President Trump announced potentially crippling tariffs against Canada, only to suspend them for 30 days. What will satisfy him remains unknown.

What to know as President Donald Trump imposes steep new tariffs on imports from Canada, Mexico and China, prompting retaliation and countermeasures.

After many months of threats, the US has imposed 10% tariffs on all Chinese goods coming into the country. Helen Qiao, chief economist for Greater China at Bank of America, joins John Lee and Katia Dmitrieva to gauge the impact in the world's second largest economy and what could lay ahead.

The move likely will trigger retaliation and risk igniting a trade war that could cause broad economic disruption for all countries involved.

Donald Trump’s new trade war is further blurring the lines between Hong Kong and Beijing, threatening to erode the city’s main selling point as a global financial hub.
