2025, day XXX
Good morning from the U.K.
In geopolitics, Japan’s PM and LDP reel from an election defeat just as tariffs need to be negotiated;
As a Gaza ceasefire stalls again, and Israeli politics is in flux, some of Trump’s team allegedly call the Israeli PM a “madman” who just “keeps bombing things all the time”; while
Iran announced nuclear talks with European powers in Istanbul on Friday;
In geoeconomics, ‘U.S. still looking at XX% baseline tariff, not higher, Lutnick says’ (Axios); as
The EU is preparing for a worst-case trade war most agree it can’t win; while
‘Warsaw gloats, Berlin balks as EU budget fight turns national’ (Politico);
In markets, ‘Extreme weather drives food price surges across the globe’ (FT); and
“Trump dismissed as “untruthful” a WSJ report claiming Scott Bessent recently laid out why he shouldn’t fire Jerome Powell.” (Bloomberg);
Bloomberg also argues cutting current public holidays is too lazy a policy and we should all be boosting productivity and pay instead. They just don’t say how, and why we haven’t been able to do it so far.
Until day 222, expect shorter summaries of 2025’s gifts to us all…. But feel free to add your own below!
