1
00:00:05,160 --> 00:00:06,560
Speaker 1: This is what the flux.

2
00:00:06,640 --> 00:00:09,400
Speaker 2: I'm Brett and I'm Justin and it's Monday the seventh.

3
00:00:09,080 --> 00:00:12,640
Speaker 1: Today, Pril Juzzy boy, it is tariff, central, left, right

4
00:00:12,720 --> 00:00:16,119
Speaker 1: and the center. Now companies and investors are cleaning up

5
00:00:16,120 --> 00:00:18,840
Speaker 1: the mess from Liberation Day. In fact, last week, nearly

6
00:00:18,880 --> 00:00:21,560
Speaker 1: four trillion dollars was wiped from the NASDAQ one hundreds

7
00:00:21,560 --> 00:00:23,200
Speaker 1: and that's the biggest drop since twenty twenty.

8
00:00:23,320 --> 00:00:25,520
Speaker 2: We know what happened then, b Man Fox am March

9
00:00:25,560 --> 00:00:28,160
Speaker 2: on the ASEX was not a pretty month. It dropped

10
00:00:28,160 --> 00:00:30,680
Speaker 2: more than four percent, but there were still four companies

11
00:00:30,720 --> 00:00:33,080
Speaker 2: that saw their share price jump more than ten percent.

12
00:00:33,240 --> 00:00:36,319
Speaker 2: And interestingly, there is one particular industry that dominated. We've

13
00:00:36,320 --> 00:00:38,320
Speaker 2: got it all covered in the Flux at this month,

14
00:00:38,360 --> 00:00:40,720
Speaker 2: So if you want to learn which industry outperform the rest,

15
00:00:40,760 --> 00:00:42,440
Speaker 2: make sure to check out and the Fox out.

16
00:00:42,280 --> 00:00:45,199
Speaker 1: Three spectacular stories today, Juzzy boy, let's do it for

17
00:00:45,440 --> 00:00:49,559
Speaker 1: our first. The owner of KFC stores in Australia, Collins Foods,

18
00:00:49,640 --> 00:00:52,360
Speaker 1: has seen it shares drop nearly three percent, as Trump's

19
00:00:52,400 --> 00:00:55,560
Speaker 1: tariffs might result in more beef eaters in Australia.

20
00:00:56,600 --> 00:00:59,040
Speaker 2: US politics actually changing how we pick up fast food

21
00:00:59,040 --> 00:01:00,440
Speaker 2: meals now b man anymore?

22
00:01:00,520 --> 00:01:03,880
Speaker 1: Well, Colin's Foods is the ASX listed restaurant operator that

23
00:01:03,960 --> 00:01:06,160
Speaker 1: runs KFC and Taco Bell restaurants.

24
00:01:06,160 --> 00:01:07,959
Speaker 2: We'd be talking more than two hundred and seventy five

25
00:01:08,000 --> 00:01:11,240
Speaker 2: kfsa's in Australia, sixteen in Germany, fifty six in the Netherlands.

26
00:01:11,360 --> 00:01:14,119
Speaker 1: Don't you dare forget those twenty seven Taco bells. Juzzy

27
00:01:14,120 --> 00:01:15,040
Speaker 1: Boy irrelevant?

28
00:01:15,120 --> 00:01:17,279
Speaker 2: Now me man. We know that Donald J. Trump whacked

29
00:01:17,319 --> 00:01:21,000
Speaker 2: a ten percent tariff on Australian goods, including beef exports,

30
00:01:21,120 --> 00:01:23,560
Speaker 2: and now the share price of Colin's Foods has dropped

31
00:01:23,560 --> 00:01:26,600
Speaker 2: nearly three percent. Interesting. Colin's Foods does chickens? How does

32
00:01:26,600 --> 00:01:27,200
Speaker 2: that wear well?

33
00:01:27,200 --> 00:01:30,080
Speaker 1: With Australian beef looking likely to become more expensive in

34
00:01:30,160 --> 00:01:33,800
Speaker 1: the US, Australian beef producers are looking likely to sell

35
00:01:33,920 --> 00:01:37,440
Speaker 1: beef domestically instead, and at more competitive prices.

36
00:01:37,520 --> 00:01:40,040
Speaker 2: Think two for one whoppers two dollars quarter pounders. It

37
00:01:40,200 --> 00:01:42,360
Speaker 2: is a burger bonanza.

38
00:01:41,720 --> 00:01:44,720
Speaker 1: And Juzzy Boy this aimed fingerlicking good use for Colin's

39
00:01:44,760 --> 00:01:45,680
Speaker 1: Foods investors.

