Asian equities are poised for a positive open as traders brush off President Donald Trump's latest tariff threats as bargaining tactics that are unlikely to derail global trade. Stock-index futures for Japan, Hong Kong and Australia pointed to a higher open in early Asian trading. The S&P 500 eked out a gain Monday as Trump indicated he's open to trade talks, though still insisted his new tariff rates are "the deals." Contracts for the S&P 500 and the Nasdaq edged lower and Bitcoin retreated from its record high. We get some market perspective from Carol Schleif, Chief Market Strategist at BMO Private Wealth.

Plus - Mizuho Financial Group CEO Masahiro Kihara is signaling that he is confident the Japanese lender can meet its long-term target of about ¥1 trillion - or $6.8 billion - in annual profit even as trade wars threaten to stifle growth. He speaks with Bloomberg's Francine Lacqua in London.

Meantime, the second quarter earnings season is also due to begin this week, with Wall Street expecting the weakest reporting season since mid-2023. We speak to Roderick von Lipsey, managing director, UBS Private Wealth Management.

Plus - for more insight on President Trump's latest tariff moves and a look at the week ahead in Asia, we speak to Mary Nicola, Bloomberg MLIV Strategist in Singapore.
