Europe goes emerging market. EU-Japan trade deal.

The core of the agreement aims to increase the flow of Japanese cars to Europe and of European food to Japan

(European) Exporters of meat and dairy as well as wines and other specialty foods, currently all highly protected in Japan, will see the biggest windfall, EU farm lobby Copa-Cogeca said in a statement

Europe will phase out tariffs on Japanese cars.

This will bring down the price of Japanese cars as tariffs are phased out and bring down the prices of the food for the Japanese consumer.

Europe will more high tech product and export food like Brazil does

The deal is a also a theater.
Sign as the G20 meeting is gathering attention
While BREXIT looms on the background


EU needed Japan as it lost the Russian market.
On the other hand, the pan-European farmers’ association Copa-Cogeca, claims that after the Russian ban. EU farmers and agricultural cooperatives lost their main export market overnight worth €5.5 billion.

On top of that BREXIT means EU has to cut agriculture subsidies
In an interview, the Dutch Labor politician said it was inevitable that the €58-billion-per-year Common Agricultural Policy would be slashed because of a shortfall of British budget contributions.

The EU-Japan deal is to help EU agribusiness as it lost Russian market due to the EU sanctions over Ukraine when it embargoed food exports.
As a result, trade between Russia and the EU dropped by over $180 billion between 2013 and last year. Together with slowing Chinese demand, Russia’s embargo has put enormous pressure on an already struggling EU agricultural markets.

It helps the EU as it will be forced to cut agriculture subsidies as they lose the UK contributions.

Down another 2 1/2% this week, the dollar index has weakened to a level not seen since early January 2015.


The market reacted to the new administration with the cry of reflation.


Reflation on the back of tax cuts.


De-regulation


Billions of dollars in infrastructure investments.


None happened.


Market back to the old normal.
