Australia faces nervous wait as Trump’s tariff deadline looms

Australia is no closer to learning whether it will be hit by a higher tariff by the United States, despite President Donald Trump saying he'll be handing down fresh duties later this week. The so-called "reciprocal" tariffs were paused for 90 days, and the White House has recently announced deals with a slew of partners, including the UK, China, Vietnam, Indonesia, the Philippines, Japan and, as of this morning, the European Union. However, an Australian deal is yet to be announced ahead of the pause expiring on Friday. Donald Trump's tariffs have caused uncertainty in financial markets.

A man accused of entering a Walmart in the United States and randomly stabbing 11 shoppers before being detained by bystanders in the store parking lot is expected to face terrorism and multiple assault charges, US authorities said.
