all countries accused of trying to steal u.s. technology. against a wall street for us with more on this so yes the word from the treasury is that they're not singling out china but are investors buying that explanation. well even if they're buying this explanation that doesn't necessarily make things better right because not just china but also other markets and potential investors that would be limited to the you or third tech industry so one idea circulating is on one side investments into the u.s. knology industry might be limited and on the other side also exports off to get out of the united states could be controlled more or also restricted we did see quite a reaction here on wall street good chips losing by more than three hundred points

nine out of the past ten trading days actually blue chips lost value and especially technology shares gutted hard here at the beginning of the new week well despite strong opposition from investors and from abroad it seems approval of trump's economic policies at home is grow. well actually donald trump for his economic policy receive the highest approval rate since he started office and if you're a look at the poll that was published by the n.b.c. fifty four percent of the participants said the economy isn't good or even excellent shape the highest reading that we've got on this poll it's insisted about ten years ago for example the unemployment rate is almost at the lowest level in almost fifty years the consumer sentiment remains on an elevated basis then when it
