Trump cancels US$127B of Chinese tariffs, beaten at his own game! :ROFLMAO:



Reports on China
Premiere vor 101 Minuten.

The Trump administration has started caving to pressure from American big tech, attempting to quietly and without fanfare remove a long list of goods from his tariff list, effectively making around 30% of Chinese exports to the US tariff free.

The list includes smartphones, laptops, computers, semiconductors, and solar cells, which the US spends around $127 billion importing from China each year.

This comes after Trump was forced to pause his tariffs around the world for 90 days, excluding China, of course, who refused to play his games and instead put up a show of force, effectively beating Trump at his own game.

Today we’ll go beyond the propaganda. This is Reports on China, I’m Andy Boreham in Shanghai. Let’s get reporting.

China just shocked global markets by canceling all U.S. soybean shipments—rerouting 2.4 million tons to Brazil overnight and wiping out $1.1 billion in American farm contracts.

This video breaks down how Beijing’s move wasn’t just economic—it was strategic, targeting the heart of U.S. exports during peak season and triggering alarm on Wall Street, in Washington, and across the Midwest.

With exclusive data, real-time trade figures, and expert insights from Bloomberg, the USDA, and the Wall Street Journal, we unpack how this soybean shock may signal a deeper economic decoupling—and what it means for the future of U.S.-China trade.

Watch until the end to understand why this isn’t just about soybeans—and why the next phase could hit even harder.

China Calls Out Trump For LYING About Trade Negotiations Taking Place

Donald Trump and several of his administration officials insisted multiple times this week that not only are they working with China on a trade deal, but that a deal could be finalized very soon.

This contradicted the reports that Chinese officials were refusing to even pick up the phone to begin discussions, but the Trump administration insisted it was happening.

We now can confirm that this is a lie, as China has come out publicly and said that they haven't engaged in ANY talks with the US about trade. Farron Cousins explains what's happening.

Trade War : China Drastically Cuts Its Holdings of U.S. Treasury Bonds and Bets on Gold​

By Yassine Atoui

China is quietly but firmly accelerating its strategy to shift its $3.2 trillion foreign exchange reserves by sharply reducing its investments in U.S. Treasury bonds in favor of gold and alternative assets seen as less vulnerable to political pressure from Washington.

This strategic shift was revealed by the Financial Times and confirmed by the latest U.S. financial data.

27% Drop in U.S. Treasury Bonds Over Two Years

Between January 2022 and December 2024, China reduced its holdings of U.S. Treasury bonds by 27%, bringing them down to $759 billion, according to official U.S. statistics. In comparison, the decrease between 2015 and 2022 was just 17%, illustrating a marked acceleration in China’s de-dollarization efforts.

Instead of a massive selloff that could have destabilized financial markets, Beijing opted for a strategy known as “Téngnǔ,” or a “cautious walk on a tightrope.” This approach aims to balance yield, liquidity, and safety, while preparing Chinese institutions for a potentially adversarial economic environment with the United States.

Gold Gains Importance in China’s Reserves

The other pillar of this strategy lies in strengthening gold reserves. Since late 2022, the People’s Bank of China has increased its gold purchases by 18%, raising gold’s share of total reserves to 6%, up from just 2% a few years earlier.

According to James Steel, an analyst at HSBC, this is a “moderate, steady, but very well-thought-out” policy designed to reduce dependence on the U.S. dollar while bolstering long-term stability in China’s reserves.

A Shift Toward Semi-Governmental U.S. Assets

At the same time, China has increased its holdings in bonds issued by Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac, two U.S. government-sponsored enterprises that specialize in mortgage lending. These bonds are seen as less conspicuous but still liquid alternatives to Treasury securities.

Between 2018 and 2020, China boosted its investments in these assets by 60%, reaching $261 billion.

Sanctions Preparedness: A Lesson from Moscow

This cautious realignment comes amid a turbulent geopolitical context. The Russian precedent—when Western powers froze Russia’s dollar reserves in 2022 following the war in Ukraine—remains vivid in the minds of Chinese policymakers. A 2024 study by Tsinghua University concluded:

“The freezing of Russian assets shows the extent of American financial hegemony. China must learn from it.”

Limits to Diversification

Nevertheless, voices within the Chinese system are urging caution regarding this reallocation strategy. Eswar Prasad, an economist at Cornell University, argues that truly viable alternatives to Treasury bonds remain scarce, particularly in terms of scale and security.

Some Chinese officials acknowledge that it might be necessary to sacrifice part of the return in exchange for greater security, in anticipation of a more intense political or trade confrontation with Washington.

A Quiet Shift with Potential Global Impact

China is thus carrying out a methodical and geopolitically driven transformation of its reserve strategy. Not through a sudden break, but with growing determination, Beijing aims to reduce its exposure to a U.S.-dominated monetary system by betting on the stability of gold, prudent asset diversification, and resilience in the face of a potential global monetary conflict.

A quiet pivot—yet one that could have lasting consequences for global financial balances.

 
China denied Intel access – $100 billion wiped out in 48 hours

May 4, 2025

Intel lost $100 billion in market value in less than 48 hours – because China flipped a switch.

In this urgent revelation, we analyze how Beijing's April 2025 directive banning US chips from critical infrastructure not only brought down Intel's share price, but also America's global semiconductor dominance.

With exclusive data, expert insights, and a surprising twist related to Huawei's 5nm breakthrough, this video shows how China's "clean silicon" strategy is accelerating the end of US chip dominance.

If you think this is all about semiconductors, think again – watch the entire tech supply chain being reprogrammed before your eyes.

China REJECTS U.S Ultimatum! $17.2B DOLLAR CRASH As Trump Pressures UK To Cut Beijing Ties​

China just flipped the script on the U.S. in a currency war that’s spiraling into global economic chaos.

After Bessent issued a bold ultimatum demanding Beijing strengthen the yuan, the U.S. dollar plunged, $17.2 billion was shorted, and factory costs skyrocketed.

Ocean freight from China is down 60%, shelves may go empty in weeks, and now Trump is pressuring the U.K. to sever trade with Beijing—only to face resistance from London.

This video unpacks how the U.S. strategy is backfiring, why China’s playing the long game, and whether this signals a new global trade alignment.

Watch as we track collapsing supply chains, currency warfare, tariff retaliation, and the silent standoff reshaping U.S.-China-UK relations.

390.gif China REJECTS Boeing! Cancelled $1 BILLION In Jets, 1.6 Million Manufacturing Jobs Now At Risk!​

Boeing just got shut out of China—$800 million in jets rejected overnight—and it’s triggering a manufacturing crisis with global consequences.

This video breaks down how China’s retaliation to U.S. tariffs is crushing America’s largest exporter, fueling a $55 billion surge for Airbus, and fast-tracking COMAC to rewrite the rules of aviation.

With 125% tariffs, canceled deliveries, and critical rare earth bans, Boeing’s future—and 1.6 million U.S. jobs—are now at risk.

Watch how a silent trade war turned into a full-blown industrial shock, and why this collapse could be the first domino in a much larger economic unraveling.
