This year has started out on a strong note. For one, Donald Trump is once again the US President. Since he took his spot in the office, he has signed several new policies, including slapping a 10% tariff on all China goods coming into the US. Mexico and Canadian products may receive a similar fate, but with a 25% tariff; the tariff implementation on these two nations were delayed at the last minute as negotiations are underway.

These three nations that the US is imposing tariffs on account for more than 40% of total goods traded with the US. 

As a businessman, Trump tends to run the country in a similar way to running a business. The man comes with a track record of adopting a high-risk (and sometimes high-reward) approach to running his business and now, his country.
