On today's podcast: 
1) China will raise tariffs on all US goods from 84% to 125% starting April 12 and will ignore any further US tariff increases. It comes as President Trump’s dramatic U-turn on tariff threats has isolated China as the primary target of his trade offensive, significantly narrowing Beijing’s options for immediate de-escalation. Areas of US-China trade that could be next in line for Chinese retaliation include education, travel, financial services, computing services, and films and entertainment.
2) Billionaire Ray Dalio tells Bloomberg the tariff turmoil has damaged the US reputation for reliability, but that's not one of his primary concerns about the US economy and outlook for a recession. While the Bridgewater founder considers a US recession likely, geopolitical tensions and potential for diplomatic breakdowns are a global threat in Dalio's eyes.
3) New York City officials investigate a deadly helicopter crash in the Hudson River. The sightseeing helicopter crashed into the Hudson River, killing all six people on board, including three children from Spain and the pilot. The crash is the latest in a string of incidents that has rattled confidence in US aviation safety, following a deadly midair collision last year and other helicopter crashes around New York City.
