Crypto Market Speculation Rises on Donald Trump’s “Big” Trade Deal
US President Donald Trump stated that he would be announcing a “big” tariff deal with a “highly respected country” on Thursday morning 10:00 AM. Trump wrote:
“Big News Conference tomorrow morning at 10:00 A.M., The Oval Office, concerning a MAJOR TRADE DEAL WITH REPRESENTATIVES OF A BIG, AND HIGHLY RESPECTED, COUNTRY. THE FIRST OF MANY!!!”

What to Expect From Trump Trade Talks?
The New York Times reports, citing three sources familiar with the matter, that the United States is set to enter into a trade deal with the United Kingdom.
Timothy C. Brightbill, an international trade attorney at Wiley Rein, noted that the announcement is likely an agreement to begin negotiations, outlining a framework of issues to be addressed in the coming months.
He added: “We suspect that tariff rates, nontariff barriers and digital trade are all on the list — and there are difficult issues to address on all of these.”
