050 | 特朗普关税风暴:草台班子的大棋?Trump's Tariff Storm: A Ragtag Crew's Grand Strategy?

【聊了什么】

特朗普在4月2日「解放日」突然宣布对全球主要贸易伙伴加征高额「对等关税」,引发金融市场剧烈动荡。在短短一周内经历了180度大转弯——对除中国外的多数国家暂停征收额外关税,但对华关税则进一步升级。

这背后究竟发生了什么?是特朗普政府深思熟虑的「一盘大棋」,旨在重塑全球贸易格局、打击特定国家?还是白宫内部不同派系——财政部、贸易鹰派(如纳瓦罗)、经济顾问(如Stephen Miran)——目标各异、甚至相互矛盾的结果?特朗普本人对关税根深蒂固的执念,与他第二任期不受约束的执政风格,又在其中扮演了什么角色?

本期节目,我们邀请了全球市场的交易员Sagar一起深入解读这场关税风暴。

本期节目录制于4月12日。

【 What We Talked About】

On "Liberation Day," April 2nd, Donald Trump abruptly announced hefty "reciprocal tariffs" on major global trading partners, sending shockwaves through financial markets. Within just one week, the policy underwent a dramatic U-turn – additional tariffs were suspended for most countries except China, whose tariffs were instead escalated.

What truly happened behind the scenes? Was it a calculated "grand strategy" by the Trump administration aimed at reshaping global trade and targeting specific nations? Or was it the result of conflicting, even contradictory, goals among different factions within the White House – the Treasury Department, trade hawks like Navarro, and economic advisors like Stephen Miran? What role did Trump's own deep-seated obsession with tariffs and his less constrained governing style in his second term play?

In this episode, we invite Sagar, a global markets trader, for an in-depth analysis of this tariff turmoil.
