President Trump, "15~20% Tariffs on Most Countries"… Sent Letter to Canada Imposing 35% Tariff

산업 일반

U.S. President Donald Trump announced plans to impose tariffs of 15% or 20% on most of America’s trading partners. He announced that starting August 1, there will be a 35% tariff on every product that originates from Canada.President Trump told NBC in a phone interview that “Every other country will pay 15% or 20%. And we’re deciding on the rate right now.”President Trump recently sent letters to major countries, including South Korea and Japan, detailing the tariff rates. His mention of "the rest of the countries" implicitly points to those nations that did not receive a tariff. The Trump administration delayed the implementation of reciprocal tariffs for 90 days on April 9. However, it still applied the standard tariff of 10% uniformly to all trading partners. The ‘15% or 20%’ mentioned by President Trump is slightly higher than the standard rate.He stated, “Not everyone needs to receive a letter.” He added, “We’re simply setting our own tariffs.”President Trump also said in the interview that Canada and the European Union (EU) would get official notices of the new tariff rates “today or tomorrow.” Shortly after, he shared the tariff sent to Canada on Truth Social.In the letter to Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney, he announced that starting from August 1, all products exported from Canada to the United States would face a 35% tariff.He wrote, “Instead of cooperating with the United States, Canada retaliated with its tariffs.” He added, “Beginning from August 1, 2025, all Canadian products exported to the United States will face a 35% tariff, in addition to any item-specific duties.” Previously, the Trump administration had imposed a 25% tariff on Canada and Mexico due to their failure to address the trafficking of synthetic opioid fentanyl and the influx of illegal immigrants. However, exemptions have remained for goods that meet the United States-Mexico-Canada Agreement (USMCA). A formal notice to the EU is also likely to come soon. In the interview, President Trump said, “We’re talking with the EU, many countries, and Canada. We’ll make an announcement in the next few hours.” On the 7th, President Trump sent letters outlining reciprocal tariff rates ranging from 25% to 40% to 14 countries, including South Korea (25%) and Japan. Two days later, on the 9th, additional letters went to seven more countries, including the Philippines and Brazil. All reciprocal tariffs are set to take effect on August 1.President Trump dismissed concerns that the extra tariffs might harm the stock market or cause inflation. “I believe the tariff measures have been very well received,” he said. He added, “The stock market hit a record high today.”▶원문 기사: 트럼프, "대부분 국가에 15~20% 관세 부과"…캐나다엔 35% 관세 서한 발송 (이코노미스트, 2025. 7.11) ◆이코노미스트가 글로벌 차세대 경제 리더, 청소년 기자단 영 저널리스트와 함께합니다. 영 저널리스트 기자단은 프리미엄 경제지 이코노미스트, 논술 전문 기관 Ni 에듀케이션과 함께 주요 시사 이슈를 팔로우업하고 직접 기획, 취재, 기사 작성 활동을 하며 사회적 문제를 고심하고 해결 방안을 제시하는 과정을 경험하게 됩니다. 이번 기사는 영 저널리스트 기자단이 이코노미스트 기사를 영문으로 번역하며 이슈를 팔로우업한 기사입니다. 차세대 글로벌 경제 리더, <영 저널리스트 with 이코노미스트> 영문 기사는 매주 연재됩니다.

Nike shares surge over 10% in after-hours trading despite weak earnings… “We’ll reduce our exposure to Chinese-made products”

산업 일반

Despite weak earnings, shares of Nike rose more than 11% in after-hours trading.This was because it presented a strategy to improve future performance. Nike announced that revenue for the March–May fiscal fourth quarter was $11.1 billion. This figure exceeded market expectations but was the lowest since the third quarter of fiscal year 2022. Net profit plummeted 86% year-on-year to $211 million, its lowest since the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2020. Nevertheless, CEO Elliott Hill expressed optimism during the earnings call, saying, “We expect business performance to improve from here. It’s time to turn the page.” Hill returned as Nike CEO last October and has since strengthened ties with retailers, prioritized running shoes and athletic wear, and implemented strategic price hikes. The launch of new models such as Pegasus and Vomero helped drive a recovery in the running shoe category. If the Trump administration, which is likely to return to power, enforces a comprehensive import tariff policy, Nike could face additional annual costs of up to $1 billion. Currently, about 16% of footwear imported into the United States is made in China, making it especially vulnerable to tariff hikes. Nike plans to reduce the proportion of Chinese-made shoes from the current approximately 16% to single digits by the end of fiscal year 2026. It is also planning to raise product prices.▶원문 기사: 나이키, 저조한 실적 불구 시간외 급등…“중국산 비중 줄일 것” (이코노미스트, 2025. 6.27) ◆이코노미스트가 글로벌 차세대 경제 리더, 청소년 기자단 영 저널리스트와 함께합니다. 영 저널리스트 기자단은 프리미엄 경제지 이코노미스트, 논술 전문 기관 Ni 에듀케이션과 함께 주요 시사 이슈를 팔로우업하고 직접 기획, 취재, 기사 작성 활동을 하며 사회적 문제를 고심하고 해결 방안을 제시하는 과정을 경험하게 됩니다. 이번 기사는 영 저널리스트 기자단이 이코노미스트 기사를 영문으로 번역하며 이슈를 팔로우업한 기사입니다. 차세대 글로벌 경제 리더, <영 저널리스트 with 이코노미스트> 영문 기사는 매주 연재됩니다.