40
00:01:45,800 --> 00:01:48,000
Speaker 2: No, they're more than a little worried about a price

41
00:01:48,040 --> 00:01:50,240
Speaker 2: war between fried chicken and burger.

42
00:01:50,000 --> 00:01:52,360
Speaker 1: Chains, and this could hurt the profit margins of fried

43
00:01:52,440 --> 00:01:53,800
Speaker 1: chicken big time.

44
00:01:54,000 --> 00:01:55,720
Speaker 2: Yep, So what is the key leading here?

45
00:01:55,800 --> 00:02:00,400
Speaker 1: When a major export destination becomes less attractive, supply often

46
00:02:00,440 --> 00:02:02,360
Speaker 1: shifts back to a domestic market.

47
00:02:02,400 --> 00:02:04,960
Speaker 2: Get this, bee Man. In twenty twenty four alone, nearly

48
00:02:05,000 --> 00:02:08,359
Speaker 2: thirty percent of Australian beef exports were headed to the US.

49
00:02:08,320 --> 00:02:10,639
Speaker 1: And with a ten percent tariff on these exports, it

50
00:02:10,680 --> 00:02:13,320
Speaker 1: could lead to a sharp reduction in demand from the

51
00:02:13,440 --> 00:02:13,919
Speaker 1: US and.

52
00:02:13,880 --> 00:02:18,040
Speaker 2: A sharp reduction in the profit margin for Australian beef producers. Ultimately,

53
00:02:18,160 --> 00:02:20,680
Speaker 2: leading beef produces selling it cheaper locally.

54
00:02:20,840 --> 00:02:23,880
Speaker 1: Now, that's a win for burger chains like McDonald's and

55
00:02:23,960 --> 00:02:27,480
Speaker 1: Hungry Jacks, which may benefit from lower beef costs.

56
00:02:27,080 --> 00:02:29,880
Speaker 2: But for chicken centric businesses like Collins Foods, it's a

57
00:02:29,960 --> 00:02:30,800
Speaker 2: different story.

58
00:02:30,880 --> 00:02:34,360
Speaker 1: You see, approximately ninety five percent of Australia's chicken is

59
00:02:34,400 --> 00:02:36,360
Speaker 1: consumed domestically.

60
00:02:35,840 --> 00:02:39,280
Speaker 2: So the poultry industry's cost structures are already set up

61
00:02:39,280 --> 00:02:40,679
Speaker 2: for the Australian market.

62
00:02:40,400 --> 00:02:42,520
Speaker 1: And they aren't set up for a trade war against

63
00:02:42,520 --> 00:02:44,280
Speaker 1: the big producers of beef.

64
00:02:44,360 --> 00:02:46,680
Speaker 2: So be Man. That means a switch from a Zingerberger

65
00:02:46,720 --> 00:02:49,840
Speaker 2: to a quarter pounder burger might become even more appealing.

66
00:02:50,040 --> 00:02:53,160
Speaker 1: For our second story, Nike has seen at share price

67
00:02:53,240 --> 00:02:57,520
Speaker 1: plummet after Donald Trump's new tariff on Vietnamese imports.

68
00:02:57,720 --> 00:03:00,480
Speaker 2: Jeez, just as Nike was limping already, be Man not

69
00:03:00,680 --> 00:03:02,200
Speaker 2: what they need right now, So tell me more.

70
00:03:02,240 --> 00:03:05,440
Speaker 1: Well, Josey boy, we know that DJT whacked tariffs on

71
00:03:05,480 --> 00:03:08,200
Speaker 1: more than ninety countries around the world on Thursday.

72
00:03:08,320 --> 00:03:09,800
Speaker 2: Kind of felt like he was picking names out of

73
00:03:09,800 --> 00:03:11,079
Speaker 2: a hat with his eyes closed.

74
00:03:11,320 --> 00:03:13,480
Speaker 1: Some countries, like Australia in the UK were hit with

75
00:03:13,600 --> 00:03:15,760
Speaker 1: ten percent standard tariffs.

76
00:03:15,360 --> 00:03:18,600
Speaker 2: While other countries were hit with much bigger tariffs, including Vietnam,

77
00:03:18,680 --> 00:03:21,200
Speaker 2: which was whacked with a forty six percent of tariff.

78
00:03:21,240 --> 00:03:23,320
Speaker 1: But now, Josey boy, Nike has seen its share price

79
00:03:23,360 --> 00:03:25,520
Speaker 1: tumble six percent after this big news.

