Update (8:53 am ET): Almost immediately after Trump sent futures higher with a series of tweets touting the possibility of a deal with Beijing, the US Trade Rep's office appeared to pour cold water on Trump's claims by publishing a notice suggesting that Washington is sticking to its guns and raise tariffs on Friday.
U.S. ISSUES NOTE ON INCREASING TARIFFS ON $200B OF CHINA GOOD
U.S. NOTICE SAYS TARIFFS ON $200B OF CHINA GOODS GO UP FRIDAY
The notice confirmed that new tariffs would take effect on the tenth of May, and caused futures to pare some gains.
Новые тарифы вступят в силу десятого мая.
Фьючерсы растут после того, как президент Трамп в среду утром написал в твиттере, что вице-премьер Лю он приедет в Вашингтон, чтобы заключить сделку.
