GEOPOLITICS: TRADE PROGRESS

  • US TARIFF DEADLINE EXTENDED TO AUGUST 1 FROM THE PREVIOUS JULY 9. The US is still expected to announce more deals after clinching deals with the UK, Vietnam and Indonesia. Next on the list could be Japan, the E.U., India, Canada, Mexico, and South Korea, where announcements are expected to be made by August 1.
  • BREAKING (JULY 15): U.S. AND INDONESIA REACHED A TRADE DEAL. President Donald Trump said the United States has struck a trade deal with Indonesia. The agreement includes a 19% U.S. tariff on Indonesian goods.
  • BREAKING (JULY 2): U.S. AND VIETNAM REACHED A TRADE DEAL. President Donald Trump said the United States has struck a trade deal with Vietnam. The agreement includes a 20% U.S. tariff on Vietnamese goods.
  • BREAKING (MAY 8): U.S. AND U.K. ANNOUNCED A TRADE DEAL ON MAY 8. President Trump said this is the first of many to follow.

GEOPOLITICS: TENSIONS RISE BETWEEN THE USA AND RUSSIA

  • BREAKING (JULY 14): US PRESIDENT DONALD TRUMP THREATENED 100% TARIFFS ON RUSSIAN GOODS AND HIGH SECONDARY TARIFFS FOR COUNTRIES THAT BUY RUSSIAN OIL IF NO CEASEFIRE DEAL WITH UKRAINE IS REACHED WITHIN NEXT 50 DAYS. According to Reuters, Trump gave the Russian president a new deadline of 50 days to make peace or face 100% tariffs on Russian goods, and more importantly, sweeping secondary tariffs, implying that trade sanctions would be imposed on countries that continue importing Russian oil and other commodities. This could negatively impact the oil exports from Russia, one of the largest oil exporters in the world. Oil prices, on the other hand, could be expected to see some positive pressure if supply from Russia falls.

CHINA: RECENT POSITIVE ECONOMIC DATA COULD IMPROVE THE OIL DEMAND OUTLOOK

  • BREAKING (JULY 15): CHINA REPORTED HIGHER THAN EXPECTED Q2 GDP DATA (5.2%. VS. 5.1% EXPECTED). China is the second largest oil consumer in the world after USA, and the largest oil importer in the world. As the economic activity in China improves, the demand outlook for oil could also be expected to improve.
  • BREAKING (JULY 15): CHINA REPORTED HIGHER THAN EXPECTED INDUSTRIAL PRODUCTION DATA (JUNE) (6.8%. VS. 5.6% EXPECTED). China is the second largest oil consumer in the world after USA, and the largest oil importer in the world. As the economic activity in China improves, the demand outlook for oil could also be expected to improve.
