@jon-nyc said in Trumpenomics:
And with 25% on aluminum, steel, and autos.
I was thinking along these lines. Glad someone quantified it. The escalating trade war with china, remains a big deal.

How are the farmers
of America taking this?
Are they more likely to plant crops or sell their machines?E.g. China has been stockpiling soybeans, and Brazil is an alternative supplier. Chinese import tax on US soybeans is now 104% ?

Maybe this time Trump will say "China will pay for it."

I'm unsurprised that economic destruction is no big deal to people with nothing economic to lose.

From UBS:
Treasury Secretary Bessent said that they saw nothing unusual in yesterday’s market moves.
The 30yr treasury experienced the biggest increase since 1982, equities are falling, the dollar is falling, and gold hit an all time high.
Economists might consider this pattern not entirely usual.

An odd situation. The Chinese economy is under stress (real estate, demographics, etc), and they are highly reliant on exports. Then again, there are other customers to export to than the USA. On our side, the USA is highly reliant on Chinese exports both for end products but also supply chain for so many companies. Really it seems to be more about two power egos fighting it out than realistic long-term international trade objectives. Not sure how it plays out but it will be interesting to see in a year or so how it compares to December 2024 numbers.

This is definitely a bad time for China to have a trade war. The question is how much pain is he willing to subject his peasantry to in order to save face for China and himself.
