Trump says it’s not possible to meet with all countries, and ‘very fair’ tariffs are coming in weeks

Quick Summary:

"We have, at the same time, 150 countries that want to make a deal, but you’re not able to see that many countries," Trump said.

"In the end, I think what’s going to happen is we’re going to have great deals, and by the way, if we don’t have a deal with a company or a country, we’re going to set the tariff," he said during an Oval Office ceremony.

The White House didn't immediately respond to a request for comment.U.S.stocks were little changed on Friday after rallying earlier this week on hopes that de-escalation with China signals a lighter touch on trade.