80
00:03:25,600 --> 00:03:28,280
Speaker 2: That's because Nike produces fifty percent of a choose and

81
00:03:28,320 --> 00:03:32,160
Speaker 2: twenty eight percent of its apparel in you guessed, Vietnam.

82
00:03:31,840 --> 00:03:34,480
Speaker 1: And given this monstrous tariff, Nike needs to find a

83
00:03:34,480 --> 00:03:37,120
Speaker 1: way to bring its goods into the US at a

84
00:03:37,120 --> 00:03:38,600
Speaker 1: reasonable price and be man.

85
00:03:38,720 --> 00:03:41,960
Speaker 2: This continues from Nike's rocky March as well, where they

86
00:03:41,960 --> 00:03:44,080
Speaker 2: saw a twenty percent dip in their share price.

87
00:03:44,240 --> 00:03:46,480
Speaker 1: Guess it goes to show you you just got to

88
00:03:46,520 --> 00:03:48,840
Speaker 1: spread the love when it comes to manufacturing.

89
00:03:49,160 --> 00:03:50,600
Speaker 2: So what is the key learning here?

90
00:03:50,640 --> 00:03:53,960
Speaker 1: When companies rely heavily on one country for production, any

91
00:03:53,960 --> 00:03:56,400
Speaker 1: disruption can trigger big financial consequences.

92
00:03:56,400 --> 00:03:58,760
Speaker 2: It might be tariffs, it might be political tension. It

93
00:03:58,840 --> 00:04:00,920
Speaker 2: might even be the risk of an actual disaster in

94
00:04:00,960 --> 00:04:01,480
Speaker 2: that country.

95
00:04:01,520 --> 00:04:03,680
Speaker 1: And the irony is that Nike moved a lot of

96
00:04:03,720 --> 00:04:06,480
Speaker 1: its production to Vietnam during Trump's first presidency.

97
00:04:06,560 --> 00:04:09,120
Speaker 2: That was when trade tensions with China were heating up.

98
00:04:09,200 --> 00:04:11,160
Speaker 1: At the time, it was seen as a smart hedge

99
00:04:11,240 --> 00:04:13,000
Speaker 1: against relying too much on China.

100
00:04:13,080 --> 00:04:16,600
Speaker 2: But Beman, sometimes even friendly trading partners like Vietnam can

101
00:04:16,640 --> 00:04:19,280
Speaker 2: find themselves on the receiving end of economic pressure.

102
00:04:19,400 --> 00:04:22,800
Speaker 1: Ultimately, companies can diversify their supply chain to reduce their risk.

103
00:04:22,920 --> 00:04:26,680
Speaker 2: That means spreading production across multiple countries and even more regions.

104
00:04:26,720 --> 00:04:30,080
Speaker 1: And Jugie Boy Nike ain't the only clothing company that

105
00:04:30,240 --> 00:04:31,800
Speaker 1: invested big time in Vietnam.

106
00:04:31,920 --> 00:04:35,040
Speaker 2: Now Addedas also produces nearly forty percent of its footwear

107
00:04:35,080 --> 00:04:37,840
Speaker 2: in Vietnam. But the man Nike's breathing a small sigh

108
00:04:37,839 --> 00:04:40,560
Speaker 2: of relief after Trump claimed he had a constructive call

109
00:04:40,600 --> 00:04:42,840
Speaker 2: with Vietnam, so maybe it won't hit them as hard

110
00:04:42,839 --> 00:04:45,840
Speaker 2: as they thought. Neil for our third and final story,

111
00:04:45,960 --> 00:04:48,080
Speaker 2: Apple has become one of the biggest losers of the

112
00:04:48,120 --> 00:04:52,520
Speaker 2: global tariffs, with its largest one day valuation wipeout on record.

113
00:04:52,600 --> 00:04:55,400
Speaker 1: Apple shehare Price just experienced the same sinking feeling that

114
00:04:55,480 --> 00:04:57,400
Speaker 1: I feel when I dropped my iPhone face down on

115
00:04:57,440 --> 00:04:59,680
Speaker 1: the floor, A very scary moment, Juzzi Boy, So tell

116
00:04:59,720 --> 00:05:00,000
Speaker 1: me more.

117
00:05:00,040 --> 00:05:02,679
Speaker 2: Okay, So we know Apple as the world's most valuable company.

118
00:05:02,720 --> 00:05:05,800
Speaker 1: We're talking hardware like iPhone and iPad, wearables like the

119
00:05:05,839 --> 00:05:06,839
Speaker 1: Apple Watch.

120
00:05:06,640 --> 00:05:09,440
Speaker 2: And software like Yicloud and even Apple TV Plus.

