president donald trump is delaying some tariffs on chinese goods until december 15th moves a move he said is meant to help american consumers the products include mobile devices laptops video games toys and textiles trump made the announcement shortly after trade representatives representatives from the 2 countries spoke on the phone shares of tech companies and retailers jumped on news however the 10 percent tariff will go ahead as planned for many other items on september 1st. and let's check in with our financial correspondent in new york jose luis a haro jose nice to see you markets really jumped on this news today does that mean investors really believe that this could lead to something lasting a long term agreements. sadly nod stephen but at this point any move that does not imply increasing tensions between the u.s. and china is enough to cure investors markets a delay as

a blink from bad to trump administration trying to deescalate somehow the current situation which has a spill into all the areas such as currencies than and the nation by the us treasury of china as a currency manipulator for example say the conversations between both countries are still conducted over defoe no need to steal not period negotiations will finally negotiators actually will finally meet face to face in washington next september and for now the recent compromise and for another phone conversation in the next 2 weeks and meanwhile president trump said that the conversation was so productive then again implied that china my now might be more i would call her a product from the us a but so far has not bling back in this regard so we investors are just too cautious and nada expecting a big deal any time soon those they want to ask you something about what trump had to say about this de lay let's take a listen real quick. but

. i. don't know if you could make that out over the helicopter noise but trump was insisting there that tariffs at this point have not heard consumers but that the recent decision was made to help consumers so which is it are tariffs hurting consumers or are they not hurting them. dr stephen is a strong consumption it's what it's currently is the same in the u.s. economy and somehow led by a bottle he's trade war with china better as we head into the holiday season it is obvious that the us president cannot risk applying it to some of the most popular products among us and consumers are already affecting prices

a with inflation surging 3 tenths of our percent in july and without the delay in did 10 percent duty on certain products many retailers wouldn't have had enough time to order inventories in advance of the holiday season to avoid the new tards having either to absorb the cost or to the consumer so what's in mind but one thing that don't harm consumers retailers have believe they do and as for now it seems the u.s. president is trying to avoid a nightmare before christmas so her it was a lose to her there in new york for us thank you. and over to hong kong now where the clashes between protesters and police have continued to rob markets disrupting hundreds of flights this week at the city's airport the travel hub reportedly contributes about 5 percent to hong kong's g.d.p. some experts estimate the disruptions have already cost hong kong tens of millions of dollars a figure set to rise if the turmoil continues the political crisis has also weighed
