URGENT-Bombardier shares fall after Trump threatens US market access By Fergal Smith
TORONTO, Sept 8 (Reuters) - Bombardier BBDb.TO shares fell 6.4% on Tuesday after President Donald Trump threatened the Canadian private jet maker’s access to the lucrative U.S. market, which accounts for about half of the company’s sales.
Trump made the threat in a post on Monday as a trade dispute between Washington and Ottawa escalates, with Canada introducing counter tariffs on $20 billion worth of US goods. The Toronto Stock Exchange, on which Bombardier trades, was closed on Monday.
