CNBC Daily Open: Wishing upon a meteor that tariffs won't cause inflation

China’s producer prices plunged 3.6% in June from a year earlier, marking its largest decline since July 2023. The consumer price index edged 0.1% higher in June from a year ago, beating the estimates for a flat reading. Core CPI, stripping out food and energy prices, rose 0.7% from a year ago.China’s producer prices plunged 3.6% in June from a year earlier, marking its largest decline in nearly two years, as a deepening price war rippled through the economy that’s already grappling with tepid consumer demand.The consumer price index edged 0.1% higher in June from a year ago, according to data from the National Bureau of Statistics Wednesday, returning to growth after four consecutive months of declines.Economists had forecast a flat reading compared to the same period a year earlier, according to a Reuters poll.Core CPI, stripping out food and energy prices, rose 0.7% from a year ago, the biggest increase in 14 months, according to NBS.The drop in producer prices, however, came worse than the expected 3.2% in a Reuters poll and marked its biggest fall since July 2023, according to LSEG data. The PPI has been mired in a multi-year deflationary streak since September 2022.Mainland China’s CSI 300 index rose 0.19% following the release.“It is too early to call the end of deflation at this stage [as] the momentum in the property sector is still weakening [and] the ‘anti-involution’ campaign is still at its early phase,” said Zhiwei Zhang, president and chief economist at Pinpoint Asset Management. Involution, known colloquially as “neijuan” in China, refers to the price wars plaguing some consumer sectors.Last week, Chinese policymakers, in a top economic policy meeting chaired by President Xi Jinping, criticized the excessive price competition by Chinese companies to entice consumers and clear excess inventory, as the U.S. tariff onslaught has threatened the viability of selling to the world’s largest consumer market.Beijing pledged to tighten regulations on such aggressive price-cutting that has been unable to influence consumer behavior while biting into businesses’ profitability. Profits at industrial firms plunged 9.1% in May from a year earlier, marking the steepest fall since October last year.“Businesses should be guided to improve product quality and support the orderly phasing out of outdated production capacity,” a Chinese state-backed newspaper said, citing the meeting.The rebound in consumer prices last month was helped by a consumer goods trade-in scheme offering subsidies for household appliances, electronics and electric vehicles, said Zichun Huang, China economist at Capital Economics.That boost, however, will likely diminish in the second half of this year, Huang noted, denting the underlying inflation if the oversupply issue persists.“With goods supply continuing to outpace demand, persistent overcapacity means price wars among manufacturers are likely to continue,” Huang added.“Without a strong policy stimulus, it’s hard to escape the ongoing deflationary spiral,” said Larry Hu, chief China economist at Macquarie, adding that the momentum in China’s exports in recent months has partly pared back Beijing’s desire to stimulate consumption in any meaningful way.“Policymakers will keep waiting until exports fall sharply,” Hu added.China’s export growth has shown some resilience in recent months, even as the erratic U.S. tariff policies disrupted global trade. Chinese overall exports rose 4.8% in May and 8.1% in April, thanks to a surge in shipments to the Southeast Asian nations that largely offset the shrinking U.S.-bound goods.

