China Announces 84% Tariffs on US Goods

China unveiled retaliatory tariffs of 84% on imports of US goods on Wednesday, matching additional tariffs imposed by US President Donald Trump earlier in the day and further inflaming a trade war between the world's two biggest economies.

Comments

"This is getting so ridiculous that it's hard to believe it's actually happening between the two largest economies that make up almost $50 trillion of global GDP, almost half of the world " let alone a tariff war against the whole world," Peter Boockvar, chief investment officer of Bleakley Financial Group, wrote in a research note."

When you have a ridiculous Pres, expect ridiculous results.
