U.S.-China trade conflict threatens global confidence - IMF's Lagarde

WASHINGTON (Reuters) - The biggest danger from the trade dispute between the United States and China is the threat to global confidence and investment, International Monetary Fund Managing Director Christine Lagarde said on Thursday.

She said the tensions between the world's two largest economies was a bigger threat to nations' confidence in the global financial order than to gross domestic product.
