Stock Market LIVE Updates: Fed officials caught between inflation worries, slowdown fears amid tariffs
Stock Market LIVE Updates: The US economy is mostly in good shape but that isn't saving Federal Reserve chair Jerome Powell from a spell of angst.
As the Fed considers its next moves during a two-day meeting this week, most economic data looks solid: Inflation has been steadily fading, while the unemployment rate is still a historically low 4.2 per cent. Yet President Donald Trump's widespread tariffs may push inflation higher in the coming months, while also possibly slowing growth.
With the outlook uncertain, Fed policymakers are expected to keep their key interest rate unchanged on Wednesday at about 4.4 per cent. Officials will also release a set of quarterly economic projections that are expected to show inflation will accelerate later this year, while unemployment my also tick up a bit. READ MORE

Stock Market LIVE Updates: Weak JLR guidance, domestic sales worries weigh on Tata Motors stock
Stock Market LIVE Updates: Tata Motors' stock has declined 8.4 per cent over the past four trading sessions, weighed down by multiple demand-related headwinds impacting its UK subsidiary, Jaguar Land Rover (JLR).
In response to these challenges, the company has revised its FY26 margin guidance downward, prompting several brokerages to downgrade the stock.
JLR has lowered its FY26 earnings before interest and taxes or Ebit margin guidance from 10 per cent to a range of 5–7 per cent.
This revision reflects a mix of macro and industry-specific pressures, including the evolving US tariff regime, the ongoing transition to electric vehicles, and a sluggish demand outlook in China. READ MORE

Stock Market LIVE Updates: US FDA to fast-track drug reviews for firms backing national priorities
Stock Market LIVE Updates: US regulators will begin offering faster reviews to new medicines that administration officials deem as promoting the health interests of Americans, under a new initiative announced Tuesday.
Food and Drug Administration Commissioner Marty Makary said the agency will aim to review select drugs in one to two months. FDA's long-standing accelerated approval program generally issues decisions in six months for drugs that treat life-threatening diseases. Regular drug reviews take about 10 months.
Since arriving at the FDA in April, Makary has repeatedly told FDA staff they need to challenge assumptions and rethink procedures. In a medical journal commentary published last week, Makary suggested the agency could conduct rapid or instant reviews," pointing to the truncated process used to authorize the first Covid-19 vaccines under Operation Warp Speed.

Stock Market LIVE Updates: FMCG companies in wait-and-watch mode as global crude oil prices climb
Stock Market LIVE Updates: Fast-moving consumer goods (FMCG) companies expect some impact from the rise in crude oil prices but say it is still too early to determine whether it will affect overall demand.
While packaging and freight costs could rise, companies are still in wait-and-watch mode before increasing prices of finished items ranging from biscuits to soaps, where derivatives of crude oil are used.
Freight and packaging typically account for up to 20 per cent of FMCG companies' costs. Consumer goods companies also hedge their raw material positions for a period of three to six months, depending on the commodity. READ MORE

Stock Market LIVE Updates: Draft Income tax Bill, 2025: LLPs likely to retain LTCG benefits
Stock Market LIVE Updates: The government is likely to fix a key omission in the draft Income Tax (I-T) Bill, 2025, which could have widened the scope of alternate minimum tax (AMT) for non-corporate taxpayers such as partnership firms and limited liability partnerships (LLPs) that were earning only long-term capital gains (LTCG), according to a senior official.
The proposed legislation had removed a reference to Chapter VI-A deductions, which serves as a key qualifier for when AMT applies to non-corporate entities. Without this reference, the draft Bill appeared to imply that such entities would be liable to pay AMT. READ MORE

Stock Market LIVE Updates: Block deal window: Sebi unlikely to revise rules despite elusive deals
Stock Market LIVE Updates: The Securities and Exchange Board of India (Sebi) is unlikely to revise the rules governing the special block deal window, despite the ongoing challenges in deal execution, according to officials and industry insiders.
Currently, exchanges operate two 15-minute block deal windows — one from 8:45 am to 9:00 am, and another from 2:05 pm to 2:20 pm — on all trading days. Orders can be placed in these windows only if the sale price is within 1 per cent above or below the previous day's closing price.
This narrow price band makes deal execution particularly challenging. Investment bankers have been lobbying with Sebi to widen the price band to 3 per cent to facilitate more deals through this window. However, the market regulator is expected to maintain the status quo. READ MORE

Stock Market LIVE Updates: Global trade uncertainty, high capital costs may further hit FDI flows
Stock Market LIVE Updates: Data released last week showed that India's retail inflation rate declined to 2.8 per cent in May, the lowest in 75 months. Significant moderation in previous months enabled the Reserve Bank of India's (RBI's) Monetary Policy Committee (MPC) to reduce the policy repo rate by 50 basis points on June 6, as against the expectation of a 25 basis point cut.
Along with front-loading the rate cut, the MPC noted that monetary policy is left with very limited space to support growth. Some private-sector economists have argued that the inflation rate in the current year will be significantly lower than the RBI's projection of 3.7 per cent, potentially creating space for further rate cuts.

