Asian stock markets continued their recovery after US President Donald Trump’s announcement of a 90-day pause on reciprocal tariffs.
China has implemented a counter-tariff of 84% on US goods, effective from 10 April, and Trump imposed a 125% combined tariff on Chinese products.
However, he also announced a 90-day pause on tariffs on dozens of other countries.
