Europe Should Focus on Gas in Trump Tariff Negotiations, says former Italian PM Renzi
“Trump could try to exchange a reduction in tariffs with an agreement of gas, and maybe also in defense,” says former Italian Prime Minister Matteo Renzi.

US stock futures bounce back after selloff with Japan trade talks in focus
U.S. President Donald Trump said the country had made “big progress” in talks with Japan, one of the first rounds of face-to-face negotiations since his sweeping imposition of duties on global imports roiled markets and stoked recession fears. Upbeat results from Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Co (TSMC) also contributed to some recovery for U.S. chip stocks, which had tumbled in the prior session after Nvidia flagged steep costs from new curbs on its AI chip exports to China. TSMC’s U.S.-listed shares jumped 3.6% in premarket trading, while Nvidia rose 1.3% after falling nearly 7% on Wednesday.https://ca.finance.yahoo.com/news/us-stock-futures-bounce-back-100015027.html?.tsrc=rss

The company will increase prices in the US as of May 1 to compensate for the impact of new tariffs. Meanwhile, Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Co.’s net income and gross margin beat estimates. The world’s biggest chipmaker also kept its growth outlook for 2025 on expectations of AI revenue doubling, despite growing trade worries.

Too Late should have lowered Interest Rates, like the ECB, long ago, but he should certainly lower them now. Powell’s termination cannot come fast enough!
