The Breakfast Briefing: US Futures Recover Ahead Of The Open, But US-China Trade Conflict Caps Gain

FYI: Who’s afraid of the big bad trade war? Not world stock markets it seems.
The response to U.S. President Donald Trump’s decision to go ahead next week with collecting 10 percent tariffs on another $200 billion of Chinese goods, ratcheting up to 25 percent in January, was unusual and unexpected on Tuesday.

U.S. stock futures reversed earlier sharp losses to trade slightly higher ahead of Tuesday's open,
