Good morning! It's Daniel de Visé with your Daily Money.
Maybe it's time for a philosophical debate about the meaning of the term "dollar store."
Discount retail giant Dollar Tree has announced that it will raise the price cap in its stores to $7, my colleagues report.

What Dollar Tree items will fetch $7?

For a blow-by-blow of how Trump's fortune reached these heights, read the story.