KRW/USD exchange rate rises due to favorable U.S. employment data… Tops 1363 won early in the trading session

산업 일반

On July 4, in the Seoul foreign exchange market, the KRW/USD exchange rate showed an upward trend early in the trading session, boosted by strong U.S. employment data for June. The increase in U.S. non-farm payrolls significantly exceeded market expectations, which is seen to have stimulated dollar strength. Meanwhile, the KRW/JPY cross-rate showed a slight downward trend. As of 9:01 a.m. in the Seoul foreign exchange market, the Korean won was trading at 1,363.1 won per U.S. dollar, up 3.7 won from the previous day’s closing price at 3:30 P.M. The exchange rate opened at 1,362.0 won, up 2.6 won from the previous day. Overnight, the U.S. Department of Labor announced that non-farm payrolls rose by 147,000 in June from the previous month.This significantly exceeds the 110,000 increase projected by market analysts in advance, indicating that the labor market remains resilient. Despite the Trump administration’s trade and tariff policies, the continued job creation in the U.S. economy is seen as having somewhat eased concerns over an economic slowdown. As a result, the U.S. dollar index, which reflects the value of the dollar against the currencies of six major countries, rebounded above the 97 level. At the same time, the KRW/JPY cross-rate stood at 942.20 won per 100 yen, down 2.52 won from the previous day's 3:30 p.m. close of 944.72 won.

‘The God of Investment’ Buffett Reveals Reason for Retirement… “It was Irreversible”

산업 일반

Warren Buffett, the chairman and CEO of Berkshire Hathaway, who is known as a legendary American investor, has admitted that he began to feel his age after entering his nineties while stepping down from management.Warren Buffet, the 94-year-old chairman, announced his retirement at Berkshire Hathaway’s annual shareholders’ meeting three days ago. Although he has led Berkshire for 60 years, he will step down and hand over the CEO position to Greg Abel on January 1st next year. In a phone interview published by The Wall Street Journal on May 14 (U.S. local time), Warren Buffett said, “For some strange reason, I didn’t seem to age until I turned 90. But once you start aging, there’s really no going back."“How would I even know the day I start getting old?” Buffet asked rhetorically. However, he acknowledged that as time passed, he began to experience things like gradually losing his balance, struggling to recall people’s names, and finding that the words in the newspaper appear blurry. He also mentioned that his successor, Greg Abel, vice chairman of Berkshire’s non-insurance operations, now works at a faster pace than he does. Buffett said that there was a noticeable difference in energy levels between himself and Vice Chairman Abel, saying, “When I compare the amount of work he gets done in 10 hours to what I can accomplish in the same time, the gap has become more and more dramatic.”He also said, “Abel was far more efficient in every aspect — getting things done, driving change when needed in management, and supporting those who needed help.”Warren Buffett said he will continue working over the next eight months until his retirement just as he always did, and even after retiring, he will keep going to the office of Omaha, Nebraska.Additionally, he will still remain as chairman of the Berkshire Hathaway board.▶원문 기사:'투자의 신' 버핏이 밝힌 은퇴 이유…"되돌릴 수 없더라고" (이코노미스트 2025.5.16) ◆이코노미스트가 글로벌 차세대 경제 리더, 청소년 기자단 영 저널리스트와 함께합니다. 영 저널리스트 기자단은 프리미엄 경제지 이코노미스트, 논술 전문 기관 Ni 에듀케이션과 함께 주요 시사 이슈를 팔로우업하고 직접 기획, 취재, 기사 작성 활동을 하며 사회적 문제를 고심하고 해결 방안을 제시하는 과정을 경험하게 됩니다. 이번 기사는 영 저널리스트 기자단이 이코노미스트 기사를 영문으로 번역하며 이슈를 팔로우업한 기사입니다. 차세대 글로벌 경제 리더, <영 저널리스트 with 이코노미스트> 영문 기사는 매주 연재됩니다.
