Investors head into Trump tariff deadline benumbed and blase

SINGAPORE/NEW YORK, July 6 (Reuters) - Global investors are heading into U.S. President Donald Trump's Wednesday deadline for trade tariffs palpably unexcited and prepared for a range of benign scenarios that they believe are already priced in. Just days before the end of a 90-day pause he announced on his April 2 "Liberation Day" tariffs, Trump said the first batch of letters outlining the tariff levels they would face on exports to the United States would be sent to 12 countries on Monday. Investors who have been tracking this date for months expect more details to emerge in the coming days and protracted uncertainty too, anticipating Trump will not be able to complete deals with all of America's trading partners in the coming week. And they are not overly concerned. 'The market has gotten much more comfortable, more sanguine, when it comes to tariff news,' said Jeff Blazek, co-chief investment officer of multi-asset at Neuberger Berman in New York. 'The markets think that there is enough 'squishiness' in the deadlines – absent any major surprise – to not be too unsettled by more tariff news and believe that the worst-case scenarios are off the table now.' Both the tariff levels and effective dates have become moving targets. Trump said on Friday that tariffs ranging up to 70% could go into effect on August 1, levels far higher than the 10%-50% range he announced in April. So far, the U.S. administration has a limited deal with Britain and an in-principle agreement with Vietnam. Deals that had been anticipated with India and Japan have failed to materialize, and there have been setbacks in talks with the European Union. World stocks (.MIWD00000PUS), opens new tab are meanwhile at record highs, up 11% since April 2. They fell 14% in three trading sessions after that announcement but have since rallied 24%. "If Liberation Day was the earthquake, the tariff letters will be the aftershocks. They won't quite have the same impact on markets even if they are higher than the earlier 10%," said Rong Ren Goh, a portfolio manager in the fixed income team at Eastspring Investments in Singapore. "This financial system is so inundated with liquidity that it is hard to cash up or delever at the risk of lagging the markets, with April serving as a painful reminder for many who derisked and were then forced to chase the relentless recovery in the subsequent weeks." Investors have also been distracted by weeks of wrangling in Congress over Trump's massive tax and spending package, which he signed into law on Friday. Stock markets have celebrated the passage of the bill, which makes Trump's 2017 tax cuts permanent, while bond investors are wary the measures could add more than $3 trillion to the nation's $36.2 trillion debt. The S&P 500 (.SPX), opens new tab and Nasdaq (.IXIC), opens new tab indexes closed at record highs on Friday, notching a third week of gains. Europe's STOXX 600 benchmark (.STOXX), opens new tab is up 9% in three months. But the risks of tariff-related inflation have weighed on U.S. Treasuries and the dollar, and jostled expectations for Federal Reserve policy. Rate futures show traders no longer expect a Fed rate cut this month and are pricing in a total of just two quarter-point reductions by year-end. The dollar has suffered a knock to its haven reputation from the dithering on tariffs. The dollar index , which reflects the U.S. currency's performance against a basket of six others, has had its worst first half of the year since 1973, declining some 11%. It has fallen by 6.6% since April 2 alone. "The markets are discounting a return to tariff levels of 35%, 40% or higher, and anticipating an across-the-board level of 10% or so,' said John Pantekidis, chief investment officer at TwinFocus in Boston. Pantekidis is cautiously optimistic about the outlook for U.S. stocks this year, but the one variable he is watching closely is interest rate levels. For now he expects to see interest rates dip in the second half, 'but if the bond market worries about the impact of the bill and rates go up, that's a different scenario.'

