Relative Return Unplugged: The ripple effects of Trump’s tariff tactics
In this episode of Relative Return Unplugged, hosts Maja Garaca Djurdjevic and Keith Ford are joined by AMP’s chief economist, Shane Oliver, to discuss the ever-evolving state of global markets as the US pursues its protectionist trade war.
The fast-moving rollout of tariffs against major trade partners has had a profound impact on stock markets around the world, with tensions and reciprocal tariffs threatening to inflame a trade war that could have prolonged effects.
Listen as they discuss:
- How global markets are responding to the increasing volatility of a Trump presidency.
- Whether the President’s tactics will change if the downturns become more pronounced.
- Why Australia not hitting back with tariffs of its own is the right path.
