What will China do when it runs out of US products to tax?

The trade deficit that exists between the US and China only includes physical products that are being traded but doesn't include services like finance, IT, banking, insurance, tourism, etc.

The real trade deficit is only about US$100++ billion between the 2 countries after including the services.  Therefore, China is likely to target the US services when all the Chinese goods are being taxed and this will hurt the US very badly since the US is a service-oriented country.

Risk-free arbitrage opportunity exists in RMB now.

The CNH-CNY spread is widening and this will present a risk-free arbitrage opportunity between currency trading in HK & China.

The US has issued $300b target list of China goods.

https://sg.finance.yahoo.com/news/us-issues-300b-target-list-065125531.html

This $300b target list will be imposed after the G20 summit in June 2019 when the US and China presidents cannot achieve a trade deal.

China will be preparing a list too but this list will extend to other things.

Let's sit back and watch!

China is brilliant to be hush-hush about its retaliatory US tariffs - Part 2

https://www.channelnewsasia.com/news/business/us-china-donald-trump-xi-jinping-trade-war-escalates-beijing-11530484

China had retaliated with its own tariffs and slaughtered investors who had bought the stocks last Friday.  Those investors bought stocks with the assumption that China would relent and conclude the US-China trade deal soon but they've misjudged the situation.

This US-China trade war won't be a short one!

Best world didn't give a full disclosure on the relationship with its primary China agent.

https://sg.finance.yahoo.com/news/best-world-admits-owner-china-223032614.html

Why did Best World hide this clandestine relationship?

This incident gave Best World a very bad impression as it was forced to admit the relationship by SGX.  This saga also strengthened the Bonitas research's report that Best World was fudging its books.

China is brilliant to be hush-hush about its retaliatory US tariffs.

China didn't respond immediately with its retaliatory US tariffs on Friday.  This is not a piece of good news for the US markets because it keeps the investors edgy since the retaliatory US tariffs will come anytime.  Who will dare to buy stocks when the retaliatory US tariffs will come anytime.

US tariffs against China have taken effect!

https://sg.finance.yahoo.com/news/us-tariff-increase-200b-chinese-040333406.html

Let's see how China will retaliate after the US$200b tariffs.

Many analysts and economists had said that China had nothing more to tax but they're dead wrong. Why?

China can make up the shortfalls by increasing the tariffs on already taxed US goods and this is unlimited.  Tariffs can go up to 1,000% or higher until the US goods cannot be sold in China anymore.

It will be interesting to see what will happen when the US & China don't trade with each other.

India is fudging its own economic data.
