About this listen
Tensions are heating up as China launches two new trade probes into US practices, targeting limits on Chinese goods, advanced tech exports, and barriers to its green energy products, according to China's Ministry of Commerce. These investigations, which could last up to nine months, come as retaliation to America's expanding Section 301 probes into over 80 countries, including China, and serve as leverage ahead of Trump's potential China visit.
White House trade adviser Peter Navarro insists these probes have no predetermined outcomes, emphasizing negotiation in a March 25 Politico summit interview. He highlighted bespoke deals where countries trade concessions for lower tariff rates, potentially mirroring rates from Trump's now-repealed executive orders. Meanwhile, US Trade Representative Jamieson Greer told Bloomberg Surveillance on March 31 that US-China ties should remain stable over the next year, focusing on formalizing trade mechanisms, reducing deficits, and boosting US manufacturing—without major policy shifts.
The 2026 National Trade Estimate Report from the Office of the United States Trade Representative details ongoing efforts to dismantle unfair practices via tariffs and deals, opening markets for American exporters while supporting domestic industries. China, however, is doubling down on rare earth dominance in its new five-year plan, aiming to control supply chains from mining to final products and counter US diversification pushes.
Trump's May 14-15 China trip looms large, though Greer cast doubt on pre-summit cabinet visits to Beijing, breaking tradition. With reciprocal tariffs in play and no baseline hikes yet from Trump's February order, businesses brace for impacts amid Supreme Court rulings that struck down prior universal duties.
Stay tuned as negotiations unfold—stability or escalation?
