YouTube Description

as posted by the channel

Shelagh Fogarty is joined by economic experts to break down how Trump's tariffs will impact business in the UK and globally.

Trump has remained defiant in the face of plummeting global stock markets as the US President - as the US President's controversial tariffs came into effect on Wednesday.

President Trump has refused to 'pause' tariffs despite plummeting markets around the world, instead announcing increased tariffs of 104 per cent on Chinese goods late on Tuesday.

Markets around the world jittered ahead of the Wednesday morning bell, with the Chinese yuan hovering just above the lowest level seen since 2007 - as Beijing's currency depreciated further.

The US President was seen to declare "I know what the hell I'm doing!" on Tuesday night, making the comments during a defiant speech at the National Republican Congressional Committee dinner in Washington.