Syria's Sharaa Met With Top Israeli Officials In 'Quiet' Normalization Effort: Reports

Syria's Sharaa Met With Top Israeli Officials In 'Quiet' Normalization Effort: Reports

Syria's Sharaa Met With Top Israeli Officials In 'Quiet' Normalization Effort: Reports A Syrian newspaper as well as several Israeli media sources are reporting that Syrian President Ahmed al-Sharaa, who previously went by Abu Mohammad al-Jolani and is the founder of Syrian al-Qaeda, has met with Israel's National Security Adviser Tzachi Hanegbi in Abu Dhabi in the United Arab Emirates.While the reports remain unconfirmed by Damascus, The Jerusalem Post says that this was not "the first such meeting" to take place, citing a Syrian source. But Israel quickly denied the reports: "Israel issued a statement denying the claim, noting that Hanegbi is in Washington as part of Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s delegation visiting the US." via Tehran TimesThe sources are calling the alleged meeting "a significant step in the Syrian‐Israeli negotiations" as part of potentially moving closer to achieving normalization base on the Abraham Accords.This could also be part of publicly known efforts to advance "quiet" talk with Israel in order to reach a security status quo. At the moment Israel's military still occupies a large portion of southern Syria, going well beyond the Golan Heights.Israel's YNet writes that "The expected agreement could include security guarantees, a pledge to counter terrorist activity, measures to curb Iranian influence, and a restriction of terror operatives near the border.""According to foreign reports, Israel has already used Syrian airspace to strike Iranian targets—suggesting informal coordination between the two nations, even if not official," the outlet adds.Damascus has continued to claim busting up 'Iranian terror' cells in various parts of the country. It is not expected to prioritize counter-ISIS operations given that many of the Sharaa/HTS government's own members are ISIS or former ISIS.The prior Assad government had lone been Israel's most formidable regional enemy, given it possessed Russian anti-aircraft systems and hosted Iranian forces. Israel, for its part, was part of the West's covert war to oust Assad.The timing of these reported Sharaa meetings with top Israeli officials is interesting given that it was only on Monday that the US formally lifted the longtime terror designation against his group, Hayat Tahrir al-Sham (HTS).Meanwhile, an interesting new revelation on Monday...JUST IN: TRUMP SAYS NETANYAHU WANTED SANCTIONS LIFTED OFF SYRIA“We took the sanctions off [Syria] because we want to give them a chance ... and I would love to be able to — at the right time — take those sanctions off [Iran], give them a chance at rebuilding, because I'd like... pic.twitter.com/dTkxg2vomr— Sulaiman Ahmed (@ShaykhSulaiman) July 8, 2025As we highlighted, the fact that Sharaa was a formally designated terrorist didn't stop President Trump from meeting with him during his Saudi visit months ago. Trump even praised him as a "young, attractive guy" who has a "real shot at doing a good job"Sadly, the message from the White House seems to be that Syria should prioritize ending the long-running state of conflict with Israel, but there's been barely a peep about the massacres being conducted against Syria's ancient Christian, Alawite, and Druze populations.

Trump ‘not happy with Putin,' accuses Russian leader of throwing ‘bulls—‘

The S&P 500 was trading little changed after President Donald Trump on Tuesday offered no exceptions to his Aug. 1 tariff start date.The broad market benchmark was little changed, while the Nasdaq Composite added 0.1%. The Dow Jones Industrial Average slipped 153 points, or 0.3%.Traders had trouble keeping up with the conflicting signals from Trump on trade. Trump on Monday pushed the tariff deadline to Aug. 1 from July 9. Then, late Monday he said that new deadline was “not 100% firm.”However, on Tuesday, the president posted on Truth Social that there would be no change or extensions granted to the Aug. 1 date. The same day, Trump also announced a steep 50% tariff on copper import.Tuesday’s listless action follows Monday’s deep sell-off with the Dow tumbling more than 400 points as Trump slapped 25% tariffs on South Korea and Japan. Trump hit at least 14 countries in total with new duties on Monday.Investors are waiting for further clarity, with many expecting the ultimate tariff rates to not be as strict as what Trump has threatened.