US-China renewed dialogue seen lifting Malaysia's trade outlook
KUALA LUMPUR: Renewed trade talks between the United States and China are expected to boost investor confidence and strengthen Malaysia's trade momentum, an economist said. Putra Business School economist Professor Dr Ahmed Razman Abdul Latiff said any move to reduce tariffs between the two economic giants could steady the sails for Malaysia by boosting confidence and trade visibility. "If the US and China agree to resume talks and reach a deal to reduce tariffs on each other, Malaysia's trade environment and investor sentiment will become less volatile and uncertain," he told Business Times. "This would boost investor confidence and encourage continued investment in Malaysia," Razman added, noting that while tensions persist, Malaysia is taking steps to shield its economy. Razman also expects Malaysia's export markets and supply chains to remain competitive, although growth may moderate slightly. This, he said, is supported by ongoing efforts to diversify export destinations, grow the country's trading partnerships and enhance intra-Asean trade. Should US-China negotiations break down again, he said the impact on Malaysia would likely remain limited. "There will be some negative impact but it will be minimum as majority of Malaysia's products such as semiconductor will not be subjected to higher tariffs by the US," he said. Trump and Xi held a 90-minute phone conversation on Thursday, marking their first direct dialogue since Trump resumed office. The call, widely viewed as a positive step towards easing the prolonged trade tensions between the world's two largest economies, laid the groundwork for renewed bilateral cooperation and the resumption of high-level trade negotiations. Both leaders agreed to restart trade talks, with senior US officials, including Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent and Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick, expected to meet their Chinese counterparts. The timing and venue for these negotiations have yet to be finalised but are anticipated to be announced in the coming weeks. Although the call sparked market optimism, US stocks closed lower as a sharp decline in Tesla shares outweighed the positive momentum from progress in US-China tariff negotiations. Tesla shares plunged over 14 per cent in heavy trading as the escalating public feud between Trump and businessman Elon Musk rattled investors, wiping out about US$150 billion in market value. Razman downplayed concerns over the spat saying, "The impact on Malaysia will be minimal, as the fallout primarily affects the SpaceX program and Tesla production."

Local Yields May Trade Lower On US Optimism
Yields on Malaysian government bonds closed mixed this week, with cautious optimism around global trade and soft US economic data helping to anchor the local fixed-income market. According to Kenanga Research, yields on Malaysian Government Securities (MGS) and Government Investment Issues (GII) moved within a narrow range of -4.2 to +0.9 basis points (bps) across the curve. The benchmark 10-year MGS yield eased 1.6 bps to 3.518% The 10-year GII dipped 0.2 bps to 3.532% Global and Domestic Drivers The slight decline in long-term yields closely followed movements in US Treasuries, which reacted to positive signals in US-China trade negotiations. The improved trade outlook, combined with softer US economic data, has reinforced expectations of an earlier rate cut by the US Federal Reserve. On the domestic front, a modest improvement in Malaysia's Purchasing Managers' Index (PMI) and continued export growth to African markets have supported confidence in local bonds, contributing to the relatively stable yield environment. Outlook: Stable Yields with Eyes on US Inflation Kenanga expects local bond yields to remain stable in the near term, with upcoming economic data — including industrial production, retail sales, and labour market statistics — likely to guide investor sentiment. However, the research house cautioned that any upside surprise in US inflation data could prompt global bond yields to rise, potentially spilling over into the Malaysian market. Additionally, renewed uncertainty in US tariff policy could reintroduce volatility. 'Investors should stay alert to both domestic data and global developments, especially updates on tariff talks,' Kenanga stated. Related

Trump announces new US-China trade talks in London amid tariff tensions
WASHINGTON, June 7 — US President Donald Trump announced yesterday a new round of trade talks with China in London next week, a day after calling Chinese counterpart Xi Jinping in a bid to end a bitter battle over tariffs. The talks in the British capital on Monday will mark the second round of such negotiations between the world's two biggest economies since Trump launched his trade war this year. "The meeting should go very well," said Trump in a post on his Truth Social platform. The president added that US Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent, Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick and US Trade Representative Jamieson Greer would meet the Chinese team. The first talks between Washington and Beijing since Trump slapped levies on allies and adversaries alike took place in Geneva last month. While Trump had imposed a sweeping 10 percent duty on imports from most trading partners, rates on Chinese goods rocketed as both countries engaged in an escalating tariffs battle. In April, additional US tariffs on many Chinese products hit 145 percent while China hit back with countermeasures of 125 percent. Following the talks last month, both sides agreed to temporarily bring down the levels, with US tariffs cooling to 30 percent and China's levies at 10 percent. But this temporary halt is expected to expire in early August and Trump last week accused China of violating the pact, underscoring deeper differences on both sides. US officials have accused China of slow-walking export approvals of critical minerals and rare earth magnets, a key issue behind Trump's recent remarks. While Trump's long-awaited phone call with Xi this week likely paved the way for further high-level trade talks, a swift resolution to the tariffs impasse remains uncertain. — AFP
