Our team is working to model potential revenue from the new 301s. Bottom line - no one should be surprised. They said they were going to rebuild the tariff wall and they meant it. Revenue is needed, bond markets have made that clear.
🚨 Late last night, USTR released proposed tariff rates from its forced labor Section 301 investigation. To help unpack the announcement, we've gathered analysis and resources examining what these proposed rates could mean for businesses, consumers, trading partners, tariff revenue, and the future direction of US economic statecraft.
💡Following the Supreme Court’s ruling against the administration’s use of IEEPA tariffs, our experts also examined the key questions facing policymakers, businesses, and trading partners.

Macau joins Project mBridge 🚨
The Monetary Authority of Macau has completed system integration with China's cross-border CBDC platform. 11 local banks have joined, and Macau has reportedly completed its first transactions with Hong Kong and the UAE. 🧵
Macau announcing its membership and full system integration simultaneously reflects two points we have long made about mBridge: China is steadily advancing its effort to build an alternative to the Western financial system, and outsiders have little visibility into it.
🌎 NEW | Geoeconomics isn't new. The United States is rediscovering it.
In a new essay in the @IMFNews's Finance & Development Magazine, @joshualipsky argues that as trade wars, industrial policy, sanctions, and great-power competition reshape the global economy, the United States is being forced to relearn a lesson much of the world already understands: economics is foreign policy.

🚨 Another Section 301 investigation just dropped.
