Trump EU Trade Deal | BREAKING
FULL TRANSCRIPT
Major news coming in just now. US and
European Union close in on a 15% tariff
deal per the Financial Times. It is so
early this news. It's not even on the
Financial Times yet. I'm sure it will be
soon, but the uh data that we're getting
from the news wires is that we're
closing in on a 15% tariff deal.
Brussels will agree to the reciprocal
tariff levies to avoid the president's
threat to raise the tariffs to 30% on
August 1st. We're a week away from
August 1st. EU is the the biggest
trading partner with the United States.
Like this is this is huge. This is a
really big deal and I think that's why
you know markets a little optimistic
right now in response to this. You know
the Q's jumped up about 20 basis points
which is really quite bullish. uh and uh
shows you though unfortunately as we
called on the alpha report this morning
rocket's probably going to go down to
1598 and it's still stuck there. Make
sure you get your alpha report if you
have not yet. Uh use coupon code release
the files. Uh and of course open door
continues to sell down which we also
called uh in the alpha report. So make
sure you get those. Those are very very
clear setups for trading I think. But
anyway, other news here is EU and US
would wave tariffs on some products
including aircraft, spirits, and medical
devices.
So, uh, basically Airbus planes and
Boeing planes waved. The Trump
administration seems really gung-ho on
promoting Boeing. You, if you haven't
noticed yet, in multiple deals that
we've done, there has been an agreement
by the companies uh to buy Boeing
planes. Uh so there's obviously this
promotion again like Japan for example
is going to buy a 100 Boeing plans and
$8 billion in crops. Multiple others
like Indonesia says they're going to buy
50 Boeing jets under a trade deal. So
Trump is really taking American
companies and taking them to these
countries and saying well buy some
Caterpillar equipment, buy some Boeing
planes. Uh and so this is part of that.
The European Union will continue to
prepare a possible set of retalatory
tariffs in case they cannot agree to a
deal by August 1st. And that would be on
a package as large as 93 billion euros.
That's higher than expected. They had
previously written that down to about 7
uh2 billion. And so it looks like
they're trying to push it back up. This
is probably just in the spirit of uh the
um uh you know what's it called? Um
European Union trying to negotiate back.
Uh I do think it's very interesting that
we are
seeing this happen before August 1st
because it's really great news. We don't
know what all of the details are yet. We
don't know that it's definitely going to
happen, but this is breaking news that
we could have this deal with Europe.
This comes after the deal with Japan,
which is our fifth largest trading
partner. Finally, we're getting these
trade deals coming through, which is
great. Again, I I worry a little bit.
Watch my video this morning on Japan
where we talked about the risk factor of
this sort of central planning that we're
doing with the Japan deal. But a deal
with the European Union, absolutely
fantastic. So, I'm a big fan of this.
Uh, and it's it's a boon, frankly, to
American companies like Boeing. Again,
the other issue though that we have is
these tariffs are a lot higher than what
we've previously had. That's not to
argue that we've had free trade before.
We didn't, but our average weighted
tariffs with the European Union were
closer to, I want to say 1.8%, let me
see, trade weighted. I have this saved
and so we'll find it. But anyway, uh
closer to we'll call it plus or minus 2%
until I find the data. Uh now we're
going to be jumping to about 15% with
the European Union. So that has to get
paid somewhere. We don't yet know what
the implications of that are going to
be. Uh but um this is good and it's a
real big positive uh overall for the
stock market. I personally thought that
the market should have jumped more on
talk about this Japanese trade deal
because it sort of did set a foundation
for what's going on with negotiations
elsewhere. But I was surprised that it
didn't potentially because we're just
relatively topheavy on markets now or
we're just waiting for tech earnings and
we're really just beyond terrorists. But
uh this right now it says it's a
Financial Times reporting that we are
close to a deal. It's not technically a
deal yet, but pretty exciting.
>> Why not advertise these things that you
told us here? I feel like nobody else
knows about this.
>> We'll we'll try a little advertising and
see how it goes.
>> Congratulations, man. You have done so
much. People love you. People look up to
you.
>> Kevin Pra there, financial analyst and
YouTuber. Meet Kevin. Always great to
get your take.
