Iran is crafting its nuclear pitch in language designed to flatter Donald Trump’s favorite persona: the dealmaker-in-chief.

As countries around the world try to bargain with US President Donald Trump over tariffs, longterm adversary Iran is pitching its sanctioned economy to him as an investment opportunity.

President Donald Trump is providing some relief to automakers reeling from his steep 25% tariffs imposed on foreign cars and auto parts. Trump, under a proclamation he signed April 29, is offering auto companies credits for a portion of the tariffs on auto parts that they import to build vehicles in the U.

World stocks and the dollar nudged up on Tuesday after U.S. President Donald Trump's administration said it planned to reduce the impact of auto tariffs, a further sign of flexibility on a trade policy that has wreaked havoc on markets in April.

President Donald Trump will sign an executive order Tuesday that aims to soften the blow of new tariffs on auto parts by offering an offset to automakers that finish their cars in the U.S., according to White House officials.

Trump’s second term has seen a significant increase in executive orders, with more than 140 signed in his first 100 days, and a decline in his approval rating.

In Trump’s first one hundred days, the dollar has weakened 9%, a mirror image of Reagan’s first 100 days, explains Bloomberg Opinion columnist John Authers. (Source: Bloomberg)
