SQUAWK BOX, TUESDAY 21ST JANUARY, 2020

A digital tax truce. We kick off our coverage of the World Economic Forum in Davos, as French President Emmanuel Macron and U.S. President Donald Trump reach an agreement to avoid a levy on big tech and retaliatory tariffs on French goods until the end of this year.

But the forum braces for a showdown between President Trump and Greta Thunberg, as both the American leader and the 17-year-old climate activist prepare to take the stage at the World Economic Forum today.

In Asia, equities turn negative amid heightened concerns over the spread of a virus in China that is being compared to the SARS outbreak of 2002-2003.

Moody's cuts Hong Kong's credit rating, saying officials have no tangible plans to address the unrest in the territory.

And we speak to the CEO of EY who tells us the U.S. economy is looking good, thanks to strength in the labour market, while the boss of Schneider Electric says sustainability is a mega-trend that will not hurt profits.
