The rise in steel and other metal stocks while is attributed to positive developments on the US China Tariff talks , India also has taken a firm stand on the Tariffs imposed by the US on metal imports from India
According to a PTI report, India has proposed to impose retaliatory taxes on the United States in response to President Donald Trump's steel and aluminum tariffs, and it has submitted this plan to the World Trade Organization (WTO).
The news reports suggest that the safeguards measures would have an impact on $7.6 billion worth of relevant product imports from India into the US, with $1.91 billion in duty revenue collected.
India as per news reports argues that the US's actions are in violation of the 1994 General Agreement on Trade and Tariffs (GATT) and the Agreement on Safeguards (AoS) and also that India reserves the right to suspend concessions or other obligations that are substantially equivalent to the adverse effects of the measure to India's trade
Meanwhile as India and the US are still to resolve the abovesaid issue on tariff, the positive developments in China -US trade talks is encouraging. China is the largest producer and consumer of commodities and thereby influences the international prices of commodities. Hence resolution and positive developments on US -China tariff discussions is a big positive for Steel and metal producers in India too

Samsung to adopt AI coding assistant to boost developer productivity
HighlightsSamsung Electronics plans to implement an artificial intelligence coding assistant service called Cline to improve productivity for its software development employees. The company has established a dedicated artificial intelligence productivity innovation group within its Device eXperience division to oversee the development of AI infrastructure and implementation of AI tools. Executive-level meetings are scheduled for June 17-19 to discuss business strategies and navigate global uncertainties, with a focus on the semiconductor business and supply chain vulnerabilities. Samsung Electronics said on Sunday it will adopt an artificial intelligence (AI) coding assistant service called Cline next month to enhance productivity among its software development employees. In a recent internal notice, the company said it has launched a beta test of Cline for employees in the Device eXperience (DX) division, which includes its mobile, TV and home appliances businesses, reports Yonhap news agency. Cline is an open-source AI tool that helps developers write, edit and test code using simple natural language commands like "create a login function." Unlike conventional coding assistants limited to basic tasks, Cline can handle more complex software development processes, significantly boosting productivity. Samsung plans to continue beta testing through the end of this month and aims to launch the official version as early as next month. As part of its transition into an AI-driven company , Samsung has also established a dedicated AI productivity innovation group within its DX division. The new group serves as a central control tower, overseeing the development of companywide AI infrastructure and systems while supporting the implementation of AI tools across business divisions. Meanwhile, Samsung will hold executive-level meetings later this month to discuss business strategies for the second half of the year. The global strategy meetings for the company's electronics division are scheduled for June 17-19, according to the sources. Samsung holds these meetings twice a year, in June and December, led by the heads of each business division. They review regional and business-specific issues, as well as discuss next year's goals and sales strategies . This year's agenda is expected to include strategies for navigating rising global uncertainties, including the shifting trade policies of U.S. President Donald Trump's second administration. Participants will also assess supply chain vulnerabilities and consider region-specific responses, the sources said. Roh Tae-moon, acting head of the Device eXperience (DX) division, and Jun Young-hyun, head of the Device Solutions (DS) division, will preside over the meetings. As in previous years, Executive Chairman Lee Jae-yong is not expected to attend the meetings, they said. The DS division, which oversees Samsung's semiconductor business, is expected to hold in-depth discussions on sales strategies and ways to boost long-term competitiveness.

TSX falls as tech shares weigh; eyes on US-China trade talks
June 9 - Canada's main stock index fell on Monday, dragged by technology shares, as investors cautiously monitored a fresh round of U.S.-China trade talks aimed at easing tensions between the world's largest economies. The S&P/TSX composite index was down 0.3% at 26,346.82 points, coming off its record high close on Friday. All eyes are on the high-stakes talks in London, where top U.S. and Chinese officials are meeting to defuse tensions that recently expanded beyond tariffs to export controls over goods and components critical to global supply chains. "I would say there is an undercurrent of caution," said Brian Madden, chief investment officer and portfolio manager at First Avenue Investment Counsel. "There's lots of sort of arm waving about trade phone calls, but trade deals take a long time to negotiate, so I don't think anyone is expecting a miracle here in the short term between the U.S. and China". The discussions follow a rare call last week between U.S. President Donald Trump and his Chinese counterpart, Xi Jinping. Meanwhile, Prime Minister Mark Carney on Monday Canada's Liberal government will pour extra billions into its armed forces and hit NATO's 2% military spending target this fiscal year, five years earlier than promised. Jet maker Bombardier and aviation simulation and training company CAE gained 2.7% and 0.8%, respectively. The broader industrial sector, however, fell 0.5%. Information and technology shares were leading the losses on the TSX, with enterprise software solutions provider Enghouse Systems falling 2.4% as brokerage CIBC cut the price target on the stock. Heavyweight materials sector was trading in green with 0.2% gains as gold and silver prices rose in the day. Among other stocks, uranium supplier Cameco jumped 9.6% to the top of the benchmark index after a number of analysts raised the stock's price target.
