World markets dive as Trump sparks trade, North Korea worries

Global stocks sank Wednesday after US President Donald Trump said he was not satisfied with talks that are aimed at averting a trade war with China. Equities were also dented by poor eurozone economic data, and as Trump cast doubt on a planned summit with North Korean leader Kim Jong Un. “Trump (is) continuing to drive uncertainty over global trade,” said analyst Joshua Mahony at trading firm IG. “European markets are following their Asian counterparts lower, as a pessimistic tone from Trump is compounded by downbeat economic data,” he added. Markets had surged Monday after US Treasury Secretary Steven Mnuchin and Chinese Vice Premier Liu He said they had agreed to pull back from imposing threatened tariffs on billions of dollars of goods, and continue talks on a variety of trade issues. However, Trump has declared that he was “not satisfied” with the status of the talks, fuelling worries that the world’s top two economies could still slug out an economically pain...

Hennessey's Venom F5 Hypercar Could Break The 300 Mph Barrier -.

Hennessey performance releases a teaser of what appears to be the ‘Venom F5‘ hypercar breaking the 300 mph (480 km/h) speed record. The photograph was released on the american-automakers official instagram account showing the back of the car next to a speed limit sign showing 300 mph.

Hennessey performance has stated that its new ‘venom F5’ will be one of the fastest cars on the planet when it is presented at SEMA on 1st November 2017. The hypercar is believed to have around 1500 bhp while weighing in at less than 1300 kg meaning that it may be capable of topping the ‘venom GT’s’ top speed record of 270mph. There are several similarities between this image and the earlier renders of the original ‘venom’, with stylish rear lights being the most notable feature created from the rendered images.

Additional noteworthy items include the rear wing dominating the back of the vehicle, and the all-carbon rear diffuser setup suggesting that the final car will be very close to the renders. To date no manufacturer has managed to successfully create tires that can survive 300 mph while remaining usable on the road. however, if Hennessy has managed to overcome this obstacle it will be very interesting news for car enthusiasts indeed.