Trump rattles markets again with new levies

US President Donald Trump formally imposed a 25% tariff on Indian exports late on Thursday in a sweeping executive order that hit dozens of trading partners with new levies, escalating his global trade war as the Friday deadline approached. US President Donald Trump (REUTERS) The Republican pressed ahead with a trade policy that initially sparked market sell-offs when announced in April. On Friday, global shares stumbled, with Europe's STOXX 600 down 1.8% and Wall Street opening sharply lower. Indian equity benchmark indices Sensex and Nifty fell 0.72% and 0.82% respectively. Goods from India face the 25% levy plus an unspecified penalty for Russian oil purchases after talks bogged down over access to India's agriculture and other sensitive sectors, with New Delhi refusing to open its labour-intensive farms to unfettered American imports. Trump's executive order also set punitive rates for 69 trading partners, including 35% duties on Canada, 50% for Brazil, 20% for Taiwan and 39% for Switzerland, as a previously announced 12.01am EDT August 1 deadline approached. Goods from unlisted countries face a 10% baseline tax. The new levies come into effect on August 7. India now faces higher tariff rates than regional competitors, with Thailand, Indonesia and Malaysia set for 19% duties while Bangladesh, Vietnam and Taiwan face 20% rates—potentially weakening India's position as a preferred sourcing destination for US companies. India exports $86.5 billion worth of goods to the US, with a surplus of $41 billion. However, industry experts estimate that a significant chunk of Indian goods may avoid the higher duties for now since the Trump administration has exempted electronics, pharmaceuticals, energy products and critical minerals from additional tariffs citing national interest. Nonetheless, analysts expect a significant impact for India's exports. Ratings agency ICRA has lowered its growth forecast for India's GDP from 6.2% to 6.0%, with further reductions possible if additional penalties are imposed. The Global Trade Research Institute estimates India's goods exports could decline by 30% to $60.6 billion in FY26. 'The tariff announced for India is higher than other Asian countries such as Vietnam (20%), Indonesia (19%), and Japan (15%), which can potentially weaken India's position as a preferred sourcing destination, particularly in sectors like textiles, cut and polished diamonds, tyres, metals, and auto components,' ICRA said in a report. Questions loom over India's purchases of discounted Russian energy, which have prompted threats of additional penalties as Washington seeks to restrict Moscow's export revenues to push President Putin into Ukraine peace talks. 'Several options exist for India to diversify its crude purchases as Russian crude accounted for less than 2% of Indian crude imports prior to FY2023. However, the potential impact of cutting off Russian oil from the international market would be a significant increase in international oil prices as Russian oil exports account for 7% of global liquids consumption,' said Prashant Vashisht, senior vice president at ICRA. 'A significant spike in crude prices could lead to higher crude import bill and under recoveries on sale of liquified petroleum gas, petrol and diesel for the oil marketing companies. A $10/barrel increase in crude oil prices would increase the oil import bill by about $13-14 billion,' Vashisht added. He warned that disrupting Russian energy exports could also make domestic gas and LNG imports more expensive for India. India's tariff rate could be reduced if New Delhi and Washington finalise a trade deal, which both countries have been negotiating since February. However, disagreements over market access—particularly in agriculture—as well as tariff reciprocity and ongoing WTO disputes have held up progress. 'A trade agreement will have a meaningful impact in accelerating our already-robust economic relationship. But an agreement would be more significant to further improve our larger strategic relationship. Not long ago, any type of trade agreement was seen as nearly-impossible, yet we are now on the verge,' said Rick Rossow, who holds the India chair at the Centre for Strategic and International Studies, a Washington DC-based think tank. Basant Sanghera, managing principal at the Asia Group and former US diplomat, warned of missed opportunities. 'It would be a missed opportunity if the trade deal doesn't go through. The interim trade package on the table is substantial, especially by the standards of the US-India economic relationship, and it provides a foundation for future engagement.' Sanghera argued there was a risk of problems worsening unless the leadership on both sides take on a more active role. The tariff announcement also drew criticism from Capitol Hill, with Indian-American Congressman Ami Bera telling HT: 'As negotiations between the United States and India continue, it is vital that we pursue outcomes that reflect the strength of our bilateral relationship and advance our shared strategic interests. India is a close friend and strategic partner. President Trump's misguided and erratic statements do not reflect the bipartisan commitment to strengthening ties between our two nations.'

Who's feeling the pain of Trump's tariffs?

