China's retaliation against Trump's trade war causes the DOW to erase last year's gain

Donald John Trump, over the past year, has fueled protectionist rhetoric between various trading partners. Recently, China has claimed that Donald Trump's tariffs is tantamount to blackmail and has retaliated with additional tariffs on US exported goods, leading to price fluctuations for aluminum and steel over the past months since early 2018. Aluminum and Steel tariffs were items that were originally proposed by Donald Trump to help boost domestic job creation, although the labor market remains tight and limited as unemployment reaches an extremely low level of 3.9 % since May 2018, according to the Bureau of Labor Statistics.

Since last year, as of June 19th, the DOW has erased previous gains created from last year.

Canadian Prime Minister Trudeau has also faced protectionist backlash and defamatory insults from Donald Trump's administration, with Canada growing weary of trade negotiations between Donald Trump and has inspired Canadians to boycott US goods.

Re: China's retaliation against Trump's trade war causes the DOW to erase last year's gain
Hello Nashhinton,

1) In retrospect, was the article meant to be ready on June 20, 2018? If this was the case, it needed to be submitted for review by following the instructions at the top of the article page.

2) Unlike mainstream media, Wikinews' mission is not only to be bias-free, but it also requires following a particular writing style that allows the readers to immediately know what happened and why, within the first seconds of reading:

2.1) In the first paragraph, it is necessary to start with a brief and concise description of the current event. The sentence "Donald John Trump, over the past year, has fueled protectionist rhetoric between various trading partners." is background, whereas "Recently, China has claimed that Donald Trump's tariffs is tantamount to blackmail and has retaliated with ..." is current. The background needs to go to the end of the story.

2.2) It is recommended to keep the sentences short. For instance, the sentence "Recently, China has claimed that Donald Trump's tariffs is tantamount to blackmail and has retaliated with additional tariffs on US exported goods, leading to price fluctuations for aluminum and steel over the past months since early 2018." could be split into two or three sentences.

2.3) It is best to be factual in the first paragraph: replace "recently" with an exact date or time, and answer where and how the claim was made (and by whom). There are five essential questions -- where, when, why, who, what, how -- which, if answered in the leading first paragraph very briefly, immediately inform the reader of the essence of the event. This is required for publication.

3) Great list of sources. I am sure that if collaborative editing was done on time, then there would be high chances of publication. Alas, due to the limited volunteers availability, this has not happened this time. (I have a routine of checking new submissions and helping to edit them every day, however, several circumstances have prevented me from being able to do that for several weeks.) Please understand and forgive this happening.

Please share another story soon. I would be glad to try my best to give feedback as soon as possible immediately after it is created.
