The U.S. and China had agreed to pause most of the sky-high tariffs on each others’ goods amid trade negotiations – but that pause is set to expire in August.

China’s top leaders have pledged to help companies slammed by higher U.S. tariffs but held back on major moves after trade talks.

Investors hoping for a flurry of trade deals before the Aug. 1 deadline may be underwhelmed at the minute. Talks with China ended in Stockholm yesterday, while a deal with India has yet to be announced. Meanwhile, a clutch of well-known German companies have put figures on how much taxes on imports to the U.S. are costing them.
