Episode notes
Impact of EU-US Trade Deal
- The EU-US trade deal with 15% tariffs brings clarity but will drag global growth potentially by about one percentage point.
- Markets may be desensitized to trade deal announcements, diminishing their immediate impact on prices.
Trade Negotiations Strategy
- The trade negotiations start with extreme demands, knowing the final deal will be less severe, creating a negotiation pattern.
- The delay of a deal with China could be strategic, as the first tariffs were imposed in 2018 but phase one deal not until 2020.
Nvidia's Strategic Compromise
- Nvidia balanced national security concerns and profit by allowing scaled-down GPUs to China.
- This compromise allows China to innovate independently while limiting immediate AI supremacy loss.
