*JAPAN SAYS THERE IS NO “BINDING” AGREEMENT WITH US AND DISPUTES $550 BILLION INVESTMENT FORMULA.
Unsurprisingly, the Financial Times is reporting that Japan does not agree with Lutnick's description of the deal - and that there is no written agreement for the $550 billion. Lutnick has been saying taxpayers will get 90% of the profits from these factories - Japan says profits…
This is nuts. They just changed the OINP program on July 2nd which has stranded applicants in the immigration queue, because now they have to have employers prepared to apply on their behalf. It literally voided applications that had been pending for years.
