The United States introduce taxes on China Sunday, before rest Monday, Do not miss tomorrow

"Off" day on Wall Street, the first Monday of September corresponding each year to "Labor Day", ie the day dedicated to Labor Day. No statistic in sight, therefore, on the other side of the Atlantic, nor of publication of company accounts. And no reaction, no, more, before Tuesday to the application of the new surcharges announced by Donald Trump the 1^st August on the $ 300 billion of Chinese import goods that were still exempt.

But it is only a first installment of just under half of that amount that is concerned, at the rate of 15%, as of this Sunday 1^st September. China retaliates the same day with a 5% to 10% tax on 5,078 US products, for a total of 75 billion dollars.

PMI on the program

But reaction, there should not be, as markets have already incorporated these ads. Neither in Paris, therefore, on Monday, when the Bourse will have its doors wide open.

Few prominent appointments to report, by the way, for this first day of the week. It will indeed be content with manufacturing activity indices PMI for the month of August. As definitive data, this nonetheless relativizes the impact of this statistic. The figures are expected to be published in China, Japan, the euro area and the United Kingdom.
