South Korea's finance minister Kim Dong-yeon with some comments

  • Says that trade friction is a rising risk to the South Korean economy
  • Plans to appeal South Korea's interest to the US at G20 meeting later this month
  • Government to focus on diversifying exports strategies

More responses flooding in on the trade front. I would expect more of this to come, even after Trump's little threat over the weekend here.

And if the escalated tensions and tirade between nations on this front continues, safe haven plays are going to continue to fare well too.
