We modelled a number of scenarios showing all increases in US or Chinese trade protection would cause international trade, and the global economy more generally, to shrink.
High municipal electricity tariffs pose a serious threat to South Africa’s machinery and equipment manufacturing industries.
The recent U.S. trade mission to China failed, allowing no space for future compromise. What follows will likely be much more than a simple trade war.
If companies in key industries collectively shunned the Chinese market, that would force China’s leaders to take notice, with less risk of blowback.
Unfair competition law offers a more effective, targeted strategy to persuade China to play by the rules.
This speed read explores why it’s hard to stop manufacturers in specific countries from dodging trade barriers by pretending that their goods come from somewhere else.
The top U.S. foreign policy goals in Africa evidently no longer relate to human rights or democratic freedoms, but to protecting tiny, marginal American industries.
“Honesty is the best policy” is hardly a hallmark of the Trump régime, so China would have been smart to pursue a more honest, less manipulative path in its simmering trade war with the U.S.
While the proposed tariffs would have little effect on US wine sales in the short term, their long-term impact could be much more problematic.
To be realistic, the US-China trade war gives Australia the unprecedented chance to expand its economic footprint.
There’s a good reason China took aim at US soybean exports when it announced its latest list of retaliatory tariffs.
A closer look at the US-China trade relationship shows why Trump’s ‘targeted’ tariffs are likely to hurt American workers and businesses as well.
The $60 billion in tariffs targeting China not only risks sparking a trade war, they represent a rejection of the WTO’s much more effective way of dealing with unfair trade practices.
While the tariffs are unlikely to stem Chinese intellectual property theft or reverse the steep trade deficit, they are certain to hurt American companies and consumers.
Part of the purpose of trade deals is to prevent politicians from inserting politics into matters of commerce. Donald Trump is bucking that trend. What does it mean for Canada and NAFTA?
President Trump’s new tariffs suggest he doesn’t understand why American steel and aluminum have been hurt in the first place.
A global trade war seems well underway as China and the US exchange targeted tariff attacks. An economist explains what they are, how they work and why they matter.
U.S. President Donald Trump has exempted Canada, for now, from hefty tariffs on steel. An increase in defence spending would likely stand Canada in greater stead with the president.
Trump’s tariffs will have only a small impact on the Australian economy, as Australia isn’t a large exporter of steel or aluminium.
