TRADE WORRIES: U.S. President Donald Trump's threat of tariff hikes on
up to $450 billion of Chinese products reflects fears Beijing's plans are a
threat to American technological leadership and prosperity. That has triggered
global worries about how the curtailing of free trade might hurt economies and
industrial sectors, but markets are still unsure of what the impact might be.
On Friday, China started giving foreign companies more access to auto
manufacturing, insurance and other fields. The move had been sought by
Washington, Germany and others.
THE QUOTE: "Risk sentiment has firmed noticeably on the dearth of
