Threats retreat again, Trump keeps playing the story of "The Wolf is Coming".

On May 26, Jin10 reported that analysts from the financial website Forexlive believe that Friday’s predictions were proven to be prescient, indicating that Trump’s tariff threats are perceived as hollow. They think the proposal to impose tariffs of up to 50% on goods imported from the EU will be lowered through negotiations. It’s somewhat like the boy who cried wolf; the U.S. government is not crazy; they have a plan in mind, and there are limits to how far they can go. Barclays believes that threatening the EU “is primarily a negotiation strategy” and that the U.S. has not yet turned the page on tariffs, with more fluctuations in trade policy to come.