“What we’ve seen since April has really been the markets getting past the idea that tariffs would have a particularly detrimental impact on growth, earnings, inflation, etc.,” said Bill Merz, head of capital markets research at U.S. Bank Wealth Management. “Investor sentiment has shifted a lot in a very short period of time and become more optimistic, as we can see in equity market pricing and how we’re right around all time highs across multiple indices.”On the upside, Nvidia nudged higher, closing in on a $4 trillion market cap. But banks helped weigh down the market, after HSBC adopted a “more cautious stance” on larger banks. Shares of JPMorgan and Bank of America shed 3%, while Goldman Sachs slipped 2%.The consumer will have to take some of the tariff increases, Evercore ISI analyst says Consumers are going to have to absorb some of the costs from higher tariffs, according to Mark Mahaney, head of internet research at Evercore ISI. Mahaney said he expects that price increases from tariffs can still come. He noted that a spike in costs that can be weathered by larger retailers such as Walmart, Home Depot and Amazon will be more challenging for smaller companies. “10%, 20%, 30% — those are big increases. Retail is a thin margin business. So if you’re going to increase your cost of inputs, that’s going to be passed along, and those companies can only eat so much of that,” Mahaney told CNBC’s “Power Lunch” on Tuesday. “Consumer is going to have to eat some of this,” he added. “We’re still in a wait and see mode. But this is more risk than we had a year ago. There’s more price risk here than we had a year ago.”— Sarah MinBias is to the upside for regional bank earnings, Raymond James saysIf the upcoming earnings season is going to show some warning signs about the economy, it likely won’t come from regional banks, according to Raymond James. Analyst Daniel Tamayo said in a note to clients that he has a generally optimistic outlook on that group heading into earnings. “We expect relative stability in EPS estimates with a bias to the upside during the July reporting season. Management commentary on credit has largely been stable during the quarter while a stronger likelihood of avoiding recession could lead to lower credit cost forecasts in the out quarters. We expect loan growth forecasts to remain mostly stable to slightly improved,” Tamayo said. Similarly, Raymond James also forecasts fee-based revenues to be stable with potential upside, the note said.As part of the outlook, Raymond James upgraded PNC Financial and Truist Financial to outperform from market perform.— Jesse PoundLoop Capital downgrades Shake Shack after stock’s recent surgeSmith Collection | Gado | Archive Photos | Getty ImagesShake Shack storefront with illuminated sign on a bustling street in New York City on Oct. 22, 2024.Shake Shack received a downgrade to hold from buy Tuesday morning by Loop CapitalAnalyst Alton Stump maintained his price target of $127, which indicates a roughly 9.5% potential decline from the stock’s latest close.Shares of the fast-food burger chain are up 7.4% this year. The stock saw a sell-off earlier this year amid the broader market slump and period of extreme tariff concerns, which Stump said “was unwarranted since SHAK sources nearly all its ingredients domestically.” Shake Shack had also posted disappointing second-quarter results and cut its full-year forecast.“While we remain positive on Shake Shack’s near and long-term story and would be more constructive on the shares in the event of a material pullback, we believe SHAK’s current valuation accurately reflects the company’s attractive fundamentals,” he said in a note to clients.— Pia SinghMarket turmoil could only arise this summer from a bigger shock that policy can’t fix, Deutsche Bank saysDeutsche Bank sees a lower likelihood of a summer crisis arising this year.“In the current climate, as long as markets believe that policymakers are willing and able to adjust in response to turmoil, then that in itself should limit the extent to which markets can sell off aggressively,” wrote strategist Henry Allen. “That means for a summer crisis to prove longer-lasting, and for the current resilience to end, it would take something that affects the macro fundamentals, but policymakers can’t easily fix.”Several factors that could trigger turmoil this summer include U.S. tariffs snapping back higher on Aug. 1, the market pricing out rate cuts due to the inflationary impact of tariffs, economic growth beginning to falter and oil prices spiking due to a geopolitical shock, the bank added.— Lisa Kailai Han Guggenheim downgrades Datadog, sees 30% downside aheadThere are headwinds ahead for Datadog, according to Guggenheim. The firm downgraded the software stock to sell from hold on Tuesday, noting that Datadog’s largest customer, OpenAI, is shifting towards more cost-efficient, in-house managed technologies.