A week of nail-biting by Wall Street was ended by the US Government's announcement that the trade agreement had been settled.

Thanks dlowan.

I didn't get what the "by" in your rewriting means. How about "a week of nail-biting on Wall Street..."

On is fine.

"By" would mean that the nails bitten were those of the denizens of the famous street.

Interesting...

A week of nail-bitting by Wall Street ended when the US government announced that the trade agreement had been settled.

OR

A week of nail-biting by Wall Street ended with the US government's announcement that the trade agreement had been settled.

Get rid of the passive construction, eliminate the redundant "statement."

A week of nail-biting on Wall Street came to an end today with the govenment's announcement of the trade agreement settlement.

Or how about... Many Wall Street denizens, fearing the trade agreement would never be settled, jumped to their deaths today.

I prefer this solution, albeit more on policy grounds than on linguistic ones.

Thanks!

And how about "Washington" instead of "the US government"?
