Is Trump’s tariff policy a dead end? The U.S. trade deficit hit $105.6 billion in August, a new high in more than a year

Is Trump’s tariff policy a dead end? The U.S. trade deficit hit $105.6 billion in August, a new high in more than a year

The U.S. Department of Commerce announced that the trade deficit reached US$105.6 billion in August, a month-on-month increase of 13.7%, exceeding market expectations. The expansion of the deficit is mainly affected by the increase in imports of AI infrastructure-related goods and the uncertainty of tariff policies. Although import growth reflects strong domestic demand, the trade deficit is still expected to drag down third-quarter GDP, prompting Goldman Sachs and the Atlanta Fed to lower their GDP growth forecasts.

LTN Economic Express》The Holy Infant is showing its power? The price of the cup on the table is about to rise

In July 2026, the price of Arabica coffee futures soared 18% to $3.57 per pound, setting the largest single-day increase in 26 years, and then fell sharply the next day. The market is worried that the El Niño phenomenon will intensify and excessive rainfall in Brazil will affect coffee supply, and ICE stocks have fallen to a 26-year low. At the same time, the Peruvian anchovy fishery has been affected by rising sea temperatures, with catches declining sharply and the price of fishmeal and fish oil more than doubling. Global cocoa, palm oil, sugar and other agricultural products are also facing climate pressure and supply uncertainty is increasing.

Germany's new industrial orders fell sharply in August from the previous month

According to data from the German Federal Statistical Office, after seasonal and calendar adjustments, new industrial orders in Germany fell by 10.6% month-on-month in August, the largest decline of the year. The decline followed three consecutive months of growth, mainly due to a 61.5% decrease in large orders for manufacturing military vehicles, aircraft and other transportation equipment. Excluding large orders, the month-on-month decrease was only 0.1%. Both domestic and foreign orders fell, with domestic orders down 17.3% and foreign orders down 5.4%. The industry is worried about weak domestic demand, but some economists believe that the overall positive situation has not changed.

Urgent·2 hours ago

The EU's "final negotiations" with China are about to begin, and a trade war is imminent.

EU Trade Commissioner Sefcovic will fly to Beijing from the 8th to the 9th to conduct trade negotiations described as "final negotiations." The EU has previously pressured China to propose specific measures to improve its trade deficit before October, otherwise it will use all available means. The report pointed out that the EU's trade deficit with China has expanded to an average of 1.18 billion euros per day. Europe is worried that the influx of cheap Chinese goods is threatening its industrial base and employment. If negotiations break down, a trade war may break out between the two sides.

Germany and France make tough proposals: Block China from entering the EU market if necessary

Germany and France sent a letter to the European Commission on the eve of the EU-China trade negotiations, advocating that the EU be empowered with trade weapons to immediately prevent China from entering the single market if necessary to counter China's economic coercion such as export controls on critical rare earths, and to expand the scope of investigations to the entire industry rather than specific products.
