'Worst offenders' tariffs take effect

from Squawk Box Europe Express

President Trump’s tariffs kick in for the so-called ‘worst offenders’ with the minimum rate on certain Chinese goods hitting 104 per cent. Trump says the U.S. remains resolute. Asian equities are firmly in the red. European markets and Wall Street are both braced for more heavy sell-offs. U.S. Treasury yields also spike. The tariffs feud between Elon Musk and President Trump’s top trade advisor Peter Navarro intensifies following disagreement over Tesla’s auto assembly practices. Musk calls Navarro ‘dumber than a sack of bricks’. In Germany, the CDU/CSU and SPD are reportedly close to a coalition deal following 13 hours of negotiations.
