While markets still operate on the assumption that Trump is leveraging aggressive tariffs as a negotiating tactic aimed at securing meaningful concessions from Beijing, there is little evidence to suggest that a breakthrough is imminent. In fact, BMO notes that recent developments suggest a lengthier and more uncertain path toward any durable agreement between Washington and Beijing.
In BMO’s assessment, if the bulk of these new tariffs remain in place, the "best worst-case" scenario would be a period of stagflation—characterised by stagnant growth and sticky inflation. The more severe downside risk would be a deeper economic recession, as real consumer spending begins to falter under the weight of higher prices and diminished purchasing power.
