BlockBeats News, April 7th, Larry Kudlow, Director of the U.S. National Economic Council, stated that it is time to moderate the (tariff) rhetoric. He played down economic concerns about Trump's tariffs, saying the U.S. President spent the entire weekend in talks with world leaders and will listen to suggestions regarding major deals. Kudlow said: "He's doubling down on things he knows are effective, and he will continue to do so." "But he will also listen to our trading partners, and if they bring forward truly great deals that benefit American manufacturing and American farmers, I believe he will listen." (FXStreet)