“We don’t believe this is representative of broader enterprise trends; rather, OpenAI is an outlier in terms of its hypergrowth and associated infrastructure costs that become financially impractical via third-party solutions at scale.’ analyst Howard Ma said in a note to clients.“OpenAI may have already started to move off Datadog for log management onto its internally built solution, followed by planned deprecation of other Datadog functionalities (e.g., metrics and traces),” he added. “We estimate this could result in 2H revenue risk, especially in 4Q where we’re modeling 17% growth in our plausible scenario.”Ma’s $105 price target suggests 31% downside from Monday’s close.— Michelle FoxLatest round of tariffs are not a ‘done deal,’ says Bank of AmericaKevin Lamarque | ReutersU.S. Secretary of State Marco Rubio, U.S. President Donald Trump and Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth attend a cabinet meeting at the White House in Washington, D.C., U.S., July 8, 2025.President Donald Trump’s most recent slate of tariffs are still a work in progress with more work to be done, according to Bank of America.“We don’t think the tariffs announced yesterday are a done deal. Rather, the extension of the deadline from July 9 to August 1 suggests there is still room for negotiation,” BofA economist Antonio Gabriel wrote on Tuesday. “But if the tariffs are implemented, we estimate they should add about 0.1pp to inflation and subtract a similar amount from growth.”— Brian EvansInvestor Keith Lerner reiterates bullish stance on equity marketGoing forward, investor Keith Lerner believes that the market “deserves the benefit of the doubt.”“This bull market has earned the benefit of the doubt, and even if it’s a slower trajectory higher and with some hiccups along the way, I still think the trend is one that moves up over the duration of the year,” the Truist Wealth co-chief investment officer said on CNBC’s “Squawk on the Street” Tuesday morning.Lerner pointed to strong corporate earnings as a driving force behind the market’s current resilience.— Lisa Kailai HanCopper prices hit record after Trump announces 50% tariff Copper futures hit a record high after Trump abruptly announced 50% tariffs on all imports of the metal during a White House Cabinet meeting.The copper futures contract for September jumped 10.5% to $5.8955 per pound. Shares of copper miner Freeport-McMoRan jumped more than 5% in response the president’s announcement.— Spencer KimballElon Musk doesn’t like Dan Ives’ plan to fix Tesla Elon Musk told Wedbush analyst Dan Ives to “shut up” after he laid out a plan to reign in the Tesla CEO. Ives said Tesla’s board of directors should approve a pay package that would give Musk 25% voting control of the electric vehicle maker. But the package would come with strings attached. The board would have oversight over Musk’s political activities and the CEO would be required to spend a certain amount of time at Tesla, Ives said in a post on X. In response, Musk said: “Shut up, Dan.” — Spencer KimballStocks making the biggest moves middayJustin Sullivan | Getty ImagesHershey’s milk chocolate candy bars are displayed in San Anselmo, California, on May 3, 2024.Hershey — The candy company slid more than 3% following news that Wendy’s CEO Kirk Tanner will take the helm at Hershey, effective Aug. 18.

Check out the full list here.— Fred ImbertJamie Dimon calls the U.S. tax policy changes an ‘important step’ for growthJPMorgan Chase CEO Jamie Dimon gave a positive review of the U.S. tax policy changes signed by President Trump last week to CNBC’s Leslie Picker. “The Administration and Congress took an important step by enacting long-term, internationally competitive tax policy that provides the predictability needed to support business confidence, investment and job growth,” Dimon told Picker.The “big beautiful bill” extended some of the corporate tax benefits that were implemented during Trump’s first term and set to expire at the end of this year, and the bill also changed some rules around expensing new projects. — Jesse PoundGoldman Sachs downgrades gold mining stock NewmontThe rally for mining stock Newmont is due to cool off, according to Goldman Sachs.The investment firm downgraded Newmont to neutral from buy, with analyst Hugo Nicolaci saying in a note to clients that the stock now looks fairly valued relative to the price of gold and its peers. “On our LT gold price of US$2,850/oz NEM is trading on ~0.95x NAV, or pricing ~US$2,675/oz gold (peer average ~0.95x NAV and ~US$2,775/oz),” the note said. Shares of Newmont are up more than 60% year to date.