#USChinaTensions – Trade and Geopolitics Collide

The tension between the U.S. and China is hitting new highs, and it’s more than just a tariff battle now.

– Tariff Escalation: The U.S. raised tariffs on Chinese goods to 145%, and China fired back with 125% tariffs on U.S. imports.

– Trade Warning: China has warned other countries not to strike trade deals with the U.S. that could harm its interests, calling it economic bullying.

– Commodity Freeze: China has slashed or completely halted imports of several U.S. commodities, sending ripples through global markets.

– Bond Market Risk: There’s growing speculation China could retaliate by dumping U.S. Treasuries — a move with serious economic consequences.

– Military Tensions Rising: U.S. officials accuse China of stepping up military activity, raising fears that conflict could spill beyond trade.

This is no longer just a trade war — it’s shaping up as a global power struggle with long-term economic fallout.
