First up, US stock futures pushing higher this morning with investors optimistic after President Trump says the US has reached a trade deal with the United Kingdom. The president said in a post on Truth Social that today will be an exciting day for the two nations, with the White House promising details in a press conference at 10:00 a.m. Eastern time. Meanwhile, the European Union is planning to impose an additional 10 tariffs on 95 billion euros of US exports if trade talks with the White House fall through.
