The US is set to implement additional tariffs on Chinese goods totalling $34 billion as of the 6th of July.
China has come out saying they are “fully prepared” for a trade war with the US, with little sign of an end to mounting tensions. As a result, global equity stocks closed weaker yesterday as fears over a trade war continue to do the rounds.
Don’t expect too much volatility today as US markets will be closed for Independence day. It quite possibly could be a holiday in England as well following the Poms narrow victory over Colombia last night!
