Lionel Laurent recommendations for EU:
"A better starting point would be to shore up support for the #EU’s never-before-used “anti-coercion instrument,” which was devised during the first #Trump administration as a way to resist economic bullying from the likes of China or the US. This would allow for a list of counter measures broader than #tariffs on goods, such as restricting intellectual-property rights, foreign direct investment and access to public procurement."

The world’s most widely followed #StockMarket benchmark slid into a correction on Thurs, a drop that underscores how the 2-yr-long bull market [#Bidenomics] is running out of steam in the early days of the #Trump admin.
The move stems from investors’ growing pessimism about the whipsawing policy pronouncements from Trump over the past few weeks. On-again, off-again #tariffs & #MassLayoffs of #FederalWorkers have fomented unease on #WallStreet.
