is not complying with the so-called phase one trade deal, sources familiar with
the matter told CNBC.
The report said Tai will outline how China has fallen short on a pledge to purchase an additional $200B in goods. They’ve only hit about 62% of the target. No doubt China will highlight the impact of the pandemic.

The news of the announcement could weigh on sentiment Monday but I don’t expect the market to be overly concerned with a trade war.
