Investors’ focus this week is likely to remain on tariff news from the US. The 90-day pause on President Trump’s Liberation Day tariffs is set to expire on 9 Jul 2025. Over the weekend, US officials stated that announcements of more trade deals are likely before the deadline. However, the US President also stated higher tariff rates (up to 70%) for countries who have failed to negotiate, will take effect from 1 Aug 2025. So far, the US has struck a trade deal with the UK and Vietnam and a tentative agreement with China. India is supposedly close to a trade deal, but it remains to be seen if an official announcement could be made before the end of the deadline. Volatility can be expected to remain high tracking these developments, with the Indian market too awaiting more clarity on the trade deal.
Global stocks ended mixed. Hang Seng declined on US plans to curb AI chip shipments. Shanghai Comp got support from recent upbeat macro reading (PMI print). Nikkei firmed up, despite a stronger yen and uncertainty over trade deal with the US. Sensex inched up, led by oil and gas stocks. It is trading lower today, in line with other Asian stocks.

Despite weak macro data, EUR gained. INR depreciated marginally. It is trading further weaker today, tracking other Asian currencies.
Global 10Y yields traded thinly. Germany’s 10Y yield softened a tad as ECB official hinted that inflation might undershoot its target. US markets were closed. However, it’s 10Y yield is likely to firm up on fiscal concerns. India’s 10Y yield rose a tad and is trading further higher at 6.34% today. VRRR auction results showed buoyancy, indicative of surplus liquidity.

US President extended the tariff deadline to 1 Aug 2025, while also stating that the new deadline was “not 100% firm”. This provided a brief reprieve to investor sentiments. At the same time, the US President raised tariffs on key trading partners Korea and Japan to 25%. Both the countries have stated that they would step up efforts to expedite trade negotiations with the US. A few other countries including Bangladesh, Thailand etc. were also notified of higher tariff rates applicable from 1 Aug 2025. The tariff rates are broadly at similar levels as those announced on 2 Apr 2025. The US administration is also expected to notify other trading partners of the new tariff rates in the coming days, while also stating that it remains open for consultations. Incidentally, EU and India were kept out of the fresh round of tariff announcements, as trade negotiations are set to be at advanced stages. Volatility is likely to remain high tracking US tariff news.
Global stocks ended lower. US President’s imposition of higher tariff on Japan, South Korea and South Africa soured equity market sentiments. US Stocks fell the most. Sensex closed flat as gains in oil and gas stocks were offset by decline in tech stocks. It is trading higher today, in line with other Asian stocks.
Global currencies ended weaker as the dollar strengthened. DXY rose by 0.3% on tariff jitters. JPY depreciated the most by 1.1% as US President upped his tariff antics.

Higher surplus liquidity may lead to more VRRR announcements by RBI this week.

Oil prices rose even as OPEC+ announced higher production in Aug’25.
Tariff concerns were reignited as US President threatened to impose 50% tariff on copper imports, along with introducing higher tariffs on semiconductors and pharmaceuticals. A 200% tariff was proposed on pharma imports, although it was stated that this could be pushed back by a year. The US President also indicated that the US was close to reaching a trade deal with the Eurozone as well as China. At the same time, the President reiterated his threat of imposing 10% tariff on BRICS countries, including India. In separate news, Reserve Bank of Australia held rates steady, in sharp contrast to market expectations of a 25bps rate cut. The split decision (6-3) was based on uncertainty over the inflation outlook due to global developments. In India, RBI announced a 2-day VRRR auction worth Rs. 1lakh crores as liquidity continues to remain in surplus.
An amalgamation of sentiments is coming into play while assessing market dynamics. Asian stocks were broadly comforted from the extension of tariff deadline till 1 Aug 2025.

It is trading lower today, while Asian stocks are trading mixed.

The benchmark security is trading flat today.

US tariff policies continued to dominate global market headlines as US President imposed a 50% tariff on copper imports. Additionally, a 50% tariff was also applied on imports from Brazil. The US administration also issued tariff letters to seven smaller trading partners including Sri Lanka, Philippines and Iraq with tariff rates ranging between 20-30%. These tariffs are set to take effect from 1 Aug. Investors have so far downplayed the impact of the latest tariff measures, even though copper prices in the US soared to a record high after the announcement. Separately, minutes of the Fed meeting indicated that rate cuts are likely towards the end of the year, as members sought more clarity on the impact of tariffs on inflation. Bank of Korea kept its interest rate steady and maintained an accommodative monetary policy stance while warning of significant economic uncertainty due to US tariffs.

This was despite the fact that the Fed minutes hinted at inflationary concerns. 10Y yield in UK and Germany also softened. India’s 10Y yield rose a tad. The 2-day VRRR saw a favourable cut off yield. More such announcements will be on the cards. 10Y yield is trading flat today.

Trade tensions were once again reignited as the US President announced 35% tariff on Canada, with a few exceptions. This was higher than the 25% tariff which was announced earlier. The President also threatened to increase the tariff rate further, if Canada choses to retaliate. Alongside, it was also proposed to impose blanket tariffs on almost all trading partners to be applicable from 1 Aug 2025. The proposed tariff is likely to range between 15-20%. Separately, US jobless claims for the week ended 5 July 2025 fell to 227,000 (est. 235,000), providing evidence of a strong labour market. Inflation in Germany dipped to 2% in Jun’25 from 2.1% in May’25, led by lower energy and food prices.
