Trade war cuts global economic growth outlook: OECD

The OECD slashed its annual global growth forecast on Tuesday, warning that US President Donald Trump's tariffs blitz would stifle the world economy -- hitting the United States especially hard. After 3.3-percent growth last year, the world economy is now expected to expand by a "modest" 2.9 percent in 2025 and 2026, the Paris-based Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development said. In its previous report in March, the OECD had forecast growth of 3.1 percent for 2025 and 3.0 percent for 2026. Since then, Trump has launched a wave of tariffs that has rattled financial markets. "The global outlook is becoming increasingly challenging," said the OECD, an economic policy group of 38 mostly wealthy countries. It said "substantial increases" in trade barriers, tighter financial conditions, weaker business and consumer confidence, and heightened policy uncertainty will all have "marked adverse effects on growth" if they persist. The OECD downgraded its 2025 growth forecast for the United States from 2.2 percent to 1.6 percent. The world's biggest economy is expected to slow further next year to 1.5 percent. Trump, who has insisted that the tariffs would spark a manufacturing revival and restore a US economic "Golden Age", posted on his Truth Social platform before the OECD report's publication: "Because of Tariffs, our Economy is BOOMING!" The OECD holds a ministerial meeting in Paris on Tuesday and Wednesday. US and EU trade negotiators are expected to hold talks on the sidelines of the gathering after Trump threatened to hit the European Union with 50-percent tariffs. The Group of Seven advanced economies is also holding a meeting focused on trade. "For everyone, including the United States, the best option is that countries sit down and get an agreement," OECD chief economist Alvaro Pereira said in an interview with AFP. "Avoiding further trade fragmentation is absolutely key in the next few months and years," Pereira said. Trump imposed in April a baseline tariff of 10 percent on imports from around the world. He unveiled higher tariffs on dozens of countries but has paused them until July to allow time for negotiations. The US president has also imposed 25-percent tariffs on cars and now plans to raise those on steel and aluminium to 50 percent on Wednesday. - US slowdown - In the OECD report, Pereira warned that "weakened economic prospects will be felt around the world, with almost no exception". He added that "lower growth and less trade will hit incomes and slow job growth". The outlook "has deteriorated" in the United States after the economy expanded by a robust 2.8 percent last year, the report said. The effective tariff rate on US merchandise imports has gone from two percent in 2024 to 15.4 percent, the highest since 1938, the OECD said. The higher rate and policy uncertainty "will dent household consumption and business investment growth", the report said. The OECD also blamed "high economic policy uncertainty, a significant slowdown in net immigration and a sizeable reduction in the federal workforce". While annual inflation is expected to "moderate" among the Group of 20 economies to 3.6 percent in 2025 and 3.2 percent in 2026, the United States is "an important exception". US inflation is expected to accelerate to just under four percent by the end of the year, two times higher than the Federal Reserve's target for consumer price increases. - Rising risks - The OECD slightly reduced its growth forecast for China -- which was hit with triple-digit US tariffs that have been temporarily lowered -- from 4.8 to 4.7 percent this year. Another country with a sizeable downgrade is Japan. The OECD cut the country's growth forecast from 1.1 percent to 0.7 percent. The outlook for the eurozone economy, however, remains intact at one-percent growth. "There is the risk that protectionism and trade policy uncertainty will increase even further and that additional trade barriers might be introduced," Pereira wrote. "According to our simulations, additional tariffs would further reduce global growth prospects and fuel inflation, dampening global growth even more," he said. alb-lth/gil

CAE sampling points to porphyry wealth

Don't miss out on the headlines from Stockhead. Followed categories will be added to My News. Surface sampling at Cannindah's Mt Cannindah project has revealed two untested porphyry targets Rock chips dazzle with peak results of up to 12.28% copper, 9.94g/t gold and 1.24% molybdenum Each potential 'pencil' porphyry, which requires deeper drill testing, could host between 100Mt and 200Mt of material Special Report: Cannindah Resources' surface rock chip sampling has identified two untested potential copper-molybdenum-gold porphyry centres at its Mt Cannindah project in Queensland. Sampling of porphyry-style veining and skarn mineralisation returned peak results of up to 12.28% copper, 9.94g/t gold and 1.24% molybdenum along with coincident elevated key geochemical pathfinders of tellerium, bismuth, tin and tungsten. Cannindah Resources' (ASX:CAE) notes that historical holes at the project are shallow and support the peripheral or upper level interpretation of 'pencil' porphyry systems similar to those at the Northparkes and Cadia Ridgeway deposits. It also suggests the economic window typical of porphyry systems remains untested. 'Whilst we have been completing our drilling this year, we have also been working on increasing the scale potential at Mt Cannindah in areas outside of the current 14.5Mt mineral resource area,' CAE managing director Tom Pickett said. 'Our updated understanding of the project area indicates the potential for more than one pencil porphyry target within our project. 'Our strategic objective is to work to develop a copper asset in the range of 100-200Mt in this uniquely advantageous infrastructure location. 'To do this we are applying extensional exploration methods including data science analysis, geochemistry, geophysics and mineral deposit modelling. 'With supporting data from recent drilling and sampling, strong IP results and historical halo drill holes ending in copper mineralisation, there is good support for the presence of pencil porphyries, and we have identified at least two significant targets that we are very excited to be following up with near-term drilling.' Recent drilling beyond the known mineralised zone returned high-grade results such as 71m at 0.95% copper equivalent. Project areas showing the new Eastern and Southern porphyry targets. Pic: Cannindah Resources Mt Cannindah Mt Cannindah is about 100km south of Gladstone and represents a large porphyry copper-molybdenum-gold mineralised system that outcrops from surface and is open along strike and at depth. It has a resource of 14.5Mt at 1.09% copper equivalent. Recent drilling of the Mt Cannindah breccia complex identified a strong genetic and spatial affiliation of copper-gold-silver mineralisation to a postulated buried intrusive centre on the basis of geochemistry, alteration, distribution of intrusives and mineralisation style. Vectors to this postulated buried porphyry centre suggests that the potential economic window is at a depth greater than the Eastern and Southern targets that have now been verified by surface rock chip sampling that followed up on anomalies generated by a review of historical soil, rock, shallow drill hole results, mapping and CAE induced polarisation data. Both targets have footprints indicating the potential for 100-200Mt of material. The Eastern target was identified following a review of halo drill hole geochemistry and geology which supported the anomalous copper results in the shallow drill holes spatially associated with a large area of skarn development on the major regional Kalpowar Fault and associated splays. It is coincident with a large and highly significant IP anomaly and is covered by recent alluvium and has not been adequately explored using modern exploration techniques. Meanwhile, the Southern target was defined by recent sampling and high order coincident historical >500ppm copper and >20ppm molybdenum soil results over a 1000m by 500m includes the Monument and Lifesaver prospects where appreciable amounts of distal skarn are developed that have previously been evaluated by relatively old shallow drilling returning results typical of halo or peripheral drill intersections. A large coincident IP anomaly is also evident. Both targets require deeper drill testing. Work being completed has also indicated a further additional two target zones at the Dunno/Appletree area and the Kalpowar Fault Zone, a major regional scale fault. Additional surface sampling focusing on the two additional zones is ongoing. This article was developed in collaboration with Cannindah Resources, a Stockhead advertiser at the time of publishing.