The insider guide to summer in New York City

American author EB White once quipped about this city of eight and a half million inhabitants: 'New York provides not only a continuing excitation but also a spectacle that is continuing.' And while he may have said this nearly a century ago, his words still ring true to this day. The surface of New York City may be always transforming, but its heart never really changes. Over the course of a weekend in New York spend one day seeing the sites in Manhattan and another day wandering the heart of global hipsterism in Brooklyn for the ultimate city break. Here's how to do it. And for further New York inspiration, see our guides to the city's best hotels, restaurants, nightlife, bars, shopping, attractions and free things to do. In this guide: What's new in New York this summer Eat: Take a bite out of Brooklyn Confidant, an industrial-chic seafood-leaning spot, is the first quasi-fine-dining restaurant in Industry City, a mixed-use former warehouse space with art galleries, shops, and restaurants. One of the buzziest new spots in the borough is The Snail, serving up bistro-style American feel-good fare (think: lamb tartare and pasta with crab doused in saffron-spiked beurre blanc). Il Gigante, located in Ridgewood, Queens, just across the Brooklyn border, is a new rustic space and is the ideal venue for way-above-average central Italian fare. Drink: Rooftops in Manhattan High-altitude alfresco imbibing has recently made a major comeback and this season a few new rooftop spots are heating up the scene. Newly opened Hudson VU, hugging the Hudson River on the 16th floor, shakes up craft cocktails with 360-degree views of the Midtown skyline. Also in Midtown is the new Italian-accented Bar Sprezzatura, 16 floors above the street, where Gen Z'ers and Millennials go to sip Aperol spritzes and gawk at the sunset. Downtown, the new One40 serves up classic and signature cocktails with stunning views of the World Trade Center and the twinkling lights of the lower Manhattan skyline. See: Summer art exhibits The Guggenheim is showing a retrospective of the work of Rashid Johnson, titled A Poem for Deep Thinkers, with 90 of his works on display in the Frank Lloyd Wright-designed rotunda, until January 2026. On various evenings from June until August, point yourself north of Manhattan for Bronx World Film, where screenings of artsy cutting-edge films by artists, such as Spanish-born Ivana Larrosa, will be shown. How to spend your weekend Day one: morning Hit Central Park for an early-morning stroll through this 843-acre-sized patch of greenery that looks like it was carved out of the urban landscape. The park, designed by genius landscape architect Frederick Law Olmsted, is a great spot to feel submerged in nature, far from the bustle of the big city. Try to emerge from the park on the south-east corner. That way you're only a small stroll from one of the best modern art museums in the United States (if not the world): The Museum of Modern Art. The museum, best known as MoMa, has a vast collection of work by late-19th and 20th century artistic visionaries, including Van Gogh, Rousseau, Picasso, Dali, Mondrian, Warhol, Monet, Matisse, Frida Kahlo, Jasper Johns and Warhol. The best way to tackle MoMa is to take the lift to the top floor and work your way down (the most memorable works are on the top two floors). Welcome to Monkey Bar, a nearly 90-year-old restaurant with enough dimly lit atmosphere to make you feel like you've time travelled back a few eras when the three-martini lunch was still a thing. You can tuck into a dry-aged ribeye or one of the best burgers in the city. If you're starving, MoMA's in-house eatery, The Modern, is also exceptional. Pro-tip: for something more casual and more affordable, grab a seat at the bar and order from the a la carte menu. Afternoon Walk off that Big Apple meal with an amble down the High Line, a long stretch of once-abandoned elevated railroad track on Manhattan's west side that was converted into an aerial park. It has become an instant Big Apple institution, wowing visitors and locals with its cool design that incorporates much of the natural surrounding. Start at the top of the High Line on W. 34th St. and then work your way down. That way you'll be deposited right into the atmospheric Meatpacking District. Before hopping on the High Line, though, point yourself to Hudson Yards, a new-ish complex of glass towers that New Yorkers love to hate. The best thing about Hudson Yards are the restaurants. And one of the best places to fill the stomach is BondSt, a downtown sushi stalwart that recently opened an outlet here. Weekend brunch serves up Japanese-accented mid-morning fare, plus there's just-pulled-from-the-sea sushi and other Japanese standards. Once you reach the end of the High Line, head west to the Hudson River to see Manhattan's latest attraction: