The Fallout Of A Possible US-China Trade War 2.0

Brian Coulton, Chief Economist, Fitch Ratings

The Fallout Of A Possible US-China Trade War 2.0

As the US presidential election approaches, one thing that has become clear is the China approach of both candidates, the incumbent Joe Biden and Donald Trump, who is seeking a second term after losing in 2020. Biden never unwound any of the Trump-administration's trade tariffs on China and in fact, imposed new steeper ones. Brian Coulton, Chief Economist at Fitch Ratings, takes us through this issue and who it might ultimately benefit.
