Trump on Monday threatened an additional tariff of 10 percent unless China halts the flow of Fentanyl precursors.

The U.S. dollar steadied against major peers on Wednesday as investors continued to take stock of President-elect Donald Trump's tariff pledges, while keeping an eye on a key inflation figure out of the U.S. later in the day.

The president-elect said that he would impose the across-the-board tariffs on Day 1 and that they would stay in place until Canada, Mexico and China halted the flow of drugs and migrants.
