Brazil Producers Look to Halt Pig Iron Output as US Tariff Threat Crimps Demand
Some of Brazil's pig iron producers are looking at halting operations as tariff tensions shrink demand from customers in the US, the top buyers of cargoes from the South American nation. Modulax will shut down operations next week, with plans for doing maintenance work that was originally scheduled for later in the year, according to the Chief Executive Officer Geraldo Basques. 'We have no date to resume production,' he said in an interview, citing the trade concerns. Rival producer Css Siderurgica Setelagoana said in an emailed statement that it's operating with raw-material inventories while awaiting more clarity on the tariff situation, but also warned that it could be forced to shutter operations once the stockpiles are depleted. The moves come as US President Donald Trump threatened a 50% levy on the Latin American country starting Aug. 1. US importers are taking a wait-and-see stance before accepting possible higher prices for the material — a critical component needed to make steel in the US. Brazilian producers are considering granting paid leave to workers along with layoffs as some buyers have already suspended contracts, said Fausto Varela, head of industry union Sindifer. The union has been in talks with Brazilian lawmakers as trade negotiations between the nation and the US haven't progressed as expected. 'It is almost impossible to redirect these sales to other markets in the short term,' said Varela. 'If there is no market, there is no way around it: we'll stop.' Brazil is the US's largest supplier of the material. And the trade is crticial for the South American economy. Roughly a third of Brazil's pig iron exports in the first half this year went the US, according to government data.

India-UK trade pact: Tariff cut may not impact Scotch whisky retail prices
The India-UK free trade agreement (FTA), under which tariffs on whisky and gin have been halved from 150 per cent to 75 per cent, which will further fall to 40 per cent in a decade's time, will not necessarily impact prices of Scotch whisky and gin for Indian consumers. According to a May 2025 report from the International Wine & Spirit Research (IWSR), blended Scotch grew the strongest of all the large whisky categories in India in 2024, with volumes rising by medium single digits and sales more than doubling since 2020. India is known to be a whisky market, with widespread national sales. However, while the data company's forecasts anticipated an upside from the FTA, it added that its impact should not be overestimated. 'While tariffs have been slashed from 150 per cent to 75 per cent, the impact on shelf prices is closer to 10 per cent and it is not a given that this will be passed on to consumers,' it had stated in the 2025 executive summary. The revised tariffs will apply to both bottled-in-origin (BIO) and bulk imports. Industry executives agree, stating that tariffs make up only up to 15 per cent of the final retail price, and with state taxes and costs for distribution and marketing, prices could be down by a mere 10 per cent. This may not be passed on to consumers, they said on the condition of anonymity. A senior commerce ministry official said that a major portion of whisky imports into India are used in the manufacture of blended whisky, whose production is set to rise due to cheaper raw material. 'We are foreseeing significant strategic and cost advantages from this development. We have estimated our Scotch requirements at over ₹250 crore in 2025-26 (FY26), and this treaty represents a substantial opportunity for value creation,' said Abhishek Khaitan, managing director at Radico Khaitan, one of the largest importers of Scotch whisky. Some liquor players also believe that the FTA will help consumers have access to premium Scotch whisky at reduced prices. 'The UK FTA is a positive move for the Scotch whisky segment, and it will enhance accessibility and affordability for Indian consumers. For import-driven portfolios like ours, this could fast-track category adoption, bring price parity closer to Indian Made Foreign Liquor (IMFL), and enable deeper reinvestment into consumer-building efforts,' said Debashish Shyam, cofounder and director, Ardent Alcobev, which sells Dram Bell blended Scotch whisky. However, the real benefit, Shyam added, will depend on how quickly the duty reductions are implemented, and whether the states align their tax structures accordingly. Spirits made up 51.2 per cent of the total beverage alcohol market in 2024, dominated by whisky. According to the data company, India consumed 258,750 under-9-litre cases of whisky in 2024, which is set to witness a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 3.1 per cent from 2024 to 2029. These included 8,509.60 cases of Scotch whisky, the company stated, adding that India is set to become the biggest Scotch market in the world by 2027.

Trump's 50% tariff threat hits Brazilian chemical exports as US orders cancelled
Brazilian chemical exporters are seeing contracts cancelled after US President Donald Trump announced plans to impose a 50% tariff on Brazilian goods starting 1 August, Reuters reported. Brazil exported about $2.4 billion worth of chemical products to the United States last year. Since the tariff threat, orders for some products including resins and compounds used to make fertilisers have been cancelled, said Andre Cordeiro, head of Brazilian chemical industry group Abiquim. 'These decisions are being made because people believe he will actually go ahead with the tariff,' Cordeiro told Reuters on Friday. He said one company had all of its US export contracts cancelled, while others lost parts of their orders. In some cases, exporters had already arranged financing before the cancellations. Cordeiro did not name the affected companies. The impact is not limited to direct chemical exports. 'No one produces coffee, even grains, without some kind of chemical product in the process,' he said. According to Cordeiro, chemical firms are also losing domestic sales to Brazilian companies that export to the US. He cited plywood manufacturers, who use chemicals for bonding and have also lost orders, and orange juice producers, who rely on chemical preservatives. Last year, 42% of Brazil's orange juice exports went to the US. Large firms such as Braskem and Dow Chemical may also be affected. Braskem has operations in the US, while Dow, which runs 10 plants in Brazil, exports silicon metal to the American market. Neither company commented when contacted by Reuters. Exxon Mobil, which also operates in Brazil, declined to comment. Abiquim says the tariffs are unjustified, pointing out that Brazil's chemical sector runs a $7.9 billion trade deficit with the United States.
