The threat of tariffs on $11 billion of imports has sent stocks of potential affected companies lower. The duties may affect almost a third of Rémy Cointreau sales.
The EU food and beverage products in Trump's crosshairs include certain varieties of seafood such as salmon fillets and swordfish steaks; yogurt, butter, chocolate milk, and Roquefort and Cheddar cheeses; Tokay and Marsala wines; fruits such as mandarins and lemons as well as juices including peach and apricot; and olive oils and snails.
The clothing and accessories earmarked for tariffs include some types of handbags, sweaters, wool suits, pajamas, swimwear, ski-suits and anoraks. Also on America's blacklist are various kinds of kitchen and hunting knives, microwave ovens, carpets, bed linen, blankets, binoculars, wall clocks, CCTV camera lenses, paintbrushes, yarn, household ceramics, glassware, metal and wooden tools, paper products, and parts and accessories for motorcycles and bicycles.
