Izumi Kobayashi, director at Japan's Mizuho Financial, Omron and ANA, said on Tuesday that companies should not overreact to U.S. president-elect Donald Trump's threats of imposing tariffs on Chinese goods.

Kobayashi said that industrial conglomerate Omron has not yet taken any action to prepare for potential sanctions the incoming Trump administration may impose, but there are some ongoing discussions about it.
