Thursday’s headlines are, of course, dominated by yesterday’s news that the US will introduce a baseline 10% tariff on the world, including the UK and other countries, and are facing far higher tariffs, including the EU being hit with a 20% levy.
The headlines are in general agreement that the UK being hit with the baseline tariff is far less severe than what was expected, and there could be some wiggle room as the tariffs don’t come into effect on Saturday.
