Donald Trump could be ‘laying groundwork for more tariffs’ by labelling China a currency manipulator

6 August 2019 | South China Morning Post

There is no direct US legal provision linking currency manipulation with more tariffs, but it does free the US president up to take more unilateral action. Other courses of action include a ban on US government procurement from China, an end to trade talks and an investigation by the International Monetary Fund

Tony Nash, the CEO of research firm Complete Intelligence, said that Trump is unlikely to change trajectory at this point and that the issue is “not about Chinese yuan in isolation”.

“You are talking about subsidies, non-tariff barriers, currency, everything, and everything [Trump’s] talking about is related to the well-being of American workers,” Nash said. “Trump has started bundling things that you cannot unbundle.”

Procreative destruction

02 May 2019 | Editorials

China can scale a 2023 population peak. A new study suggests the country’s populace may top out in about four years, earlier than expected. That’s disheartening for the likes of Mattel, Lego and education companies. But it also reflects a richer, better-educated nation. That, and a workforce bolstered by employees who stay on longer, may soften the blow.
