In Response to Trump, E.U. Prepares to Vote on Retaliatory Tariffs

European Union officials will vet and vote on a list of retaliatory tariffs this week, while contemplating what comes next.

FedEx had been raising the costs of healthcare to employees well before Obamacare. Nothing in the ACA precludes FedEx from providing affordable healthcare. Just look at UPS benefits for an example.

You awake yet? Markets are up in Asia and Europe. Our market futures have a pretty high implied opening for our stock markets. Hmmm, I wonder why? What could it be, what could it be?
