Prediction: Whirlpool Will Soar Over the Next Few Years. Here's 1 Reason Why.
Key Points Investors need to be patient, but the tariffs will inevitably improve Whirlpool's competitive position in the US market. The tariffs on its Asian competitors are significant and, if maintained, could prove a game-changer for the company. 10 stocks we like better than Whirlpool › Some positive things are going Whirlpool's (NYSE: WHR) way of late. The home appliance maker looks set to be a net winner over the long term from the Trump administration's recent tariff actions. The company's decision last year to exit its European business (which combined with Arcelik to form Beko Europe) should magnify the tariff's benefits further by increasing the company's exposure to North America. Whirlpool's near-term headwinds That said, the company needs to overcome some near-term headwinds, and the irony is that they are caused by the self-same tariff actions that will help the company over the long term. As recently discussed, Whirlpool's immediate problem is that Asian competitors are preloading product into the market in anticipation of higher tariffs (as they did in the first quarter) or to take advantage of any tariff pauses (as they did in the second quarter). As a result, Whirlpool's markets are suffering intense promotional activity as its competitors sell their inventory into the market through 2025. According to Whirlpool CEO Marc Bitzer on a recent earnings call, "we expect that foreign competitors will begin to experience the full implications of tariffs and appliances as they sell down their preloaded inventory in the back half of 2025." Bitzer's comment speaks to a likely continuation of the near-term pressure that caused the company to cut its full-year guidance. Whirlpool's long-term growth prospects Still, it also refers to the substantive tariffs currently applied to Asian competitors. Whirlpool outlined some of them on its earnings presentation, with imports from China tariffed at 44% to 61%, Korea at 29%, Vietnam at 25%, Thailand at 39%, etc. While these rates may change, and its competitors can expand investment to produce more in the U.S., 80% of what Whirlpool sells in the U.S. is made in the U.S. Simply put, Whirlpool is best placed to benefit from the new tariff regime, and that should become clear enough as the full impact of tariffs kicks in. As such, Whirlpool stock has excellent upside prospects. Should you buy stock in Whirlpool right now?

Binance adds instant Mastercard withdrawals
Binance has rolled out a new feature for its European customers that allows them to convert cryptocurrency into fiat currency and transfer or withdraw the funds directly to an eligible Mastercard in near real time. It is intended to speed up and simplify off-ramping, the process of converting cryptocurrency into spendable cash. The new feature is accessible via Binance's "Buy & Sell" service on both its website and mobile app. It is driven by Mastercard Move, the payment giant's array of money transfer products. Users can either sell cryptocurrency and have the fiat balance transferred directly to their card or remove an existing fiat balance from their card. According to Binance, the functionality provides a quick, easy, and safe way to access funds, serving as an alternative to traditional bank transfers and other withdrawal methods. Thomas Gregory, Binance's Vice President of Fiat stated: "At Binance, we are proud of our focus on users which has garnered the trust of nearly 300 million users and continue to further the experience for them. The new Sell to Card and Withdraw to Card features streamline and enhance the user experience, making payouts of crypto proceeds simpler and faster than ever for our users." Gregory also added: "Our goal is to continue expanding our services with global leaders and innovators in digital payments, like Mastercard, to widen access and possibilities for our broad global user base. We are looking forward to supporting additional products and features and we remain committed to the highest standards of regulatory compliance along with our world-class security and user protection efforts." Scott Abrahams, executive vice president, Global Partnerships, Mastercard shared: "Mastercard is committed to unlocking the true potential of crypto assets for everyday use. Through our global partnership with Binance, we are thrilled to bring an enhanced payout experience to Binance users across Europe, enabled through Mastercard Move." With crypto adoption growing in Europe, Binance's latest move is likely to appeal to users seeking faster and easier ways to access their digital assets for real-world spending.

Trump Tariffs Are Making International Stock Markets Great Again
(Bloomberg) -- US President Donald Trump's tariffs are giving international stocks a serious lift and at the same time helping to end the S&P 500 Index's run of global dominance — at least for now. All Hail the Humble Speed Hump Three Deaths Reported as NYC Legionnaires' Outbreak Spreads Mayor Asked to Explain $1.4 Billion of Wasted Johannesburg Funds Major Istanbul Projects Are Stalling as City Leaders Sit in Jail What England's New National Cycling Network Needs to Get Rolling International stock markets are on pace to outperform the broad US equities benchmark this year, the first time they've done that since 2022, and the first time in a rising market since 2009. Fears that tariffs and trade uncertainty will have an outsized impact on Corporate America's earnings growth are the primary culprit. The MSCI World Index excluding the US is clobbering the S&P 500 in 2025, jumping 18% thus far versus a more modest 7.8% gain in the S&P 500. You can see why in the individual performances. Mexico's key stock market index is up 18% this year, Canada's is up 12%, Germany's 21%, Spain's 26%, Brazil's 14%, and the UK's 11%. It's a sharp reversal from years of soaring gains for US equities, spurred most recently by mega-cap technology companies and the promise of artificial intelligence, and relatively sluggish performances by their global peers. This has left stocks in markets outside of the US relatively cheap. 'Sometimes the biggest gains come from the fixer-upper opportunities,' Craig Basinger, chief strategist at Purpose Investments Inc, said in an interview. The valuation gap between US and international markets is 'historically wide,' and investors are largely over-invested in the US and under-invested in other markets, according to Basinger. That trend has been reversing this year, and it could accelerate as Trump's tariffs come into effect this month, while trading partners in Canada, Europe, Japan and elsewhere embark on investor-friendly reforms and boost domestic growth, he said. 'Rate of change matters in markets, and it would appear that international markets, generally speaking, are becoming a bit more investor friendly,' Basinger said. 'America is still the gold standard, but if the gap narrows, so could the valuation gap.' An 'ultra-low growth' earnings outlook that has been baked into European and Japanese stocks for years also is starting to change, according to David Lambert, managing director, senior portfolio manager and head of European equities at RBC Global Asset Management. 'We're actually in an era now where earnings growth could be incrementally higher for the medium term,' Lambert said. 'There's no reason why you can't see a gentle rerating in the coming years even further from where we are today.' He's not alone in that opinion. A June survey by BofA Securities found that 54% of the fund managers who responded expect international stocks to be the best-performing asset in the next five years. Just 23% held that view on US equities. The reason is Trump's tariffs, which are expected to hit Corporate America's earnings harder than companies in Europe or Japan, said David Groman, a director on Citi Research's global equity strategy team. Europe in particular is leading in value and momentum performance, according to a Citi note to clients on Wednesday. 'There is more clarity and investors have this ability to at least pencil in what they think the earnings impact will be in a place like Europe or Japan,' Groman said in an interview. Markets like Europe have already priced in a bad outcome on tariffs, and it may actually turn out to be better than expected, he added. To be sure, some strategists see pain in the US potentially spilling over into other markets around the world. Emily Roland and Matthew Miskin, co-chief investment strategists at Manulife John Hancock, caution against holding low-quality, cyclical international stocks in this kind of environment. 'Every other time in history if the US sees a recession, it has brought the rest of the world down with it,' they wrote in a recent note to clients. Still, the rotation from US stocks and into international equities could end up being 'a very long' story, Purpose's Basinger said. 'People just have too much US right now,' he said.