Little Island. Designed by London-based Thomas Heatherwick, the one-hectare artificial island in the Hudson River is free to enter. The lush island is etched with trails and provides stellar views of the Manhattan skyline. Since the High Line spills out into the Meatpacking District and the West Village, take a breather at Té Company, where you can sip hard-to-find oolong teas from Taiwan and nibble on snacks made by chef Frederico Ribeiro who has logged time at multiple Michelin-starred restaurants. Or, just steps away on the improbable corner of West 4th and West 10th Streets, is St. Jardim, which is a coffee bar during the day and a natural wine spot in the evening. Late When the stomach starts rumbling again, head to Minetta Tavern on historic and dynamic MacDougal Street in Greenwich Village. Minetta boasts a classic old-school New York vibe that serves up one of the best burgers in the city and can shake or stir up an excellent martini. Have a nightcap at Sip & Guzzle, a Japanese cocktail bar that started shaking and stirring cocktails in early 2024. The sleek, two-level spot is brought to you by alums of Employee's Only and Angel's Share, two other great West Village cocktail bars. Day two: morning Spend part of day two exploring Brooklyn. Get there by strolling across the Brooklyn Bridge, one of the most iconic spans in North America. The 271-ft-tall neo-gothic arches are certainly the bridge's trademark, but ambling along the elevated pedestrian walkway is a must for any visitor. Once off the bridge, walk through leafy, historic Brooklyn Heights, especially the promenade above the river that offers splendid views of the downtown Manhattan skyline. And then, point yourself toward the tree-lined atmospheric neighbourhood of Cobble Hill. Here is where you'll find St Julivert Fisherie. Run by the husband-and-wife chef team Alex Raij and Eder Montero (who also run the excellent nearby La Vara), St. Julivert is an excellent seafood spot with an emphasis on European and South American coastal cuisine. Work off your lunch by taking in more art at the Brooklyn Museum, the second largest museum in New York City. The 1895 Beaux Arts building include works by Mark Rothko, Edward Hopper, Georgia O'Keeffe and Edgar Degas. If you prefer to stay outdoors, go next door to the Brooklyn Botanic Garden, where thousands of types of flora will take you miles away from the bustle of the Big Apple. Seek out the particularly peaceful Japanese Hill and Pond Garden. Afternoon For some post-sunset fun, head back to Manhattan. Linger for a while in Washington Square Park where bohemians and beatniks, street performers and students from nearby New York University give the place a groovy and fun vibe. On warmer days, children play in the fountain and jazz musicians thump out tunes. If the weather is not agreeable, pop into Blue Note where, since 1981, jazz and soul greats like Sarah Vaughn and Ray Charles, among many others, have taken the stage. Then plant yourself at Anton's on Hudson Street, where you can tuck into excellent pasta dishes in a dimly lit ambience. Late Afterwards, wander a few blocks north to the new 8th St. hotspot, Mace; an avant-garde cocktail bar from French mixologist Nico de Soto. First timers should opt for anything with unlikely ingredients as de Soto has a way of mixing booze and things you wouldn't find in a cocktail glass (such as sweet potatoes or black pepper) and making it oh-so-quaffable. When to go Autumn creates a classic New York City vibe, plus the Halloween parade through Greenwich Village is not to be missed. In other times of year, there is always a great reason to be in the City that Never Sleeps. In winter, the ice skating rinks appear in Rockefeller Center, Bryant Park and Central Park. Restaurant Week takes place 21 January to 9 February, when you can score memorable meals for lunch and dinner at reduced prices. In spring shoulder season, the temperatures are on the rise and professional baseball has just begun – for Mets and Yankees fans, if you're into that sort of thing. In summer, the cafes have sidewalk seating, the New York Pride is amped up throughout all of June, culminating in the Pride parade the last weekend of June. Where to stay Luxury living The lavish Beekman Hotel, located way downtown, boasts spacious high-ceilinged rooms bedecked with vintage furniture and aged oak floors. Temple Court, the in-house restaurant by celeb chef Tom Colicchio, serves old-school New York fare, such as lobster Thermidor, but updated with seasonal ingredients. Designer digs The Ned 's new New York outpost is in the diminutive but fashionable NoMaD district (North of Madison Square). The 167 rooms, housed in a turn-of-the-century Beaux Arts building, are outfitted with dark wood and marble, complete with claw-foot bathtubs. The in-house eatery, Little Ned, serves up New York classics in an Art Deco-bedecked atmosphere.
