Show Notes

President Trump triggers a trade war which sends the dollar soaring and pushed Asian equities into the red. Mexico and Canada are hit with 25 per cent while Chinese goods are subject to a 10 per cent surcharge on existing tariffs. Trump has threatened that the EU could be targeted next. Both Canada and Mexico have vowed to retaliate. In M&A news, Italy’s Unicredit has disclosed a new stake in the country’s largest insurer, Generali, but has denied any strategic interest behind the move. German lender Commerzbank posts a record FY pre-tax profits while fending off interest from Unicredit.
