Best-case scenario for trade war still isn't good, GlobalData TS Lombard says

Even the best case scenario for markets and the U.S. economy isn't so hot, according to Grace Fan, a global policy researcher at GlobalData TS Lombard.

The Trump administration "is clearly targeting 'quick win' deals with major trading partners by the end of the 90-day pause on July 9," Fan wrote Thursday. "In the best case, such interim trade deals would accompany a budget and tariff settlement in Congress that would also head off legal challenges, especially to the 'baseline' universal 10% tariff," she said.

A best case at mid-year would also result in "the China stand-off parked in a holding zone." But, unfortunately, "even if all of that were achieved (a long shot), business uncertainty would be reduced but far from eliminated."

The researcher argues that, "Recession risk is the key determinant of Trump seeking off-ramps: how high is his pain threshold? Probably lower than its main trade-war opponents." At the same time, damaged confidence in the U.S. dollar and Treasurys means "there is limited fiscal policy headroom ... while tariff-related inflation pressure inhibits Fed interest rate cuts."