121
00:05:09,440 --> 00:05:12,360
Speaker 1: In fact, Jazzy Boy, Apple's iPhone division alone is big

122
00:05:12,440 --> 00:05:15,200
Speaker 1: enough to rank in the Fortune five hundred's top thirty companies.

123
00:05:15,240 --> 00:05:18,120
Speaker 2: Wow, but now, b Man, Apple's lost over three hundred

124
00:05:18,200 --> 00:05:20,360
Speaker 2: billion US dollars in market value, and.

125
00:05:20,320 --> 00:05:22,120
Speaker 1: That's the biggest one day drop in history.

126
00:05:22,160 --> 00:05:23,920
Speaker 2: I'm assuming you're going to drop the big T word

127
00:05:23,960 --> 00:05:25,480
Speaker 2: for the reason, b Man, correct.

128
00:05:25,200 --> 00:05:27,960
Speaker 1: A mundo, Juzzy Boy. Trump has announced a thirty four

129
00:05:27,960 --> 00:05:31,360
Speaker 1: percent tariff on Chinese imports as part of Liberation Day

130
00:05:31,480 --> 00:05:31,920
Speaker 1: and while.

131
00:05:31,800 --> 00:05:34,640
Speaker 2: Apple loves to say it's products are designed in California,

132
00:05:34,680 --> 00:05:36,679
Speaker 2: the assembly actually happens in China.

133
00:05:36,800 --> 00:05:39,479
Speaker 1: As a result, Apple was hit hard by this tariff.

134
00:05:39,480 --> 00:05:41,880
Speaker 2: In fact, did share price drop more than nine percent.

135
00:05:42,040 --> 00:05:45,040
Speaker 1: And while Apple's currently in the pain cave right now,

136
00:05:45,160 --> 00:05:48,440
Speaker 1: the ripple effect might hit consumers and competitors next.

137
00:05:48,560 --> 00:05:50,200
Speaker 2: Yep. So what is the key learning here?

138
00:05:50,320 --> 00:05:53,560
Speaker 1: Tariffs might start as a tax on imports, but they

139
00:05:53,680 --> 00:05:55,840
Speaker 1: end up as a tax on consumers.

140
00:05:55,880 --> 00:05:58,560
Speaker 2: You see, b man, When tariffs is slapt on imported goods,

141
00:05:58,640 --> 00:06:00,120
Speaker 2: businesses face high costs.

142
00:06:00,160 --> 00:06:02,720
Speaker 1: And let me tell you one thing, juzyboy, businesses don't

143
00:06:02,800 --> 00:06:04,479
Speaker 1: just happily absorb.

144
00:06:04,200 --> 00:06:06,800
Speaker 2: The hitt No, no, no, they raised their prices.

145
00:06:06,960 --> 00:06:10,320
Speaker 1: We'd be talking everything from phones and electronics to food

146
00:06:10,520 --> 00:06:12,240
Speaker 1: and household items.

147
00:06:11,839 --> 00:06:14,960
Speaker 2: And they man at tariffs tend to make everything more expensive.

148
00:06:15,080 --> 00:06:17,960
Speaker 1: In fact, take the twenty eighteen US China trade war.

149
00:06:18,240 --> 00:06:20,880
Speaker 2: During this period, the US impoves tariffs on a broad

150
00:06:21,000 --> 00:06:22,880
Speaker 2: range of Chinese imports.

151
00:06:22,440 --> 00:06:24,680
Speaker 1: And studies by the Fed Reserve Bank of New York

152
00:06:24,760 --> 00:06:27,560
Speaker 1: they actually showed that these tariffs were largely passed on

153
00:06:27,760 --> 00:06:28,440
Speaker 1: to consumers.

154
00:06:28,680 --> 00:06:31,520
Speaker 2: They estimated that by May twenty nineteen, these tariffs were

155
00:06:31,520 --> 00:06:34,520
Speaker 2: costing the average American household more than four hundred US

156
00:06:34,560 --> 00:06:35,360
Speaker 2: dollars per year.

157
00:06:35,320 --> 00:06:38,400
Speaker 1: And jugeboy, those tariffs were nothing compared to the Liberation

158
00:06:38,480 --> 00:06:39,160
Speaker 1: Day tariffs.

159
00:06:39,400 --> 00:06:43,080
Speaker 2: Fox Am, there was one big industry that absolutely smashed

160
00:06:43,120 --> 00:06:45,840
Speaker 2: the markets in March on the ASX and got many others.

161
00:06:45,920 --> 00:06:47,880
