US needs to 'fix' countries like India and Brazil: Lutnick amid tariff row

Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick has said that the US will have to fix countries like Brazil and India, asserting that these nations need to react correctly to America by opening their markets and refraining from actions that could harm American interests. The Trump administration has imposed 50 per cent tariffs on India, including a 25 per cent tariff on New Delhi's purchases of Russian oil, among the highest tariff rates imposed on any country in the world. "We have a bunch of countries to fix, like Switzerland, Brazil, India - these are countries that need to really react correctly to America. Open their markets, stop taking actions that harm America, and that's why we're off sides with them," Lutnick said in an interview with NewsNation. Lutnick said that these countries have to understand that if "you want to sell to the US consumers, you've got to play ball with the President of the United States." Apart from India and Brazil, Lutnick also mentioned countries like Taiwan and

Sun Pharma hit by US tariff risk, but earnings impact to remain limited

The imposition of a 100 per cent tariff by the US on imports of branded and patented pharmaceutical products starting October 1 may not significantly hurt Indian drug makers, with Sun Pharma being exposed to some headline risk but with limited earnings impact, according to analysts. Among Indian companies, only Sun Pharma has sizeable sales from patented drugs in the US (about 17 per cent of 2024-25 revenue), HSBC Global Investment Research said in a report. The US last week announced the imposition of a 100 per cent tariff on branded or patented drugs entering the United States from October 1, except for pharmaceutical companies building manufacturing plants in the US. The exemption covers projects where construction has started, including sites that have broken ground or are under construction. HSBC said Sun Pharma reported global sales of USD 1.217 billion from patented products in FY25, of which the US market accounted for about USD 1.1 billion (85-90 per cent of global sales),

US economy shows surprising 3.8% growth rate after major revision of Q2 GDP

The US economy expanded at a surprising 3.8 per cent from April through June, the government reported in a dramatic upgrade of its previous estimate of second-quarter growth. US gross domestic product the nation's output of goods and services rebounded in the spring from a 0.6 per cent first-quarter drop caused by fallout from President Donald Trump's trade wars, the Commerce Department said Thursday. The department had previously estimated second-quarter growth at 3.3 per cent. The first-quarter GDP drop, the first retreat of the US economy in three years, was mainly caused by a surge in imports which are subtracted from GDP as businesses hurried to bring in foreign goods before Trump could impose sweeping taxes on them. That trend reversed as expected in the second quarter: Imports fell at a 29.3 per cent pace, boosting April-June growth by more than 5 percentage points. Consumer spending rose at a 2.5 per cent pace, up from 0.6 per cent in the first quarter and well above the
