After the U.S.
President Donald Trump commented on trade talks with China at a campaign rally
that “China broke the deal” U.S. stock futures dropped as much as 0.7 percent.
These
comments, along with Trump stating that “they can’t do that so they will be
paying,” also caused Asia stocks to fall and the Yan to strengthen by 0.2
percent against the Dollar.
According
to Reuters, the South Kospi dropped 3.4 percent to close at 2,102.01, which is
its biggest one-day percentage loss since mid-October 2018. Also, Japan’s Topix
dropped 1.4 percent to a three-month low and Australia’s S&P/ASX 200
remained flat.
Talks
between the two countries are due to continue in Washington today. These talks
follow Trump’s threats to increase tariffs on Chinese goods as of Friday.
