finding out their differences off the monks of tariffs and threats u.s. president trump and european commission president juncus seem to agree to work towards free trade across the atlantic analysts say when it comes to a deal the devil remains in the details. also coming out the biggest fanfare free traders had in months the works on it wraps up with the leaders of brazil russia india china and south africa all vowing to fight protectionism. and facebook makes history again with the biggest ever one day stock loss in u.s. market history. this is your business update i'm headed on frame but you could join me it's not quite a deal yet more like a truce but there's still a sense of relief in europe after u.s. president donald trump and european commission president. agreed to try to take the heat out of the transatlantic trade around the german economy misstating the talks

as a breakthrough that could avoid a trade war and save millions of jobs the french government adopted a more cautious tone saying any deal must be limited and to benefit both sides. to victory lap has begun in the farm state of iowa u.s. president donald trump celebrated his new trade deal. i mean basically we opened up europe and that's going to be a great thing for europe and it's really going to be a great thing for us is going to be a really great thing for farmers. before trump and younger appeared in front of the press on wednesday business groups and members of trump's own republican party urged the president to avoid a trade war with results. so beings instead of card tariffs following their wins the conversation your promise trump the e.u. . import more u.s.

soybeans and american natural gas trump in turn talked of lowering trade barriers it's a deal at the expense of others however trade flows will be rerouted meaning less purchase from china brazil or african countries and that's exactly what sparked discussion at the w t o meeting thursday evening. the u.s. representative had a few things to explain to his chinese counterpart for now it seems economic peace has broken out between the e.u. and us but a single tweet could up and did all. the steps this is their skepticism given the loss of trust over the past few months maybe even years we really hope yesterday's agreement will be adhered to and i think. it's a chance for europe to catch its breath but the insecurity remains. as well you know washington correspondent now constant fun and naaman ed cost and of course this is a significant development but experience teaches us that the u.s.

president can tear up any deal so should we treat this with some caution. absolutely i think it's more of a truce than the actual piece and also a lot of things are not clear yet this deal so far is just words for instance when it comes to saudi beans it's not clear how the e.u. will actually manage to make sure that the europeans buy more soybeans because how can they force the european consumers or companies to buy that stuff with liquefied natural gas also some technical conditions have to be fulfilled first and then when it comes to the negotiations about reduced tariffs and other trade barriers this is as we've just heard a long and complicated process the question is was on the trunk have the patience to do that and also the tariffs on steel and aluminum by the americans and the

countermeasures by the europeans are still in place and then of course if donald trump is in a bad mood he might destroy everything that has been achieved with just one tweet so i would be very cautious right proceed with caution but nevertheless there was some relief that he felt he in the european union said what about the reaction from american companies and industry how are they taking this latest development. also cautious the relieved the dollar jones was up on thursday probably partly due to a reaction to that meeting in the white house but clearly american industry and also in particular farmers of very much relief they were worried that this might turn into a full blown trade war and that has led the republican party trumps party to be worried because there was a lack of enthusiasm among a constituency that normally is the bases of the republican party in rural areas

and so they put pressure on trump so in the way of course the european union did goods to stand united but also you don't cope was lucky that this was a good timing and trump was ready to declare victory and move on our correspondent past and find a nominee in washington thank you constance well the concept of free trade was fan fed in the bric summit in south africa and leaders of the brics nations signed a declaration stating that the signatories want quote an open and inclusive multilateral trading system as envisioned by the world trade organization but critics say political and economic self interest play. the leaders of the five brics emerging economies immortalized their hand prints in clay they'll be put on display in south africa's creativity even claimed to see in what the oldest find of human bones are also exhibited. it's an image that says we act

for the good of all nations that's also the message that declaration carries denouncing customs duties isolation and protectionism and promoting an open world economy. we must work together at the united nations the g twenty and the world trade organization to safeguard the rule based multilateral trading regime promote trade and investment globalization and facilitation and rejects protectionism outright the statement from china's head of state was met with a lot of approval but at the same time china itself has been accused of closing off its market to foreign goods it's known for copying products promoting its exports and giving preference to domestic companies when awarding contracts. one hundred twenty billion dollars wiped off the value of a company in just one day it can be rough on the markets and thursday proved

a tough day for none other than a facebook as a company shares fell as much as twenty percent and it's not just the biggest drop in the company's history it's the biggest ever one day loss for any company trading in the united states and one reason is facebook's we can expect a growth partly due to the effect of data privacy scandals the tech giants costs also continue to rise as the social network says it's focusing on tightening security and improving content for financial correspondent yes cortizone a wall street yen so certainly a tough day for facebook how's it looking now. you know there's quite some understand and understatement it has clearly been a day for the record books here in wall street some history at the end of the day of facebook or stop loss about nineteen percent in value meaning it burned around one hundred nineteen billion dollars in market capitalization just in one day and

that surpassed the record that actually intel said in the year two thousand when that value of the chip maker dropped by about ninety billion dollars back then when the dot com bubble clearly the numbers especially if we're looking ahead were now. to go out and then also use for example that for the first time ever daily if a user numbers in europe for example declined to call some concerned here a concern here on wall street. right yes go to for us on a wall street he ends thank you. and finally a cautionary tale of the perils affording for a fake news ninjas of course they're a big deal in japan for the city of i gather big money spin as well tens of thousands of tourists flock to the city's ninja festival every year but then a report by an american radio station claimed that the city is looking for a ninja before mess for a new museum and with

performers and definitely not for that money. and local ninjas are also keen to put the record straight. there isn't any shortage of ninjas and the money is just a rumor. i mean i won't hire people who just want to make money only those who want to be dedicated professionals culture and tradition can only be passed to dedicated people. foreigners aren't allowed to be ninja performers but they're welcome in this japanese city of warriors more than thirty thousand tourists came here last year and after all this unforseen attention there might be even more this year. that's a if you're up to date with the latest from the world all things now someone to head to our web site that is d w dot com find us on facebook follow us on twitter d.w. on the school business on there as well have been the see how free is it my hands
