#TradeWarEases

The US-China trade war has eased as both countries agreed to slash tariffs on each other's goods for 90 days in a landmark trade deal. Here's a breakdown of the agreement ¹ ²:

- *US Tariffs on Chinese Goods*: Reduced from 145% to 30%

- *Chinese Tariffs on US Goods*: Cut from 125% to 10%

This development comes after a meeting between US and Chinese officials in Geneva, Switzerland, where they discussed sustainable economic and trade relations. Both countries aim to establish a mechanism for continued discussions on economic and trade relations, potentially leading to a long-term mutually beneficial agreement.

The agreement has positively impacted financial markets, with:

S&P 500 Futures*: Rising 1.1-1.4%

Nasdaq Futures: Increasing 1.4-1.9%

US Dollar and Chinese Yuan..Valuing up against the euro and Japanese yen

This temporary tariff reduction is seen as a significant step in reducing tensions between the world's two largest economies. However, an final agreement is yet to be confirmed.
