US President Trump has had a bit of a nasty mood swing (maybe a nasty golf swing caused it).
He has been on his phone with some angry tweets:
- Pres. Trump: China tariffs will go up to 25% on $200B of goods on Friday
- ICYMI - US President Trump threatens higher tariffs on Chinese goods
US equity futures trading reopened for the week …. ugly:
Like I said above, maybe he had a bad round on the golf course, or maybe its this:
- North Korea has fired off a "strike drill"of missiles
- NK state media says leader Kim Jong-un oversaw the tests, in order to "increase the combat ability" of NK
- "A number of short-range projectiles" also fired from the Hodo peninsula into the Sea of Japan on Saturday
The tests seem to have caught tariff man off guard, Trump tweeted on Saturday that he believed Kim would not jeopardise better relations …
- Kim "knows that I am with him & does not want to break his promise to me. Deal will happen!" I believe that Kim Jong-Un fully realises the great economic potential of North Korea and will do nothing to interfere or end it"
Don, hate to break it to you, but he's just not that into you
