    There is now only a slim chance that a global recession can be
    averted. Decades of painstaking work to establish rules for
    international trade are being undone by the stroke of a presidential
    Sharpie.

    Incorrect statement. Absolutely worst case, the world will unite without
    Trump and trade happily with each other, and the US will be locked out,
    until Trump changes his mind. But that's worst case.

    I believe in a week or two, the EU will agree to drop all tariffs against
    the US, in return for a drop in the US tariffs, and all will be well.
