My Trade Secrets today, INCREDIBLY not mainly about tariffs. The Vatican wants a big round of poor-country debt relief during the 2025 Jubilee year, as in the previous Jubilee in 2000. But indebted EMs have fortuitously benefited from Trump's bizarre policies & weak dollar. First 300 clicks free. [The papal call for debt relief...](https://on.ft.com/43nbbsn )

My Trade Secrets today. The US is in talking/retreat mode, but will it still try to use leverage over China, the UK and others?
