Version 1.76 (2024-05-22 20:53:31.587000)

updates: The U.S. is imposing steep tariff increases on Chinese imports, including electric vehicles, computer chips, and medical products, effective August 1. The tariffs, intended to protect American jobs, incur significant costs on imports like lithium-ion batteries and steel, with a public comment period closing June 28. President Joe Biden will keep tariffs put in place by his Republican predecessor Donald Trump while ratcheting up others, including a quadrupling of import duties on Chinese EVs to over 100% and a doubling of semiconductor duties to 50%. The largest two categories of targeted imports from China are lithium-ion batteries, making up $13.2 billion of the imports in 2023. The U.S. Trade Representative's office is seeking public comments on the effects of the proposed tariff increases on the U.S. economy, including consumers. The new measures affect $18 billion in current imported Chinese goods including steel and aluminum, semiconductors, electric vehicles, critical minerals, solar cells, and cranes. The Chinese Embassy in Washington has stated that China will take measures to defend its rights and interests and that the tariff hike will disrupt economic and trade cooperation between China and the U.S. and significantly drive up the cost of imported goods.

Version 1.7 (2024-05-20 09:58:30.939000)

updates: The recent imposition of tariffs by the United States on Chinese goods is seen as a calculated move aimed at electoral gain. The proposed tariffs, including the possibility of imposing 100 percent duties on Chinese electric cars, are viewed as a rhetorical gambit in a political contest. The escalating rhetoric surrounding tariffs has raised eyebrows, with some speculating that former President Donald Trump may soon pledge even higher tariffs in response. Analysts are contemplating the potential real-world impacts, particularly in Europe. The introduction of these tariffs represents a pivotal moment in the ongoing tug-of-war between proponents of economic disengagement and advocates of risk reduction within the US administration. Some within the administration may view the tariffs as a means to advance the green industrial agenda. However, the broader implications of such tariffs extend beyond domestic policy considerations and have reverberations in the global economic landscape, particularly with respect to trade relations and geopolitical dynamics.

Version 1.52 (2024-05-16 14:53:57.511000)

updates: The new tariffs announced by Biden on Chinese green tech imports, including electric vehicles, chips, and solar cells, aim to protect US industries and promote the development of the domestic clean energy sector. The tariffs are expected to target $18 billion in imports across new and already targeted sectors. Chinese companies believe the additional tariffs will have a short-term impact but will not affect their overseas business in the medium or long term. The limited nature of the US measures this time may help contain China's response. The World Trade Organization has concluded that the US Section 301 tariffs are violations of its rules and international law. China has revised its Tariff Law to retaliate against countries that impose high tariffs on Chinese products. The US-China trade tensions are expected to escalate in the short term as the conflict deepens. The direct impact of the tariff hikes is limited and more of a signal. China's response will be telling in terms of how officials plan to address acts they deem as economic suppression.

Version 0.84 (2024-05-14 11:53:17.916000)

updates: US President Biden announces steep tariff increases on Chinese imports, including EVs, computer chips, and medical products. The new measures impact $18 billion in Chinese imported goods. Biden's tariff increases are in line with those implemented by his predecessor, Donald Trump, but the White House criticized Trump's 2020 trade deal with China for not increasing American exports or boosting American manufacturing jobs. The Biden administration believes that the new tariffs, combined with domestic investment and close alliances, will not worsen inflation or provoke retaliation from Beijing. However, analysts have warned that the trade tiff could raise costs for electric vehicles and hinder Biden's climate goals and job creation plans. The tariffs will be increased under Section 301 of the Trade Act of 1974, with further tariff increases planned for 2025 and 2026 on semiconductors, lithium-ion batteries, graphite, permanent magnets, and rubber medical and surgical gloves. The Biden administration has spent weeks finalizing the measures, carefully considering which items to target and which to exclude due to their importance in fueling American growth. The administration has signaled that it will exclude certain items, such as machinery used to make solar panel components, in order to support the US solar industry. The Biden administration's focus has been on sectors of longstanding concern, according to Greta Peisch, a partner at law firm Wiley Rein LLP who previously served as the top trade lawyer for the US Trade Representative's office.

updates: US trade chief recommends higher tariffs to address China's 'unfair' practices

Version 0.82 (2024-05-14 10:55:29.081000)

updates: The US government has proposed increasing tariffs on imports of Chinese semiconductors, electric vehicles (EVs), and batteries to address 'unfair' technology transfer-related practices. Tariffs would rise to 100% from 27.5% on EVs and to 50% on semiconductors and solar cells. Tariffs on lithium-ion vehicle batteries and battery parts would rise to 25%. US Trade Representative Katherine Tai specifically called out 'cyber intrusions and cyber theft' as transfer-related problems. The proposal suggests establishing a process to exclude machinery used in domestic manufacturing from the tariff hikes. Chinese authorities are likely to respond with their own tariffs and may push for negotiations.

Version 0.8 (2024-05-14 09:53:27.288000)

updates: The US has imposed new tariffs on Chinese goods, including a 100% rate on electric vehicles, as part of a broader strategy to compete with China in the green technology sector. The tariffs also include a doubling of tariffs on solar panels to 50%, as well as tariffs on steel and aluminium. China is currently a world leader in electric car manufacturing and the production of solar panels. The US aims to give itself a fighting chance at competing with China in these industries and to prevent China from winning the race to build out new industries related to green energy and cleaner products. The tariffs are also intended as a political message to show the US's toughness on China and to outdo the previous administration's stance on trade with China. Economists are concerned about the potential negative impact of tariffs on the global economy.

Under the new Biden plan, tariffs on Chinese EVs are expected to roughly quadruple, from 25% to around 100%. Senate Banking Committee Chairman Sherrod Brown has urged the Biden administration to outright ban Chinese EVs due to concerns over potential risks to Americans' personal data. These measures could cause retaliatory actions from China amid escalating tensions between the two economies. The White House and the US Trade Representative's office have not provided any comments on the matter.

updates: The Biden administration plans to announce significant changes to former President Trump’s tariffs on Chinese imports, with some industries expected to see increased levies while others may see reduced tariffs. The new tariffs are the result of a mandatory review required every four years under US trade laws, and are aimed at addressing concerns related to state-sponsored competition. Former aide Adam Hodge believes that the new tariffs, along with other policies enacted by the administration, will help ease anxiety among the electorate and neutralize China as a campaign issue. Some economists have warned that increased tariffs could lead to a trade war with China, ultimately hurting the US economy by increasing costs for businesses and consumers. Americans have already paid over $230 billion in tariffs imposed by Trump on goods such as solar panels, steel, aluminum, and Chinese-made products. Treasury Secretary Janet Yellen has discussed US concerns with China’s non-market practices in bilateral meetings with Chinese leaders and will attend a meeting with other finance ministers from the Group of Seven nations in Italy. The Biden administration has been urging allies in the European Union to impose tariffs on electric vehicles imported from China, highlighting the threat posed by China to domestic car manufacturing.
