TODAY’S FACTORS AND EVENTS
Asian markets gained in early trading Monday, after fears of a trade war between the U.S. and China receded following weekend developments.
On Sunday morning, U.S. Treasury Secretary Steve Mnuchin said the Trump administration would delay implementing tariffs on Chinese goods, and would “put the trade war on hold” while details of a trade deal are worked out. U.S. trade representative Robert Lighthizer later said the U.S. may still impose tariffs. On Saturday, after high-level deliberations in Washington, China agreed to buy more U.S. goods, though its negotiators refused to put a dollar amount on it.
