U.S. President Donald Trump on Thursday signaled a potential end to the tit-for-tat tariff hikes between the U.S. and China that shocked markets, and that a deal over the fate of social media platform TikTok may have to wait.

In a Tuesday social media post, President Donald Trump claimed he will protect farmers and said he recognizes he had to support them financially during his first administration after they were hit by a trade war with China.

Trump added he would delay a deal on TikTok until the trade issue with China is worked out. He told reporters U.S. tariffs on Chinese goods might not go higher and may even go lower.
