The US-Japan Trade Deal

US President Donald Trump on his Truth Social shared that they completed a massive trade deal with Japan during tariff talks. He claimed it was the largest deal ever made.

Japan decided to invest $550 billion into the United States, accounting for receiving 90% of the profits. Japan will also open its markets to American cars, trucks, rice, and other agricultural products.

This was considered historic by many Republicans and experts. It could serve as the benchmark for many other tariff deals in negotiation with countries, reported Reuters.

One of the most important categories under the deal was lower tariffs for the US on auto imports to 15% from 27.5%. Trump claimed that he would give up tariff points if other countries open their markets to the US.

It also triggered Indonesia to open its market to American goods for the first time. Trump took to Truth Social to share another key development. He said,

“Indonesia has also agreed, for the first time ever, to COMPLETELY OPEN ITS MARKET TO THE USA. That’s BIG!!! Our businesses will make a fortune. Likewise Japan!”

This triggered a rally in Asian stocks on Wednesday, with Tokyo Stock Exchange (TSE) surging 3.51%. Meanwhile, the US stock markets jumped nearly 0.5%.
