here on wall street saw this coming and we saw quite a sell of chips down by a good 350 points ending the week mostly on the lowest level on the day and just to put this into perspective we've traded lower for 6 consecutive weeks so that is actually the longest losing streak in about 8 years so certainly not a very good reception here on wall street so a punctuation mark on a bad month who is set to be hit the hardest were these tariffs to come into place it's mostly common you're factors and suppliers to the car industry but then also we also see some trade for computer equipment for example from mexico to the u.s. but you could clearly see that common your factor is probably will be hit hardest and we also saw that here with stock prices general motors losing about 4 and

a half percent just here on friday. now years there are reports coming out that trump's own traded visor actually advising against this move but what's behind that reasoning. yes certainly i mean we got actually the head of the treasury steve new chin and also one of the biggest trade and visors ties there are both saying that they do not agree with the president on this measure on the other side that we have a hard liner peter navarro saying that he considers this move from u.s. president to donald trump a brilliant so obviously quite different opinions on that and besides that makes it cold now this weekend countermeasures from china actually will go into effect so we certainly opened up a couple of new friends and then also people on wall street are asking what does it all mean for possible kateri of so called words the european union so at this point

everything seems to be possible but as we've seen the shop reaction on wall street maybe u.s. president donald trump might reconsider and so that those terrorists mexico might be avoided at the end so the trade tangle getting even more complicated there . for us in new york thank you now the u.s. china trade war the end just mention that's intensifying new chinese counter tariffs on u.s. imports go into effect on saturday targeting 60000000000 dollars worth of goods beijing also says it's creating a blacklist of foreign individuals and companies to ban from supplying chinese firms and caught in this tit for tat are normal businesses here's a look at the difficult decisions they're being forced to make. pink for the girls . and cars for the boys the family run furniture retailer delta children has its business model down pat but it's supply chain that's up in the air the company's

products are imported from china and now subject to new u.s. tariffs wires retailers companies like myself don't know what to do we place orders or do we not place orders if we place orders in china. 25 percent do the rate. it's gets very expensive if we move the production and the duty wake up come comes off what happens to the existence of horrors that we do so we're in the dilemma we don't know we are uncertain is the worst thing you could do for business and they aren't alone businesses around the world are suffering as a result of the trade war with global growth projections adjusted downwards in the u.s. new terrace of forcing firms to choose among several bad options eating higher costs raising prices or overhauling long established supply chains or stress tracing for delta children is that things are going so well with the chinese suppliers they've been trained and well to us and trained in creating safe baby products. and i don't

want to cut those relationships and it's not just delta children hoping for the trade war to be put to bed businesses around the world and their suppliers are watching and waiting for the break. over to latin america where the humble potato might not seem like a vegetable worthy of much celebration but improve it's taking a star turn the 10th annual potato festival in lima is displaying many of the country's 3 and a half 1000 varieties of the tuber the world's largest selection people come from across the country to celebrate different flavors colors and forms the potatoes. and china has a reputation of being the land of tea but coffee is becoming increasingly popular china in fact now produces more beans than coffee powerhouses like coast rica and kenya combined growers are cashing in. they've arrived in every major city international coffee chains are popping up all over china with
