You do realize that China is now just going to develop its own CPUs, it's own OS's and its own devices now and China will be better suited to sell to emerging markets where the real growth is since US companies can't compete. I also know the 3rd licensee of X86 will be benefiting from these trade wars because their demand will be going up and they're not a US company.

The United States does not depend on manufacturing as the backbone to its' economic stability. 2. Emerging markets may use 'Chinese Technology' during periods of major growth, but as those emerging markets mature they will likely require the stability provided by the mature incumbents of the field* * as long as those incumbents keep pace with the overall technological development.

Chinese developed products and services tend to be focused on the needs and uses of China, and receive little (but not insignificant) use elsewhere. US multinationals want everyone to use their stuff, and develop products and services with that in mind.
