a bottle of the finest stuff can set you back as much as eighty. some fear that tariffs on u.s. imports including whiskey of course will lead to price hikes. are but store owners of past us is taking the levees in his stride they're due to come into effect on friday but for him it's all about pivoting to other regions after all american whiskey isn't the only kind on offer for life might focus more on german whisky than isn't the only kind to come from the us there's rai as well but there are very good german right brands too right whiskey is really in fashion so you can get people interested in it it doesn't have to be american whiskey. since the start of june there have been growing worries about an all out trade war on june first the u.s. imposed duties of ten percent on steel and twenty five percent on aluminum from europe europe has now retaliated with tariffs designed to target u.s.

the american. treatment. strictures. instead of engaging through. positions of. twenty seventeen chinese companies spend thirteen point seven billion dollars on a corporate shopping spree in germany alone among recent transactions are the takeover of robot maker by media as well as major investments in german flagship companies like dimer and deutsche bank each of which has chinese investors holding a ten percent stake. what makes matters worse european companies don't seem to have an edge anymore as innovators the majority of businesses see their chinese counterparts at least ass or even more innovative. and in other big news today the

dow has kicked out industrial giants general electric its shares today down by a point seven percent she has been part of the dell jones industrial average for more than a century it was just recently one of the largest listed groups in the world but has recently fallen on hard. time to stalk price plummeting in the past year from twenty seven dollars to just over twelve on wednesday it's a controversial move general electric's is valued a lot higher than companies which are still included in the index thank you knight a technology and caterpillar investor say it's this disparity which makes and bad for understanding the true value of corporate america and because the index is based on share price cheney's clearly far behind top firms like the bank goldman sachs or apple they have share price is ten times higher than she signed off declining relevance perhaps but is the problem more on the side of general
