Trump reportedly wants to pull the US out of the WTO President Donald Trump reportedly wants to yank the US out of the World Trade Organization, a move that would upend the decades-old international trading order. According to news website Axios, Trump has repeatedly asked his advisers about pulling the US out fo the WTO and said that the rest of the world uses the organization to "screw the United States." Thr WTO is the international body that helps to settle trade disputes using a rules-based system, theoretically ending unfair trade practices and tamping down the threat of trade wars. The organization grew out of the General Agreement on Tariffs and Trade and was officially founded in 1995. Removing the US from the WTO would undermine the legitimacy of the organization, remove the largest economy from it, and ignite the possibility that countries would no longer follow the system of trade rules created by the international community. Bridgewater Associates changing up management structure Bridgewater Associates, the world's largest hedge fund, is reportedly giving more control to its top executives, the latest move as billionaire founder Ray Dalio takes a lesser role managing the $150 billion firm's day-to-day operations. "This will both broaden the ownership across the firm and help us remain employee controlled for generations to come," Bridgewater's co-chief executives, David McCormick and Eileen Murray, wrote in a Thursday letter to clients that was reviewed by The New York Times. Last year, Dalio announced he would step down from managing the firm, Business Insider reported at the time. According to a client note from the time, Dalio said he expected "to remain a professional investor at Bridgewater until I die or until those running Bridgewater don't want me anymore."