— Jesse PoundBank stocks fall following HSBC downgradeJoe Raedle | Getty ImagesCustomers use a Chase bank ATM on April 11, 2025 in Miami, Florida. Bank stocks were lower on Tuesday, after HSBC downgraded some of the bigger names on Wall Street over a “more cautious stance” on larger firms.Shares of JPMorgan Chase slipped more than 3%, alongside Bank of America. Goldman Sachs pulled back roughly 2%. HSBC analyst Saul Martinez downgraded all three stocks in a Monday note.CNBC Pro subscribers can read the full story here.— Brian EvansConsumer survey shows inflation outlook back to pre-tariff levelInflation expectations over the next year have returned to January levels, before President Donald Trump launched his global trade war that economists feared would spike prices, according to a New York Federal Reserve survey released Tuesday.The central bank’s monthly consumer survey for June showed respondents expect inflation a year from now to be running at 3% rate, the same as in January and down from the peak of 3.6% in March and April.However, respondents still expect hefty price increases for energy, rent, education and other items.— Jeff CoxTrump says there will be no extensions for Aug. 1 tariffsEvelyn Hockstein | ReutersU.S. President Donald Trump speaks to reporters aboard Air Force One en route to Joint Base Andrews, Maryland, after touring a temporary migrant detention center informally known as “Alligator Alcatraz” in Ochopee, Florida, U.S., July 1, 2025.President Donald Trump said on Truth Social that the Aug. 1 start date for the tariffs laid out in letters to countries on Monday is a firm timeline that will not change.“There has been no change to this date, and there will be no change. In other words, all money will be due and payable starting AUGUST 1, 2025 – No extensions will be granted,” the post said.— Jesse PoundTariffs raise near term risk to recent equities strength, says Wolfe ResearchPresident Donald Trump’s latest moves on tariffs could be a catalyst for stocks to lose steam in the near-term, according to Wolfe Research.“Investors seem to be dismissing the upside risk to inflation. But someone ultimately has to pay the tariffs—likely showing up in CPI, profit margins, or (realistically) a combination of both,” Wolfe Research chief economist Stephanie Roth wrote in a Tuesday note. “While we still expect the economy to hold up, this raises near-term risks to the equity rally so far and reinforces our base case that the Fed stays on hold this year given the looming inflationary impact,” she added.— Brian EvansOppenheimer remains bullish on U.S. stocks, prefers cyclical namesOppenheimer Asset Management remains bullish on U.S. equities at this time, the firm’s chief investment strategist John Stoltzfus wrote in a Monday note.Specifically, the firm prefers cyclical stocks over their more defensive counterparts. These cyclical sectors include information technology, consumer discretionary, communication services, industrials and financials.“We anticipate continued positive corporate earnings growth, a key driver of equity valuations,” Stoltzfus wrote. “Our intermediate- and longer-term outlook for the U.S. economy and the stock market remains decidedly bullish. We believe U.S. economic fundamentals remain on solid footing. As the drag of tight monetary policy eases, job growth and consumption and business fixed investment demand should continue to exhibit resilience. In addition, should the economy appear to falter, the Federal Reserve has the ability to move swiftly to cut rates further to provide economic stimulus and reinvigorate demand.”— Lisa Kailai HanStocks open little changed on TuesdayStocks were little changed to kick off Tuesday’s trading session.The S&P 500 was marginally higher.

If so, its unlikely to be enough to dampen investors enthusiasm for US equities,” Matthews said in a note to clients.However, the same may not be true for Federal Reserve officials. “It’s been clear in recent weeks that many FOMC members are not confident cutting rates until the inflationary effects of tariffs are clearer, and we doubt they’ll cut this year. That would be bad news for Treasuries given current pricing. But it might, eventually, give the dollar a boost, even if whatever is behind its apparent risk premium takes longer to fade,” Matthews said. — Jesse PoundAmazon stock rises as Prime Day kicks offThomas Fuller | Lightrocket | Getty ImagesShares of Amazon rose slightly in Tuesday’s premarket session as the e-commerce seller’s annual four-day Prime Day sales event commenced.The stock was last trading nearly 0.4% higher.Amazon’s Prime Day promotion runs from July 8 to July 11 this year.

