President Trump (http://thehill.com/people/donald-trump) has signed off on tariffs applying to $50 billion in Chinese products, Bloomberg reported Thursday (https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2018-06-14/trump-has-made-decision-on-china-tariffs-sanders-says).
The Trump administration is working on an updated list of Chinese goods that will be hit with tariffs, and is expected to release a refined list on Friday, according to the Bloomberg report.
An initial list released in April targeted about 1,300 Chinese products worth about $50 billion that could be hit with duties.
Reuters reported earlier on Thursday (https://www.reuters.com/article/us-usa-trade-china/trump-ready-to-impose-tariffs-on-about-50-billion-in-chinese-goods-official-idUSKBN1JA0XX) that the new list will go after 800 product categories.
