Late last month at the G20 summit, US president Donald Trump confirmed American companies will continue to sell components to Huawei granted that they doesn’t pose a threat to national security. Later on it became clear that US companies would be allowed to sell widely available components which are sold in other markets while more sensitive equipment would remain off limits.

Commerce Secretary Ross stated that the new licenses will still have to oblige the previously issued component availability confinements. Furthermore, he restated that the Commerce Department will only issue licenses after evaluating the potential of national security risks.

Those who remember the chaos of the euro region’s sovereign debt crisis will be asking, whether this is the start of something much worse. Here’s what financial markets are telling us. Bond Risks The selloff in the nation’s 10-year bonds drove yields up the most since May -- a time when the Five Star Movement and the League parties were forming their coalition, and holding talks with euroskeptics who had  floated the idea  of leaving the euro area. The good news is that the hard-line rhetoric has faded somewhat, meaning the concern in markets is about the size of Italy’s debt load, rather than the risk that it leaves the currency bloc.
