Newark's airport chaos frustrates carriers, worries travelers

Travelers flying in and out of New Jersey's Newark Liberty International Airport were increasingly edgy about a host of recent problems at the busy airport, but they were most alarmed about two separate equipment outages in the last two weeks that disrupted communications between air traffic controllers and pilots. The airport is one of the busiest in the United States, last year handling nearly 49 million passengers out of the York metro area, the most populous in the country.

Trump softens on China trade war, suggesting an 80% tariff 'seems right'

U.S. officials are set to meet with a high-level Chinese delegation in Switzerland this weekend in the first major talks between the nations since Trump's tariffs announcement.
In an article published on May 9, 2025, by Fortune, it is reported that former President Donald Trump has proposed an 80% tariff on Chinese imports as part of his strategy to escalate the trade war with China. This proposal comes in response to ongoing tensions and aims to protect American industries from what Trump describes as unfair trade practices by China. The article discusses the potential economic impacts of such a high tariff, including increased costs for American consumers and possible retaliatory measures from China. It also mentions the reactions from various stakeholders, including business leaders and economists, many of whom express concerns about the potential for further disruption in global trade.