Asia-Pacific markets swung between gains and losses Tuesday as investors assessed U.S. President Donald Trump’s latest tariff threats on 14 trading partners.Japan’s Nikkei 225 benchmark ended the day 0.26% higher at 39,688.81 while the broader Topix index moved up 0.17% to 2,816.54.In South Korea, the Kospi index increased by 1.81% to close at 3,114.95 while the small-cap Kosdaq added 0.74% to 784.24.Mainland China’s CSI 300 index advanced 0.84% to end the day at 3,998.45 while Hong Kong’s Hang Seng Index increased by 1.09% to 24,148.07.Over in Australia, the S&P/ASX 200 benchmark ended the day flat at 8,590.70 after the Reserve Bank of Australia unexpectedly stood pat on interest rates at 3.85%.Meanwhile, India’s benchmark Nifty 50 and the BSE Sensex were flat as of 1.50 p.m. Indian Standard Time.— Amala BalakrishnerLower Treasury yields are fuel for a ‘melt-up in risk assets,’ HSBC strategist saysLower yields on U.S. Treasury debt have proven the latest fuel for a “melt-up in risk assets,” and the looming tariff deadlines are “unlikely to matter much,” HSBC chief multi-asset strategist Max Kettner wrote to clients on Monday, before President Trump released letters announcing sharp tariffs on Japan, South Korea and others starting in August.Melt-up ingredients range from “the big beautiful bill, some U.S. trade deals (e.g. Vietnam, potentially), a U.S. labour market that’s been defying the doom-and-gloom calls — not only last month but in the entire second quarter” to lower Treasury yields that are “still being far away from the Danger Zone.”Possible “pain trades,” which would move against conventional wisdom and harm portfolios positioned the other way, include a stronger U.S. dollar, U.S. and global economic growth that fail to soften and flatter government bond yields in developed markets, London-based Kettner wrote.Kettner worked to dispel doubts about U.S. stocks, saying: tariffs may have an effect on corporate profits, but will be mitigated by the weaker U.S. dollar, helping large cap companies but especially megacap stocks the most; policy uncertainty is likely to dissipate relative to the second quarter; the U.S. stock market is expensive relative to the rest of the world “because it makes the most money ... compared to history, as well as compared to the largest equity markets globally on a crosssectional basis, the U.S. looks fairly valued.”— Scott SchnipperDividend growth slowed in the second quarter, S&P Dow Jones Indices foundCompanies tightened their purse strings over dividend increases in the second quarter amid worries over the economy, according to a report from S&P Dow Jones Indices.Dividend net changes – that is, increases minus decreases – for U.S. domestic common stocks rose $7.4 billion in the second quarter of this year. That compares to a $16 billion increase in the year-ago period and a $15.3 billion gain in the first quarter of 2025.“Dividend growth has continued, but is noticeably slower than had been hoped for, though it is in line with expectations given the economic certainties,” said Howard Silverblatt, senior index analyst at S&P Dow Jones Indices, in an e-mail.He added that while this uncertainty doesn’t seem to have stopped increases, it seems to have capped the size of these hikes.Silverblatt noted that dividend increases may be limited as companies take a wait-and-see approach toward global government policy that’s constantly changing and worries over employment and inflation.He also said that the third quarter is expected to start with an improvement from major banks, which have lifted their dividends in light of the Federal Reserve’s stress test results.— Darla MercadoTrump announces steep tariffs on 14 countriesCelal Gunes | Anadolu | Getty ImagesUnited States President Donald Trump walks toward the White House upon his arrival from New Jersey in Washington DC on July 6, 2025. U.S. President Donald Trump announced new tariffs on 14 countries to go into effect Aug. 1 that were more severe than investors were expecting. Those countries hit by new tariffs are Bangladesh, Bosnia and Herzegovina, Cambodia, Indonesia, Japan, Laos, Malaysia, Myanmar, Serbia, South Africa, South Korea, Thailand and Tunisia.The countries were hit with import duties that are similar to, and in some cases even higher than, what Trump first announced back in April in his so-called “reciprocal” tariffs. Japan, for example, was hit with a 25% levy that’s a little bit above the 24% rate Trump initially said in April. Malaysia was hit with a 25% tariff rate, also higher than the previous 24% level.— Sarah Min, Kevin BreuningerStock futures open lower Stock futures opened lower Monday night.
