Trump's tax-cut legislation cleared its final hurdle in the U.S. Congress on Thursday, which will fund his immigration crackdown, make his 2017 tax cuts permanent and deliver new tax breaks that he promised during his 2024 campaign.
Through this bill 'we're not making any progress on getting our fiscal house in order here in the U.S., so in longer run, it should be bearish for the dollar and bullish for gold," Marex analyst Edward Meir said.
The nonpartisan Congressional Budget Office estimates the legislation would add $3.4 trillion over a decade to the nation's $36.2 trillion debt.

Trump threatens to slap 10 pec additional tariffs on BRICS countries for ‘Anti American' policies
Washington, July 7 (UNI) US President Donald Trump has threatened to slap an additional 10% trade tariffs which supported the alleged 'Anti-American' policies of BRICS nations. "Any Country aligning themselves with the Anti-American policies of BRICS, will be charged an ADDITIONAL 10% Tariff. There will be no exceptions to this policy," Trump said on Truth Social. The international multilateral bloc which was founded by Brazil, Russia, India, China, and South Africa as an alternative platform to challenge Western hegemony and promote the voices of developing countries, has long been criticised by the US President. BRICS has been viewed as a favourable bloc by many countries who have expressed their wish to join, and last year expanded to include Egypt, Ethiopia, Indonesia, Iran, Saudi Arabia and the United Arab Emirates, with Vietnam becoming a partner nation this year. Trump's comments came the bloc's members criticised the US tariff policies as well as proposing reforms to the International Monetary Fund (IMF) and how major currencies are valued, reports BBC. BRICS countries, who started a meeting in Rio de Janeiro this weekend, have called for reforms to global institutions and positioned the alliance as a platform for diplomacy amid escalating trade conflicts and geopolitical tensions. A joint statement by the bloc's Finance Ministers slammed the tariffs, labelling them as a threat to the global economy, and accused it of bringing "uncertainty into international economic and trade activities". The leaders also condemned the military strikes on Iran in June, criticising the attacks as a violation of international law. The summit was attended in person by world leaders, including Prime Minister Narendra Modi and South African President Cyril Ramaphosa. Russian President Vladmir Putin attended it online, while China was represented by Premier Li Qiang who stood in President Xi Jinping. UNI ANV GNK 1240

Modi's 'Act East Policy' Requires Him to In Fact 'Act' at Home
Modi will find it difficult to commit to a trade deal with a maverick and unpredictable US President without exposing himself to criticism at home. Anybody who knows anything about the way politics works in this country would have known that US president Donald Trump's 9 July deadline for a US –India free trade agreement was unrealistic. While Union commerce minister Piyush Goyal and his officials have logged many flying miles travelling between New Delhi and Washington DC, it was only inevitable that in the end Mr. Goyal would say that India does not make trade deals based on deadlines. It would do so only on the basis of the national interest. While a deal may yet be struck at the eleventh hour and Mr. Goyal's tactics may pay off, it will be a politically risky gamble given that the Monsoon Session of Parliament is just two weeks away. Prime Minister Narendra Modi will find it difficult to commit to a trade deal with a maverick and unpredictable US president without exposing himself to criticism at home. While President Trump has promised a 'win-win' deal, he is now known to interpret every deal as a win for his 'America First' strategy. However balanced a trade deal might be between India and the US, in the competition between Mr. Trump's 'America First' and Mr. Modi's 'India First', the political Opposition in India would have enough to go to town accusing the Modi government of once again 'surrendering' to President Trump's diktat. Just as the BJP opposed trade deals signed by the Manmohan Singh government, the Congress and Left parties would oppose whatever deal India strikes with the United States, especially in the present context. The context is important. The Modi government is still pushing back on criticism that it agreed to a ceasefire with Pakistan under pressure from President Trump. It can ill afford to be seen as buckling under pressure on the trade front. The stakes are high. It is not just the criticism from the political Opposition that would worry the Modi government but, even more so, the criticism from within its own support ranks. Even on trade policy, there are as many protectionist hawks within the Sangh Parivar as there are in the Opposition. Given the difficulties associated with declaring victory on a trade deal with the United States, the Modi government had no option but to place the trade negotiations on the back burner. There can be no movement forward until the Monsoon Session of Parliament is over. A larger challenge stares India's trade negotiators in the face. Ever since the early 1990s, when India opted to enter into a multilateral trade agreement, the government has zealously defended the country's status as a developing economy. India signed on to the membership of the World Trade Organisation after being assured that, along with other developing economies, it would receive 'special and differential treatment' (SDT). India remains a protectionist economy by Asian standards. There was a time, during the tenures of the Atal Bihari Vajpayee and the Manmohan Singh governments, when India would declare that the objective of its trade policy was to bring India's tariffs down to 'ASEAN levels'. This objective has never been restated by the Narendra Modi government, which has in fact raised tariff barriers across many product lines over the past decade. India's trade partners have been protesting all along, and in President Donald Trump they have found a strong advocate of their grievances. There is, therefore, a two-fold problem for Prime Minister Modi with respect to trade and tariff policy. On the one hand, he remains under pressure from within the ranks of the Sangh Parivar to stick to a more protectionist stance. There are many reasons put forward to justify this. On the other hand, the world outside says that if India is indeed in its 'Amrit Kaal' and is the world's fourth or third largest economy and on its way to becoming 'Viksit Bharat' and is a 'rising power', a 'leading power', and so on and so forth, then why behave like a low-middle-income developing economy seeking 'special and differential' treatment? The argument for protecting the agrarian economy and the interests of farmers stands on an altogether different foundation. The highly developed economies of Europe and Japan have defended trade protectionism in agriculture on cultural, social and political grounds. The protection of farmers and the farming economy and the cultivation of local varieties of various products is a legitimate policy objective. India stands on firm ground in rejecting an open-ended policy of trade liberalisation in agriculture. If the United States continues to insist on this front, the Modi government will have no option but to reject and resist all pressure. Neither India nor Japan can agree to trade liberalisation in farm produce without risking a domestic political backlash. The protectionist argument in the case of manufactured goods is, however, much weaker. A policy option that can be pursued would be for the government to come out with a timetable for trade liberalisation and tariff reduction, setting firm dates for sectors, and gradually allowing the rupee to depreciate to partly compensate for tariff cuts. This would be in tandem with the earlier and oft-repeated promise of bringing Indian tariffs 'down to ASEAN levels'. This is a long-stated goal and is one that should be implemented. Rather than berate the ASEAN countries and call them the 'B-team' of China, as Mr Goyal has ill-advisedly done, it is time India caught up with ASEAN on the trade and manufacturing fronts. It may be recalled that India's trade and industrial policy liberalisation began in the early 1990s inspired by the experience of ASEAN. It was after his visit to Malaysia that the then prime minister Vishwanath Pratap Singh tasked an official in the Prime Minister's Office, Montek Singh Ahluwalia, to come up with a roadmap that would enable India to catch up with Malaysia. Mr Ahluwalia's 'M Paper' was the result and formed the basis of Prime Minister P. V. Narasimha Rao's trade and industrial policy. The time has come again for India to 'catch up' with East and Southeast Asia as far as trade and industrial policies are concerned. Mr Modi's 'Act East Policy' requires him to in fact act at home.
