Let's see who wins.
This trade war will Escalate till the bitter end. Neither US nor China can be seen to lose. So it will continue till perpetuity. The free market global trading system has collapsed.
Shipping companies may go bust.

Basically to cut down consumerism. Developed countries really don't need much non food stuff, don't need another fridge, another wardrobe of clothes. Deflation may come in an overheated economy. Then they can boost own economy with stimuli. Time for all of us to cut down consumerism too to brace ourselves.
The big manufacturing plants needs world demand & likely China economy plus their ASEAN plants will be affected. India will.gain since they have big labour market.

Trump tariff has hit the jackpot and one stone kill many many birds….


More than 4trillion wealth vapourized in stock market, meaning many overseas investors has to liquidate their positions and see their collateral assets Tio Bao Jiak. Beekok has win a big time

China fires back. All these will Escalate

CCP was able to use their manufacturing bases in SEA to export to US and bypass US tarrifs previously. Now Trump has caught up… Emperor Eleven’s pants drop..

actually I don't think ten+1 will give a fuck. As far as he's concerned only SEA peasants and China companies will suffer. He himself no sweat.

Please allow this ceca to inform you a thing or two about US-china economic rivalry.

China was the first country to retaliate against the US by imposing an equal amount of tariff tax in response to the US's initial announcement, just a few hours later the same day.
The EU has finalized an initial €26 billion ($28.4 billion) package of counter-tariffs targeting U.S. exports. The US share market is very concerned about the tariff war and the EU and China decision to counter the US tariffs. This is causing fears that many hedge fund managers may face margin calls from the banks to top up their account, if not it could lead to liquidate and close their account.

Let's watch the market reaction when they open tomorrow. Initially it was rumoured the EU would target the US tech sector but they backed off

I really LOL at the low IQ comments here about the tariffs hurting China. The tariffs hit the ordinary American even more.

Besides the stock market crash and pension funds getting wrecked, inflation is coming in to finish off any remaining survivors.

Please remember to cheer loudly for your Trump when the pitch fork carrying peasants march into mar a lago

Agree with you whole heartedly, but you should also realise such artificial black Swan events with a 10 year series solution behind means most of us have the opportunities to earn extra money?

Trump crashed inflation

The US is fucked just by one man. Those who voted for him truly deserved it. Really cannot understand why would they want a man with at least 6 bankruptcies to be their President? Really bonkers.

India, Vietnam, Thailand and Taiwan backed down.

It has now been three business days since Trump's initial tariff announcement, he has yet to escalate his response to China's retaliatory measures, which were imposed just hours later on the same day.
Notably, he also pledged to resolve the TikTok issue and threatened to take military action against Iran's nuclear program if they refused to engage in discussions with the US.
