*As we follow US tariff newsflow, remember:* โผ๏ธ *If the US puts blanket high import tariffs on all its major suppliers, who ultimately pays this tariff?* Experts and Economic studies say- - If the increased duties are passed on in the final price of the product: *US consumers pay in terms of higher inflation* - If some part is borne by the US corporates who are importing: *Those US corporate profits take a hit and those companies reduce labour and/or investments.* Also, some inflation for US consumerโ - If the tariffs are passed on and lead to fall in consumer demand: *US economy and US investors (in those companies who have international supply chains) take a hit. Exporting nation also suffers* - If these tariffs lead to trade wars: global trade slows, economies slow and inflation rises leading to *stagflation*. Only very selective tariffs or low rates, protect domestic industry, save jobs and generate income. Infact, *the recent to and fro on tariff implementation will discourage US corporates from capex as they are uncertain of future policy*. โจ

Quick comment on the markets post *Union Budget 2025* โจ โA lot of people are asking me, *โif the budget is so good for the economy, why are the equity markets down?โ* *Equity Market movement* on a particular day or a week have several factors affecting it. Some negative news (specially liquidity related) are overpowering in the short term. During such days, even if there is an emergence of a strong long term positive trigger, it may take time for the full reaction to show up. Currently, the world equity markets are processing the new tariff announcements by the US on Mexico, Canada and China. There is fear of outflow from emerging market funds which is keeping emerging markets, including India, under pressure. There is no direct involvement of India in tariffs announced by President Trump during the weekend. This budget is one of the best budgets presented. It will set a wave of positive ripples in the economy and have a positive impact on many businesses. ๐ *_In the short term, markets are a voting machine; in the long term they are a weighing machine._* In the short term, liquidity flows can impact markets and keep them volatile. In the long term, the strength of the countryโs economic and business growth determines the market direction. This budget has provided a significant positive to the long term growth trajectory of India.โ _Nimesh Chandan_ _CIO, Bajaj Finserv AMC_

*Quick Take on Union Budget 2025* โThis budget is one of the best budgets presented. Government continued of the fiscal consolidation path, which has many long term benefits to the economy. At the same time, it has addressed the immediate need to boost consumption. Capex growth in FY26 seems less but will be better than revised estimates of FY25. All in all this budget will have a positive impact on the economy, businesses and marketsโ _Nimesh Chandan_ _CIO, Bajaj Finserv AMC_
