The trade truce between the United States and China may be on the cusp of unravelling, and financial markets don’t like it one bit.

Stocks are tumbling on Monday, especially in China. Commodities are also under pressure, as are currencies closely linked to the performance of the Chinese economy, such as the Australian and New Zealand dollars.

Chinese markets are bearing the brunt of the selling pressure with stocks and the Chinese yuan both down heavily from their previous closing level.

Here’s the China scoreboard at 11.45am in Sydney.

Shanghai Composite 2,964.64 , -3.69%
SSE50 2,832.78 , -3.82%
Shenzhen Composite 1,571.08 , -4.00%
CSI300 3,756.50 , -4.00%
CSI500 5,087.11 , -4.15%
Hang Seng 29,376.19 , -2.41%
USD/CNY 6.7882 , 0.81%
USD/CNH 6.7991 , 0.99%

The moves in Chinese markets are being replicated in other other parts of Asia, and in US stock futures, although the declines have been less pronounced at this point.

NZ NZX 50 9963.59 , -0.94%
