The current approach seems to work so far against China though.
1.) S&P 500 up 5.3%, shanghai composite down 15.7% http://www.talkmarkets.com/content/us-markets/china-and-us-drifting-apart?post=183424 http://www.talkmarkets.com/content/us-markets/china-and-us-d...
2.) Yuan falls 1 year low vs dollar, losing 7% since 1st quarter https://www.reuters.com/article/china-stocks-hongkong-close/hk-shares-drop-led-by-airlines-as-yuan-falls-to-1-yr-low-vs-dollar-idUSZZN2NCL00 https://www.reuters.com/article/china-stocks-hongkong-close/...
3.) China has 33.3 billion yuan ($4.9 billion) in corporate bond defaults so far this year, already exceeds the full-year record of 30 billion yuan, set in 2016. https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2018-07-19/why-china-s-local-bonds-are-defaulting-at-record-pace-quicktake https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2018-07-19/why-china...
4.) Chinese manufacturing slowed in June as exports weakened http://www.startribune.com/surveys-show-chinese-manufacturing-growth-cooling/487077651/ http://www.startribune.com/surveys-show-chinese-manufacturin...
also, it does look like each country/block is setting its own tariffs against China
The European Union will impose import tariff quotas of 25% on a number of steel products https://www.marketwatch.com/story/eu-to-impose-tariff-quotas-on-foreign-steel-2018-07-18 https://www.marketwatch.com/story/eu-to-impose-tariff-quotas...
The Canadian measures are expected to include new quotas on certain steel imports to prevent dumping, with tariffs applied above that threshold https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2018-06-26/canada-said-to-prepare-steel-quotas-tariffs-on-china-others https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2018-06-26/canada-sa...
- ajross 8y ago> Yuan falls 1 year low vs dollar Your argument (I think) is that we're successfully limiting Chinese trade effectivenes, and your argument is that their currency is dropping? You understand how these things work, right? Sure, we've limited import of some small selection of items. And in exchange, everything else from China gets cheaper. > Chinese manufacturing slowed in June This seemed like such a whopper I actually followed the link. Chinese manufacturing growth slowed in June. That you conflate a derivative with the function tells me all I need to know about your seriousness.
