deal are still being negotiated and nothing has been formalized in writing, said an official, who insisted on anonymity to detail the terms of the talks. The official suggested the goal was for a $550 billion fund to make investments at Trump's direction. Hong Kong's Hang Seng index gained 0.4 per cent to 25,490.45 while the Shanghai Composite index lost 0.2 per cent to 3,587.25. Taiwan's Taiex rose 0.3 per cent. CK Hutchison, a Hong Kong conglomerate that's selling ports at the Panama Canal, said it may seek a Chinese investor to join a consortium of buyers in a move that might please Beijing but could also bring more U.S. scrutiny to a geopolitically fraught deal. CK Hutchison's shares fell 0.6 per cent on Monday in Hong Kong. Elsewhere in Asia, South Korea's Kospi was little changed at 3,195.49, while Australia's S&P/ASX 200 rose 0.3 per cent to 8,688.40. India's Sensex slipped 0.1 per cent. Markets in Thailand were closed for a holiday. On Friday, the S&P 500 rose 0.4 per cent to 6,388.64, setting an all-time for the fifth time in a week. The Dow Jones Industrial Average climbed 0.5 per cent to 44,901.92, while the Nasdaq composite added 0.2 per cent, closing at 21,108.32 to top its own record. Deckers, the company behind Ugg boots and Hoka shoes, jumped 11.3 per cent after reporting stronger profit and revenue for the spring than analysts expected. Its growth was particularly strong outside the United States, where revenue soared nearly 50 per cent. But Intell fell 8.5 per cent after reporting a loss for the latest quarter, when analysts were looking for a profit. The struggling chipmaker also said it would cut thousands of jobs and eliminate other expenses as it tries to turn around its fortunes. Intel, which helped launch Silicon Valley as the U.S. technology hub, has fallen behind rivals like Nvidia and Advanced Micro Devices while demand for artificial intelligence chips soars. Companies are under pressure to deliver solid growth in profits to justify big gains for their stock prices, which have rallied to record after record in recent weeks. Wall Street has zoomed higher on hopes that President Donald Trump will reach trade deals with other countries that will lower his stiff proposed tariffs, along with the risk that they could cause a recession and drive up inflation. Trump has recently announced deals with Japan and the Philippines, and the next big deadline is looming on Friday, Aug 1. Apart from trade talks, this week will also feature a meeting by the Federal Reserve on interest rates. Trump again on Thursday lobbied the Fed to cut rates, which he has implied could save the US government money on its debt repayments. Fed Chair Jerome Powell has said he is waiting for more data about how Trump's tariffs affect the economy and inflation before making a move. The widespread expectation on Wall Street is that the Fed will wait until September to resume cutting interest rates. In other dealings early Monday, US benchmark crude oil gained 24 cents to $65.40 per barrel. Brent crude, the international standard, also added 24 cents to $67.90 per barrel. The dollar rose to 147.72 Japanese yen from 147.71 yen. The euro slipped to $1.1755 from $1.1758.

US-China set to resume Stockholm talks: From Xi-Trump meet to tariff truce, here's what to expect
Top U.S. and Chinese economic officials are resuming trade talks in Stockholm on Monday, aiming to extend a temporary truce by 90 days and prevent a new round of sharply higher tariffs. With an August 12 deadline approaching, analysts say a short-term pause is more likely than a breakthrough on core economic disputes. Without a deal, U.S. duties could revert to triple-digit levels, posing risks to global supply chains. The talks follow a major U.S.-EU trade agreement on Sunday, in which the European Union accepted a 15% tariff on most of its goods exports to the U.S. and pledged $750 billion in energy purchases and $600 billion in investments. No such deal is expected from the U.S.-China side.

We really sort of made a deal with China, but we'll see how that goes,' said President Donald Trump on Sunday, before announcing the EU agreement. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like You might be interested Undo Here's what to expect from US-China meet According to a South China Morning Post report, both sides may agree to hold off on new tariffs or export restrictions for three more months. The U.S. Treasury declined to comment. Meanwhile, Financial Times reported that Washington has paused new export curbs on tech products to avoid disrupting negotiations, though Reuters could not verify that independently. Earlier discussions in Geneva and London focused on reversing retaliatory tariffs and restoring trade in rare earth minerals and AI chips. However, structural issues—such as China's export-led model and U.S. tech controls—remain unresolved. Live Events Also Read: US, China to launch new talks on tariff truce extension, easing path for Trump-Xi meeting 'I'd be surprised if there is an early harvest on some of these things but an extension of the ceasefire for another 90 days seems to be the most likely outcome,' Reuters quoted Scott Kennedy of the Center for Strategic and International Studies, as saying. There is also speculation about a possible Trump-Xi meeting in late October. Sun Chenghao of Tsinghua University said such a summit could support mutual concessions. 'The future prospect of the heads of state summit is very beneficial to the negotiations because everyone wants to reach an agreement or pave the way in advance,' Sun said. Beijing is expected to push for easing of U.S. tariffs and tech export controls. China argues that fulfilling past U.S. purchase commitments would help reduce the $295.5 billion trade deficit recorded in 2024.
