[CALENDAR ADDITION] USTR Greer to talk on Bloomberg TV at 07:45EDT/12:45BST

Appearances by the trade representative have historically been the channel through which tariff adjustments, negotiation status with specific partners, and Section 301 or exclusion-process signals first surface, often with only partial detail before a formal notice follows. The pattern in comparable episodes is that off-the-cuff broadcast remarks move the tariff-sensitive names and the currencies of the counterparties under discussion, then get walked back, clarified, or formalised in subsequent statements. The distinction worth drawing is between commentary on existing measures, which tends to be incremental, and any hint of new actions or deadlines, which reprices faster. The follow-ons are the transcript, any matching statement from the other side of the negotiation, and whether the timing lines up with a known decision window in the trade calendar.
