‘Severe’ Trade War Fallout, S&P 500 Correction & Putin Wants Trump Talks

Your morning briefing, the business news you need in just 15 minutes.
On today's podcast:


(1) European Central Bank President Christine Lagarde warned that an escalation of disputes over trade levies kicked off by US President Donald Trump may have a detrimental effect on the world economy.


(2) President Donald Trump threatened to impose a 200% tariff on wine, champagne and other alcoholic beverages from France and elsewhere in the European Union, the latest escalation in a growing transatlantic trade war.


(3) China stands to gain from the ongoing trade wars between the US and its allies, the European Union’s foreign policy chief Kaja Kallas said in an interview with Bloomberg Television.


(4) Tariff worries rattled Wall Street again Thursday, pushing the S&P 500 into a correction that left it at the lowest in six months.


(5) Senate Democratic leader Chuck Schumer had two choices as the clock ticked down to the government funding deadline: drop his threat to block the Republican bill or force a disruptive March 15 shutdown.


(6) More than half of UK Prime Minister Keir Starmer’s cabinet have urged his chancellor, Rachel Reeves, to rethink her plans to scale back welfare and spending, in an extraordinary sign of growing concern within the governing Labour Party over the scale of looming cuts.


(7) Russian President Vladimir Putin said he wants to discuss a proposed ceasefire in Ukraine with his US counterpart Donald Trump, though he warned that any truce should lead to a long-term resolution of the war.
