  • A lot of companies bought ahead of tariffs. It'll even out in a couple of months.

    • Once Chinese companies find new buyers, what reason do they have to go back to trading with the US. Trump's policies change arbitrarily day to day, and trying to do trade with the US is like trying to build a house on shifting sands at this point. Even if the demand from the US rebounds, I doubt there's going to be as much supply going forward as there was before because trading with the US will be seen as being an inherently risky business.

        To make more money. The bigger your market, the more customers you have, the more money you can make. Also, these "new buyers," where have they been? Why was China holding out? That makes no sense at all.

        Trump is seen as inherently risky. He has just a short few years remaining. A president like him comes only rarely.
