Trump plan and the 50% tariffs in Brazil
rump plan is a fine balance between increasing revenues to pay the debt and inflation. There are two fronts it has been fighting achieve the results:
1) Other countries that wants to renegotiate
2) The Fed to cut interest rates
  • As it moved to the implementation phase, we can see all the fine tuning that the plan needs.
  • So far the tariffs hit industrial countries. This week Trump hit a commodities exporter. This is a new one. Brazil dominates certain commodities that impacts food prices which are already high. Let's see how this will work.
  • First margins are razor thin and exporters have no room to lower prices. Second there are not many alternative exporters that have not been tariffed already.
  • The U.S. is the world's largest importer of coffee, with about 80% of U.S. roasted imports coming from Latin America. More than 60% comes from just two countries — Brazil and Colombia, USDA says.
