Trump threatens 100% tariffs on BRICS nations over US dollar replacement plans

ety said:
So new deal for Japan. Trump reduces tariffs on Japanese goods to 15% while Japan opens up its markets and has 0% tariffs on US goods, unequal deal as expected. What's more, the Japanese also agreed to invest $550 billion in US and US will take 90% of the profits, wow, what are the dumb Japs doing, they are slaves to the Yanks for a reason, they just pay huge tribute to their masters.

Certainly a better deal than Vietnam got. And Japan is a pacifist country now. The age of even the modern Samurai ended with surrender and occupation by the Allied Powers.

They are officially slaves now, that's the only explanation.

better deal? let’s wait Trump says 20% but Vietnam gov hasn’t agreed to that dictate. we may end up to 11% as previously agreed.
the most shocking is Trump’s statement. he says “at my direction” Japan will invest $550 billion, the US takes 90% profit. the Japanese should be thankful for 10% profit.
what’s that?
that’s kissing Trump’s azz.

The devil is in the details. Most of the 500 bn is just repackaging of investments that would have happened anyway, and Japan is mostly going to be providing loans and loan guarantees rather than equity. So, they will get paid interest rather than profits.
 
All the rest about fair trade are BS from Trump, he just wants other countries to give US money, others are just slaves to US in Trump America eyes. Only China is telling US to take a hike, the rest of the world is kneeling to Trump including EU.

ok then let’s wait for the final wordings but from the first view this deal is ridiculous beyond ridiculous. the deal favors the US the most. even as loan that makes no sense either. will Trump take 90% from the interest earnings?

I guess you are not familiar with the corporate capital structure in the United States. The lending entities will get 100% of the interest. US entities will invest 90% of the equity capital, and, therefore be entitled to 90% of the profits.

Tesla Inks $4 Billion Battery Deal with South Korea’s LG to avoid Tariff Risks

Tesla has inked a landmark $4.3 billion battery supply agreement with South Korea’s LG Energy Solution (LGES), as the EV giant steps up efforts to curb its reliance on Chinese imports in response to tightening U.S. tariffs.

Sources familiar with the deal say LGES will supply lithium iron phosphate (LFP) batteries from its plant in Michigan, one of the few U.S.-based
facilities producing such batteries, as the LFP market is historically dominated by Chinese manufacturers.

Japan, like many other "allies" exported everything to the American market while importing very little from it. That party was going to end one day.
