The United States and European Union announced a trade deal this weekend. The framework sees the US applying a 15% tariff on most EU goods, including cars and pharmaceuticals, and a mutual reduction to 0% tariffs on others, including aircraft and semiconductor equipment. Steel and aluminum will remain tariffed at 50%. Tariffs on some goods—including wine—are still under negotiation.
The announcement ends months of uncertainty for two of the world’s largest economies, responsible for nearly one-third of global trade. As part of the deal, the EU has committed to spending an additional $600B in the US, including on military equipment, and $750B on liquid gas and nuclear energy. The EU intends to phase out Russian gas imports by 2028.

Just a quick update on some tariffs that happened recently.
• President Trump announced a trade agreement with Japan overnight for a 15% tariff rate, including the important auto sector, down from the recently announced 25%. The agreement has sparked optimism that Europe can achieve the same rate, which would reduce the risk of a negative tariff surprise from two of our biggest trading partners.
• China’s rate will probably stay around 40% and Canada and Mexico are covered under the USMCA keeping tariffs on most imports below 10%. For stocks, the important thing is that a 15% overall rate, which markets seem able to handle, is back in play. Sectoral tariffs (semiconductors and pharmaceuticals) may push this overall rate up a point but will take more time to play out.

Some key points of information that came in this week.
• Inflation came in below expectations for the 4th consecutive month now.
• Consumer prices in May rose 0.1% month over month, after rising 0.2% in April. Annual inflation according to this metric is 2.4% and core inflation is 2.8%, still higher than the Federal Reserve’s 2% target.
• Surprisingly, new and used vehicle prices declined in May, despite many expecting an increase in prices from tariffs.
• Core services ex housing was unchanged in May, keeping the annual rate of inflation hovering around 3%.
• Bottom Line: Prices for apparel and autos, both highly sensitive to trade conditions, declined in May. Apparel prices also declined in April, indicating that these companies likely absorbed tariff costs. But don’t expect that to continue, as inflation will likely reaccelerate later this year.
