  • President Trump told reporters on Friday that the US won't be doing business with Huawei, according to Bloomberg.
  • The announcement comes amid China's refusal to buy US agricultural goods, which is said to be China's retaliation to the 10% tariffs that Trump announced on remaining imports from China.
  • On Friday, Huawei also announced its own "Harmony" operating system to power its mobile devices should the US continue to bar the company from using Google's Android operating system.

"We're not going to be doing business with Huawei," President Donald Trump told reporters on Friday, according to Bloomberg.

Trump's statement comes amid China's refusal to buy US agricultural goods - a move that's said to be in retaliation of Trump's tariffs on imports from China.

The US is also reportedly delaying US companies from doing business with Huawei, according to a Bloomberg report earlier on Friday.

China also allowed its currency to devalue against the US dollar, which some are saying is a move in a "currency war." The United States officially labeled China a "currency manipulator" in response.
