Mainecat Posted May 5, 2019 Share Posted May 5, 2019 Trump says he will increase tariffs on Chinese goods on Friday as he complains about pace of talks Last edited Sun May 5, 2019, 01:22 PM - Edit history (1) Source: Washington Post President Trump said on Sunday that he will increase tariffs on Chinese imports on Friday, unexpectedly setting what appears to be a new deadline to produce a comprehensive deal or trigger an escalation of the U.S.-China trade war. Just days before Chinese negotiators are scheduled to arrive in Washington, the president threatened to increase existing tariffs on $200 billion worth of Chinese goods to 25 percent from 10 percent and levy a new 25 percent fee on all remaining Chinese imports. In a pair of tweets, Trump accused China of trying to “renegotiate” terms of an agreement that negotiators have been racing to finish for the past five months. Chinese Vice Premier Liu He is scheduled to arrive in Washington on May 8 for what had been billed as potentially the concluding rounds of bargaining. U.S. officials have said they hoped to wrap up a sweeping deal soon, but Trump’s abrupt intervention adds a volatile new element to the end game. “The Trade Deal with China continues, but too slowly, as they attempt to renegotiate. No!” the president tweeted shortly after noon on Sunday. The office of the U.S. Trade Representative, Robert E. Lighthizer, had no immediate response to a request for comment.

Guest Posted May 6, 2019 Share Posted May 6, 2019 OK, everybody. Ask yourself, who do you PERSONALLY KNOW that has made a lot of money in the market!! How long were they invested? How much TOTAL PROFIT did they make? Did they have any problem with the crash of 2008, or the big drop we had a while ago? Did they have ANY PROBLEM when they lost 45% of their portfolio...……...OVERNIGHT!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
