“We need to figure out here now, within a matter of days, whether this is doable in the short term, because if it's not, then I think we're just going to move on. If it's not possible, if we're so far apart that this is not going to happen, then I think the president is probably at a point where he's going to say, 'well, we're done'.”

“What is the Trump administration's grand strategy for China? They don't have a grand strategy yet. They have a range of disconnected tactics. I remain hopeful that Mr. Trump could reach deals with Japan, South Korea, India, Taiwan and the European Union that would allow them to confront Chinese trade practices together, attract allied investment in U.S. industry and increase security ties. If you are up against someone big, you need to get bigger scale - and that's why we need our allies to be with us.”

“I think it's [rising Treasury yields] a pretty serious indicator of concern. It's not necessarily the case that investors expect the US government to be unable to repay its debts in the near term, but investors are facing a lot of uncertainty with regards to the direction of the US economy. There is still a lot of uncertainty, and the market situation is quite fragile. What will happen at the end of the 90-day pause? How will the trade war with China evolve? For bonds specifically, China is the second-largest foreign holder of US government debt, so one potential escalation could see China strategically unloading some of those positions.”

Mr. Trump is planning to visit Qatar, Saudi Arabia and the United Arab Emirates as soon as next month. What he is hearing from all Arab leaders he's talking to is that they do not want more war.”

Apple, the maker of the iPhone that does a lot of business with China, their stocks continue to be lower. US auto manufacturers are also seeing declines in their shares. Broadly speaking, the market is now about 19 percent lower than its record highs. Analysts are comparing it with the beginning of the pandemic when the market had its last serious rout.”

“The inflationary impact of Trump's tariffs will be felt sooner rather than later, even as some of his team are scrambling to claim there will be negotiations on lowering some of the tariffs. This is because importers and distributors will have to reassess the profitability of the goods they are ordering now. Supply chains may well be further disrupted by countermeasures from the countries affected.”

“China is likely going to release some type of retaliation against the US … while Japan has said it will also consider some type of retaliatory duties, we expect US agriculture to be mainly in the crosshairs there. That said, a lot of other Asian markets aren't really in a position to retaliate. Places like Vietnam, Malaysia, the Philippines, they have been hit with higher tariffs, but the size of their economy, their dependence on external trade, and the importance of the US as a source of final demand will really constrain their ability to adopt a hawkish attitude here.”

“For decades, our country has been looted, pillaged, raped and plundered by nations near and far, both friend and foe alike. Foreign leaders have stolen our jobs. Foreign cheaters have ransacked our factories. And foreign scavengers have torn apart our once-beautiful American dream. April 2, 2025, will forever be remembered as the day American industry was reborn, the day America's destiny was reclaimed. We will charge them approximately half of what they are - and have - been charging us. So, the tariffs will be not a full reciprocal. I could have done that, I guess, but it would've been tough for a lot of countries. We didn't want to do that.”

“Let's be honest, this base, the surrounding area, is less secure than it was 30, 40, years ago, because some of our allies haven't kept up as China and Russia have taken greater and greater interest in Greenland, in this base, in the activities of the brave Americans right here. Denmark has not kept pace with military spending, and Denmark has not kept pace in devoting the resources necessary to keep this base, to keep our troops, and in my view, to keep the people of Greenland safe from a lot of very aggressive incursions from Russia, from China and from other nations. Our message to Denmark is very simple, you have not done a good job by the people of Greenland. You have underinvested in the people of Greenland and you have underinvested in the security architecture of this incredible, beautiful land mass, filled with incredible people.”

“What has become increasingly clear is that Trump's team sees Europe as a parasitic freeloading ally and its liberal democracies as political and ideological adversaries. But this is so contradictory to everything the United States has stood for that we are bound to ask: Can America really tilt this way? Just as Mr. Trump appears determined to weaken checks and balances at home, he is seeking to replicate that externally, dispensing with any rules-based or values-based order. Anything that is a check on whatever he wants to do on whatever day, including Article 5, is something he may tear up. What counts in Trump world are power and interests. For Europe the choice may come down to this: Show teeth or give him what he wants.”

“The belief that prices could be passed on and would be unconditionally accepted by consumers is naive. Car prices in the USA will rise. Only cars manufactured in the USA can be kept somewhat stable, but the entire supply chain will be affected by the tariff disruption. Ultimately, this will lead to declining volumes of new cars, inefficiencies in factory utilisation, and significantly lower margins, free cash flows and ultimately earnings.”

“Everybody will lose. The Americans will lose; Trump will lose, but especially the German car industry [will lose]. Any gains for US manufacturing - as Trump foresees companies rushing to build cars in the country - will not be immediate because it takes time to build production facilities. Instead, a trade war will raise prices for American consumers and incur losses on the US economy. Trump is looking to cause damage to foreign industries. We should really think of retaliation. There is no solution with Trump on the bargaining table.”
