On Wednesday, American futures fell after US President Donald Trump again threatened to increase duties on Chinese goods if the parties did not sign a trade deal in the near future.
«If we don’t make a deal with China on our terms, I will raise the tariffs even higher», – Trump told reporters at the meeting in the White House. Trump’s message frightened investors and made them turn to defensive assets.

Urban Outfitters Inc shares fell 16.1%, Pacific Gas lost 4.7% at the premarket, while Micron shares declined by 1.3%.
