China Rushes Exports to U.S. Before Trump Tariffs Kick In

Sep.20 -- The race is on to get Chinese goods to the U.S. before President Donald Trump’s new tariffs kick in September 24th - a 10% duty on $200 billion of Chinese imports, then a jump to 25% January 1st, 2019. Ramy Inocencio discusses with the Bloomberg terminal charts you need to know on "Bloomberg Daybreak: Asia."

To make it clearer. America is rushing in importing supplies and product from China before the tariff effect.

[akltom]

emmm... should we say america suppliers rush to order more goods from china before the tariff? china is not just sending those stuffs to america and leave it in the airport right?😅

[hello]

10% tariff is going to pay by the importer....who is rushing

[dragondescendant]

Last chance for U.S. companies make big profits out of Chinese products, hurry up and fill it up. This title is deceiving.

No orders no exports...Who placed these orders and downpayment? Fake title.

The US is right to finally begin respond to China's refusal to engage in Free Trade. Indeed, the US should take much stronger steps and only allow China to export as much as it is willing to import - aka free trade.

Tariffs on Chinese products, great news for environment. Less rubbish in USA

[htin]

Some people paying Chinese to do this. Who are those people?

God bless Trump! 100% tariffs are the next step!

[dylanbronsch]

25% on Chinese products is still Ok..Americans will still buy it..just cost a little more but cheaper han anything else on the shelf...

[salmastroianni]

I think we should impose those 40 day quarantines to make sure we don't import some chicken flu bug....

[koyko]

Raising tax on consumers so that it evens out the tax cuts made earlier this year?10% is basically VAT, good strategy.

[coffeedollsvp]

China thnks they can do watever....time to show them who is boss..

[Yconntection]

lol i think its on the other way instead

10% tariffs likely has little impact on the volume of imports from China. Most Americans will just pay it so in essence the tariffs will be just taxes without any impact in reducing the volume of imports.

25% will have definite impact, but also an impact against which the American consumers will rebel.

It is just a tautology that Americans will have to suffer enough for any tariffs to have any impact in reducing imports. Will most Americans accept being coerced by authority? This really is the question.

For a brief period, Trump really has the power over the American people to impose its will on them, but not for long.

The outcome of midterm will result in a weakened Trump presidency. The question of whether Trump actually has the power on tariffs, as oppose to Congress, will likely be raised. Can Trump still claim that it is a matter of national security? We shall see.

Unless there is a dramatic development, Trump will not win in 2020. He has now been proven a grave mistake by enough Americans. Independents who gave him the benefit of the doubt, as Clinton was a poor choice, will not support him again in 2020. Trump will not win in 2020 supported only by diehard Republicans.

Thumb down this video for its stupid title.

Sound like more work for the Democratic workers. While the Soybean and Chip producing Republican state are going to suffer from 25% Chinese tariffs. It's not coincidental.
Time to sleep in the bed you made.
