What Does The U.S. Want From China?

  • The US government wants the Chinese to respect US intellectual property and a lower bilateral trade deficit.
  • Unleashing a trade war isn’t likely to bring these goals closer, in fact it could very well result in the opposite.
  • It risks doing great damage to the US and world economy and denies the considerable progress China has actually already made.
  • For investors, there are few if any upsides here, and quite a few downsides.
