  • America's Asian trade partners get a three-week break on new tariffs.

  • We'll hear how that's going over.

  • Plus, President Trump promises to resume defensive weapons shipments to Ukraine,

  • citing frustration with Moscow's continued attacks.

  • I'm disappointed, frankly, that President Putin hasn't stopped.

  • I'm not happy about it either.

  • And Amazon turns Prime Day into Prime Week as interest in the shopping holiday wanes.

  • It's Tuesday, July 8th.

  • I'm Luke Vargas for The Wall Street Journal.

  • And here is the AM edition of What's News,

  • the top headlines and business stories moving your world today.

  • July 9th is out.

  • August 1st is in.

  • With the clock running down to strike trade deals with dozens of countries before a Wednesday deadline,

  • President Trump has moved back the goalposts,

  • delaying some of his most punishing duties until the start of next month.

  • He communicated that yesterday via letters to 14 countries,

  • which also specified the tariff rate they'd face if they can't make a deal with Washington.

  • Asia's benchmark stock indexes moved higher on that news,

  • but just how much relief can a three-week tariff pause really offer to consider that and more.
