On Saturday, March 31, US President Donald Trump "attacked" Amazon.com Inc. (AMZN) on Twitter, stating that the online retailer "must pay at real rates (and taxes)!"

According to the president, the US postal service loses an average of $ 1.5 on each parcel carried out for Amazon. This together gives a loss of "billions of dollars."

Trump also adds that fraud with the postal service should stop, and Amazon should "pay at real rates (and taxes) now!"

In addition, Donald Trump criticized The Washington Post, which belongs to the founder of Amazon Jeff Bezos, for lobbying the interests of the retailer.

Shares of AMZN in premarket declined to $ 1,423.00 (-1.68%).

Production and total new orders both expanded at the weakest rates for four months, while export sales increased only marginally.

The headline Purchasing Managers' Index (PMI) - a composite indicator designed to provide a singlefigure snapshot of operating conditions in the manufacturing economy - posted 51.0 in March, down from 51.6 in February. Although the reading signalled a further improvement in the health of the sector, the latest upturn was only slight and the weakest recorded since last November.
