HONG KONG: Chinese stocks listed in Hong Kong will come under renewed pressure when they resume trading today following a three-session break, after US President Donald Trump fired the first salvo of his tariff war.
Fears of rising levies had already helped push the MSCI China Index into a bear market last month. Last Saturday, Trump ordered general tariffs of 25% on Canada and Mexico and 10% on China, to come into effect tomorrow, while promising a similar move later for the European Union.
