(Sharecast News) - The White House has signalled that the UK will be spared the 50% steel and aluminium tariffs which came into effect on Wednesday. In a statement, the US president, Donald Trump, said he had decided to "provide different treatment" to the UK after a deal that was struck between Washington and London last month. The executive order signed by Trump on Tuesday evening will still raise import taxes for US firms buying from other countries. - Guardian
