1. Trump has no deadline for striking a trade deal with China - and says it might be "better to wait until after the election." The US president told reporters in London on Tuesday that an agreement is "dependent on one thing - do I want to make it."
2. French luxury stocks are diving after Trump threatens $2.4 billion in tariffs on champagne and handbags. The proposed retaliatory duties wiped about $9 billion from the combined market capitalizations of LVMH, Kering, Hermès, and Christian Dior.

7. The tariff fight over the world's biggest plane makers is heating up after the US claimed Boeing's rival Airbus was given 'market-distorting subsidies'. The World Trade Organization rejected the EU's claim that it has ended subsidies to French planemaker Airbus, giving the US fresh ammunition in the dispute.