Editor's note (August 1st 2025): This article has been updated. Container ships are seen at the container terminal at Lianyungang port, in China's eastern Jiangsu province in the early morning on July 24, In the bygone age that was 2024, America charged levies averaging just 2% on its imports of goods. In the new era of trade wars, it now has an 'effective' tariff of over 16%, the highest since the 1930s (see chart 1). Rates look set to go even higher. On July 31st President Donald Trump signed an executive order that significantly raises tariffs on most of America's trading partners, with the increases due to go into effect on August 7th. Duties on most products from the European Union and South Korea, which recently struck deals with America, will rise to 15%. India faces a tariff of 25%; South Africa, 30%; Canada, 35%. As we published this, Mr Trump seemed inclined to extend America's tariff truce with China. But that still leaves the world's second-largest economy facing levies of around 40% on sales to the world's largest. Chart 1 Who pays for these tariffs, in all their infinite variety? Most economists reckon that ordinary Americans will lose out, as prices in shops rise. Mr Trump and his coterie, by contrast, blithely insist that the rest of the world will shoulder the load by cutting their selling prices. So far, the evidence is giving the know-nothings a glimmer of hope. Mr Trump's critics in the economics profession have history and research on their side. Studies show that when a country imposes duties on its imports, its foreign suppliers often keep their prices roughly the same. The tariff is layered on top. So it was during the first Trump administration, which slapped tariffs on China and others. A study from 2019 found 'complete pass-through of the tariffs into domestic prices of imported goods'. Some foreign firms are taking a similar stance in response to Mr Trump's new levies. In April Ferrari added up to 10% to the price of its cars. Britain's Ineos said it would charge more for its Grenadier off-roader. Canon, a camera-maker, has warned dealers to brace for price increases. But the broader pattern is more benign. There is, for example, surprisingly little evidence so far of tariff 'pass-through' into inflation. In June America's 'core' consumer prices (ie, excluding food and energy) rose by 0.2% on the previous month, below the consensus estimate of 0.3%. Economists have found some evidence of tariff-induced price rises—in car parts, for instance—but they have had to look harder for it than they had expected. What explains these surprising results? American firms, not consumers, may be paying for the trade war by accepting lower profits, suggests research by Deutsche Bank. Some firms also boosted inventories before the tariffs were implemented, allowing them to avoid raising their prices for now. America's foreign suppliers may also be sharing more of the load than they did in Mr Trump's first term. Nintendo, a Japanese electronics firm, is keeping the American price of the Switch 2 games console at $449.99. Many Chinese manufacturers seem prepared to follow Nintendo and absorb duties: Fuling, a supplier of cutlery, says its clients expect it to shoulder 'part of the increased tariff costs'. TIRTIR, a South Korean beauty brand popular with American Gen Zers, has signalled that it can absorb most of the tariffs. Games Workshop, a British manufacturer of war games, also seems resigned to taking the hit, warning investors that tariffs could reduce annual profits by £12m ($16m). 'We found tentative evidence that Korean auto exporters are shouldering the cost of higher US tariffs, at least for now,' wrote Kim Jin-Wook of Citigroup, a bank, in a recent note. The Bank of Japan tracks the prices of the country's car exports to America. In yen terms, they have fallen by 26% in the past year. Some of that decline may reflect exchange-rate movements. An unchanged dollar price brings in fewer yen when the American currency is weak. But that only raises another question: why are Japan's carmakers not raising their dollar prices more vigorously in response? More comprehensive data point in a similar direction. The Economist assembled a series on export prices from a number of America's largest trading partners, including Canada, Germany and South Korea. In the past exporters in these countries have been perfectly willing to raise prices: during the inflationary surge of 2021-22, they increased them by more than 15% over a 12-month span (see chart 2). Yet in the past year the average local-currency price of their exports has fallen by 3.6%. Nothing of the sort happened during Mr Trump's first trade war. Who-s-feeling-the-pain-of-Trump-s-tariffs- Some economists have noted a disconnect between what foreigners report and what American importers say they are paying. For instance, it is hard to find much evidence of plunging prices for Japanese car imports. Economists at Citi speculate that the time it takes to ship a foreign product to an American port may explain the puzzle. It 'implies a lag between falling export prices and when US import-price data would capture the decline', they say. Why might foreign suppliers be so forgiving? Some bosses worry more than before about the American consumer. With high inflation a recent memory, people already think that everything is too expensive. They have little tolerance for paying even higher prices. The opposite may be true of the foreign companies themselves. They are in a good financial position to withstand the tariffs. Aggregate margins of listed companies in emerging markets have become fatter over the past decade, increasing by over two percentage points. European firms have enjoyed similar gains. These companies can afford to take a small hit to profits, at least for now. Before long America's economy is likely to feel the pain of the trade war more acutely. Although some Chinese firms may have lowered their prices, these cuts are not nearly deep enough to offset the huge rise in tariffs they now face, points out Deutsche Bank's research. In addition, foreign companies that have borne the costs until now may not be able to bear them for ever—especially if tariff rates keep ratcheting up. The president loves defying his adversaries, in the economics profession and beyond. But he is always his own worst enemy.
