#TradeWarEases The truce on tariffs between the United States and China brings a sigh of relief to big tech. From Apple to Amazon, the American giants of the web are exposed to the Chinese market where they produce, buy, and sell many of their products or components. Consequently, the easing of relations and the agreement on tariff cuts, reached after the talks on May 10-11 in Geneva, can only be pleasing to Silicon Valley. On the stock market, shares of Apple & co are already celebrating: in pre-market trading on May 12, Apple gains about 3% like Alphabet (class A), while Amazon's jump is nearly 6%. Tesla also raises its head with a surge of over 8% (data as of 9:30 AM on May 12).
