From Visas to Jets, US and China Are Finding New Trade Leverage

From Visas to Jets, US and China Are Finding New Trade Leverage

Bloomberg10-06-2025
Donald Trump brought many of the same grievances to his second trade war against China, but the economic battleground that's emerged since then is making it harder to avoid a rupture this time around.
While tariffs kicked off the dispute, it's the new trade weapons being unsheathed by both sides that have come to define the latest standoff. And if the damage done so far is any indication, the scars will prove more enduring — no matter the outcome of trade talks in London that will continue into a second day on Tuesday.

JetBlue, United partnership gets go-ahead from U.S. Transportation Department

(Reuters) -JetBlue and United Airlines have cleared a review of their planned Blue Sky partnership by the U.S. Department of Transportation (DOT) allowing them to proceed with the implementation, the companies said on Tuesday. The two companies in May unveiled a partnership that would allow travelers to book flights on both carriers' websites, while interchangeably earning and using points in their frequent flyer programs. Spirit Airlines in June had urged the U.S. transportation body to reject the collaboration between the two carriers, saying it was anticompetitive and would prompt other large carriers to pursue similar deals. JetBlue and United said that Blue Sky would begin introducing new customer benefits starting in fall 2025, rolling them out in phases.

Flowserve Corporation Terminates Merger with Chart Industries

Flowserve Will Receive a $266 Million Termination Payment Flowserve Highlights Ability to Drive Enhanced Value Creation Through Strength of Platform and Momentum of the Flowserve Business System DALLAS, July 29, 2025--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Flowserve Corporation (NYSE: FLS) ("Flowserve"), a leading provider of flow control products and services for the global infrastructure markets, today announced it has terminated its previously announced merger agreement for Flowserve to combine with Chart Industries, Inc. (NYSE: GTLS) ("Chart"). The termination follows the Flowserve Board of Directors' decision not to submit a revised offer to merge with Chart, after being notified that Chart's Board of Directors had determined that a recent unsolicited acquisition proposal from Baker Hughes (NASDAQ: BKR) constituted a "superior proposal" under the terms of the merger agreement. In accordance with the terms of the merger agreement, Flowserve will receive a $266 million termination payment. "Flowserve is executing from a position of clear strength, driven by sustained financial momentum, impressive operational performance, and continued robust global demand for our mission-critical flow control solutions across the industrial spectrum," said Scott Rowe, Flowserve's President and Chief Executive Officer. "The decision not to pursue a revised offer for Chart demonstrates our commitment to financial discipline, as well as our confidence in the growth prospects of our standalone business. Our results reflect the successful execution of our 3D growth strategy—Diversify, Decarbonize, and Digitize—while the Flowserve Business System continues to enhance productivity, expand margins, accelerate decision-making, and unlock long-term value." Rowe continued, "We are generating strong free cash flow and delivering tangible progress across all business segments, positioning us to invest in innovation and strategic initiatives that support both our customers' evolving needs and global sustainability trends. Backed by a resilient business model and an aligned, high-performing organization, we are confident in our ability to deliver sustained, profitable growth, generate superior returns, and create long-term value for shareholders." In a separate press release issued today, the Company announced its financial results for the second quarter ended June 30, 2025.

However, management believes that non-GAAP financial measures which exclude certain non-recurring items present additional useful comparisons between current results and results in prior operating periods, providing investors with a clearer view of the underlying trends of the business. Management also uses these non-GAAP financial measures in making financial, operating, planning and compensation decisions and in evaluating the Company's performance. Non-GAAP financial measures, which may be inconsistent with similarly captioned measures presented by other companies, should be viewed in addition to, and not as a substitute for, the Company's reported results prepared in accordance with GAAP.
