So you keep saying , has your ForEx account orders in to take advantage of this situation?The implementation of Trump's China tariffs will not come into effect for at least a month and maybe 6 months. And, the tariffs will apply to the technology sector. And America buys very little Chinese technology anyway.
Trump did this because he knows that economic turmoil is on the immediate horizon with the Gold-Backed Oil/Yuan exchange opening very soon which will greatly affect the U.S. economy.
Trump did not want to be seen as reacting to China's threat against the U.S. Dollar and the damage being done to the U.S. economy.
So, Trump initiated this self inflicted wound so as to appear that he was in charge and that he was in control and not because of any threat China posed to the U.S. remaining as the Reserve Currency. The media needed a Talking Point in order to explain the financial turmoil and Trump gave them tariffs and trade wars as the excuse to use in TV-Land.
The market turmoil is not because of any trade war .... it is because of the new oil/Yuan exchange which China will open on March 26.
So are you investing in this sure winner ?Hi! Hoid
It is not "Manufactured Goods" like shoes and whatever .... It is technology/robotics which tariffs are being applied to. And, the U.S. buys very little Chinese technology in the big picture. In fact, over the past 5 years, they have been doing everything they can to dissuade every other NATO member to curtail imports and refuse Chinese investment into the technology sector.
And, I really don't understand why you don't see the new oil/Yuan exchange as a huge threat. If there is just a 15 percent decline in demand for U.S. Dollars, it hugely harms the U.S. economy. Just China alone purchasing oil with the Yuan and not the U.S. Dollar is huge because China is the worlds largest oil importer.
