Trump Tariffs: 'China Also Wants To Make A Deal'
Ahead of the market open, President Trump on Truth Social touted a "great call" with the acting president of South Korea on tariffs and other issues. In addition, Trump said that "China also wants to make a deal, badly, but they don't know how to get it started. We are waiting for their call."

Early Tuesday, U.S. Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent said on CNBC that China's escalation was a "big mistake." His comments come in response to China's early morning statement that it would "fight to the end" against Trump's tariffs and implied that more retaliatory tariffs could be coming.

On Monday, President Trump threatened an additional 50% tariff on China, posting on Truth Social.

"Therefore, if China does not withdraw its 34% increase above their already long-term trading abuses by tomorrow, April 8th, 2025, the United States will impose ADDITIONAL Tariffs on China of 50%, effective April 9th," he said.

Trump went on to say: "Additionally, all talks with China concerning their requested meetings with us will be terminated! Negotiations with other countries, which have also requested meetings, will begin taking place immediately."

IPhone maker Apple rebounded 3.7% Tuesday morning. Its shares sold off another 3.7% Monday, closing at their lowest level since May.

Tesla stock jumped 5.5% Tuesday, looking to recover from Monday's 2.6% drop. Shares of the Elon Musk-led company are around 52% off their record high of 488.54, reached on Dec. 18.

Lastly, Nvidia stock rallied 7.4% in Tuesday's morning trading, as the artificial intelligence giant looked to add to Monday's upside reversal.

Dow Jones, Major Indexes Slash Losses
Blue chips on the Dow Jones Industrial Average Monday declined 0.9%, or 349 points, while the S&P 500 fell 0.2% and the Nasdaq edged higher. All three ended well off their session lows.

(Bloomberg) – Singapore’s People’s Action Party, which has been in power for the past 60 years, could secure at least 40% of votes if a general election were held tomorrow, according to a YouGov survey.

About 12% of respondents said they would pick Workers’ Party, the leading opposition group. The Singapore People’s Party, Singapore Democratic Party, National Solidarity Party and Progress Singapore Party would each garner 1% of the votes, according to the poll conducted from March 25 to April 1 and released on Tuesday.

Of the 1,845 Singaporeans polled, 29% would rather not disclose their preference and another 13% were undecided on their party of choice.
 
Trump has an Ace in his cabinet - Scott Bessent, who was part of Soros Team which broke the Bank of England in the 90s. He will break CCP’s PBOC soon.
