Brazil offers $5 billion for companies hit by tariffs
Brazil president Lula da Silva unveils an aid package for companies hurt by steep U.S. tariffs.
Brazil's President Luiz In谩cio Lula da Silva says more than $5 billion in credit will go to companies which face 50 per cent tariffs to export goods to the US.
The US Treasury Secretary, Scott Bessent, says a controversial deal that the White House struck with chipmakers Nvidia and AMD, handing over 15% of their Chinese sales in return for export licences, could be rolled out to other industries.
Startup companies in the US have started a no-shoes-in-the-office policy, meaning that you take your shoes off when you come into the office and wear optional slippers.
