Trump Suggests Tariff Increase May End: "I Don't Want Tariffs to Keep Rising"

BlockBeats News, April 18th, President Donald Trump of the United States stated on Thursday local time that the tit-for-tat tariff escalation between the United States and China may soon come to an end. Trump, speaking at the White House about the tariff issue, said: "I don't want to continue to raise tariffs because, at a certain point, people will stop buying."

Possibly affected by this, international oil prices surged nearly 3% yesterday, and copper also rebounded significantly. This morning, the Asia-Pacific stock market reaction was also relatively positive, with good gains in the stock markets of Japan, South Korea, and Australia. (WallStreetCN)
