New levies mark President Trump’s biggest push to remake global trade, and the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) is reshaping government spending with unclear economic consequences.4) Jean Boivin, Head of the BlackRock Investment Institute, talks about how his group is navigating market and geopolitical uncertainties amid a market selloff. It comes with the US yield curve steepening as President Trump's tariff threats came to fruition.5) Lisa Mateo breaks down the latest headlines in newspapers across the US, including what could get more expensive under Trump tariffs, vendors advertising tariff-free products, and Chipotle announcing it'll foot the bill on tariff hikes.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
