US 🇺🇸 Tariff China 🇨🇳 are we in a weaker position?

[newfie]

This is a problem. A big Eff us problem. There are NO trade talks with China whatsoever. They have NOT called. If the public knew it would cause a panic in the market/economy, assets, US dollar. Even a collapse of dollar is possible. Pure Americano here but we need to prepare for worst case. We might have overplayed. China “Bowing to a bully is drinking poison to quench thirst”. No one will sign with us until China makes a move. I’m not spending. Screw that. Stock up.

you realize if china is talking they will never admit it to save face and will deny it while its taking place?

Tesla is the most American automaker we have?

Nice!

sum of pi R squared times the cosign of the derivitive

I realize it’s a complete loss of leverage for US to dictate any terms.

Don’t thank me. Thank you know who.

seems fair

That election jumping jack came in handy

its also a convinient excuse to price gouge which will take place either way. there will be sellers that stocked up when they heard what was coming that will charge more and blame the tariffs.

Microsoft decided price gouging is worth a shot.

I know they have overseas studios that might be subject to tariffs, but I'd love to know why the price increases are across the board for all of their first party games, even the ones that are made and produced here in the US.

Trump administration has definitely miscalculated how much hardship China is willing to put up with in order to not be seen in a weak position.

Don't you wish you actually knew things, instead of just trying to wish them into existence?

Actually, maybe we could use this time to start the separation from any reliance from China at all. Yeah I know but one can dream

that may be part of the plan. Americans when faced with challenges have a way of coming up with other solutions they had not previously considered.
