Can China's Economy Survive Trump 2.0?

Trump's re-election and his proposed tariff-centric policies couldn't come at a worse time for China and their long running economic crisis. So in this video, we explain how this will impact both economies and how the CCP might respond to this change.

Higher tariffs would push Chinese factories to move some parts of production, like final assembly in places like Vietnam, Thailand, Cambodia and other asian nations. Making the item 90% in china but finishing it abroad to escape the sanctions. So the impact would likely be limited but it would greatly benefit other developing countries around it.

People have a bad habit of thinking one singular thing will tank an entire country

Tariff is a tax. On consumers. So a sales tax. First politician I've seen get elected on a promise to increase taxes.

"We will hurt th Chinese economy!"
"How?"
"By ruining their primary market: America."

[VannrithSourisVa]

in the end, American consumers will pay more.

In these uncertain times, it's more important than ever to have a solid understanding of how to manage your finances, invest wisely and navigate economic downturns. But my primary concern is how to grow my reserve of $240k which has been sitting duck since forever with zero to no gains, sure I'm all in on the long term game, but with my savings are lying waste to inflation and my portfolio losing gains everyday, I need a remedy.

Can the US economy survive Trump's isolationist strategies?

[jackofnone]

1) China has been diversifying its export market 2) Unless US manufacturers can innovate and push cost down, tariffs will result in inflation and limited growth 3) China set manufacturing bases in strategic countries such as in Mexico to avoid tarrifs

Yo, this video hits differently! Been hustling, saving, and finally sitting on a $167k emergency fund, ready to dive into investing. But man, this whole "China vs Trump 2.0" saga? Makes me wonder if I should just keep stuffing my cash under a mattress. 😂 Any headstart tips for someone who's finally ready to stop being a savings hoarder?

[dannydenison]

Tariffs are pointless unless they're targeted with a substantial industrial policy. Which is not something America has had for a long time

[mydressmemos]

If we are to survive in this economic crisis we need assistance right away. The ETF and stock markets are still quite volatile, just like the property market. I'm still at a crossroads deciding if to liquidate my $300k stock portfolio

When you do a video on USA China relations, you might want to use a world map with the Pacific Ocean in the middle. Instead of one with Europe and Africa in the middle.
As a bonus you can actually put the arrows where the trade is done instead of the other side of the globe.

"Okay, so I’ve been stacking my pennies (and by pennies, I mean $223k in my emergency fund, lol) and now I’m ready to dip into investing. But can someone explain to me how I’m supposed to feel about Trump 2.0 potentially throwing shade at China’s economy? Like, is this my sign to go all-in on U.S. stocks, or do I hedge my bets globally? Someone throw me a bone here."

China will be fine, can the US economy survive though?

[kylebdun]

US companies have already said they're passing the cost of tariffs to US consumers.

[endofmidnight]

As an American my family will be tightening our purses and pocketing our wallets. Let the great collapse begin🤦🤦‍♂️

[joelongardner]

There are two main points that you're missing on why China does not want to provide stimulus to help support the economy.

1. The CCP is afraid of inflation after bringing 800 million people out of poverty. If hundreds of millions of people in the countryside suddenly don't have enough money to eat, this could be a threat to their power.


2. Corruption is still a large problem in China and if trillions of dollars worth of stimulus begins to flow, a significant amount of that money will be embezzled and laundered into western banks while certain officials disappear into western society.

Famously, Trump own merch (the Make America Great Again hats and the like) is made in China. Oh, the irony...

[vinniechan]

You also need to look.at other countries.that slap tariffs on Chijese good
Indonesia slapped a 200% tariff on chinese clothing and texiles
Even Russia is slapping tariffs as well
