EU sees US tariffs breaking deal limit on €4.2 billion of goods
President Donald Trump’s new tariff program will leave about €4.2 billion ($5 billion) of European Union exports facing levies above the 15% ceiling agreed in the EU-US trade accord. Trump’s new policy will increase duties above the maximum allowed level on European exports including cheese, butter, some agricultural products as well as several plastics, textiles and chemicals, according to people familiar with the EU’s assessment of the rates.

From investinglive.com|Feb 25, 2026|3 commentsBank of Japan Governor Kazuo Ueda reinforced the central bank’s tightening bias, signalling that further rate hikes remain likely if incoming data strengthen confidence in the Bank’s economic and inflation forecasts. In comments reported by Yomiuri, Ueda said the BoJ’s “basic stance” is to continue raising interest rates if the probability of its growth and price projections materialising increases. While underlying inflation has yet to fully reach the 2% target, policy will be guided to ensure it converges sustainably to around that level without overshooting on a persistent basis. Ueda added that the Bank does not believe it is behind the curve in addressing the risk of excessive inflation, and said there has been no change since January to the projected timing for achieving the price target. He expects inflation to re-accelerate following the current slowdown. Importantly, Ueda flagged upside risks. If the outcome of the spring wage negotiations proves stronger than expected and firms pass higher labour costs through to prices more swiftly, the 2% inflation target could be achieved sooner than currently projected — a comment that tilts hawkish at the margin. Looking ahead, Ueda noted that while the April Tankan survey will be an important input, the BoJ is conducting multiple surveys and does not need to wait for the Tankan release to have sufficient data. With policy meetings scheduled for March and April, he said the Bank will scrutinise all available information and reach a decision, responding to growing market speculation that a rate hike could come as early as April.
