It would not be hard for Beijing to offset a loss of demand in a trade war with the US.

As the international community is becoming more aware of the threat the U.S.-Sino trade war poses to global growth, what was originally a bilateral tariff conflict is spreading across regions.

Why have the US tariffs had the opposite effect to the one intended?

In light of growing uncertainty toward the neoliberal economic infrastructure, Chinese economic reforms could defuse the tension threatening this system.

American clothing retail companies and consumers are preparing to feel the pain of Trump's latest round of tariffs. If the tit for tat tariffs continue, apparel and textiles will be placed even more squarely in the crosshairs. This could be a defining moment for American companies that have struggled to stay afloat amidst increasing competition from online clothing retailers.

China says it would cut import tariffs on numerous non-US goods, a major backward step in its trade war with the U.S.

The very firms that the Trump administration claims to be protecting with new tariffs on Chinese goods are concerned about the impact of his policies on the economy and their balance sheets.

The “blue wave” election on November 6, should it come, may change the tone of the U.S. debate over China trade policy. But it won’t provide an off-ramp for what is shaping up to be a years-long struggle between Washington and Beijing for economic and global supremacy.

China chooses not to follow the U.S. Federal Reserve to raise its short-term rates, putting pressure on the yuan.

In the tit-for-tat trade war between China and the United States, a critical battle is also being fought on the public relations front. If one of the belligerents can make a stronger case than the other, it could put greater pressure on the other party to de-escalate.
