Apparently China, Japan, UK and Saudi Arabia have all started dumping huge amounts of US treasury securities (ie US debt) and its likely other countries will follow in the wake of uncertainty about the US economy after these tariffs.
The dollar has always been the safe bet but, according to the news the other day, big holders of US debt (particularly China and Japan) are now looking elsewhere

price of everything we buy is bound to increase, even if Apple invests $500 billion to build a new factory that money has to be factored into the cost of products they produce.BrasSmonkey wrote: ↑February 24th, 2025, 4:41 pmhe's getting usa businesses back in the usa! correct me if im wrong!

Even if Apple invest $500 billion, it will cost them twice as much to make their phones in the USA. Meanwhile, they will still have their factories in China knocking out phones for the rest of the world at half the price

That is what i was saying the cost will end up being added in the price we pay when buying the products maybe I could have worded it better.tacnet wrote: ↑March 3rd, 2025, 4:04 pmWhat are you talking about ????

Your absolutely right. The rest of the world is not going to pay inflated prices for phones made in the USA. Not when they can get them at half the price from China and on top of that, USA goods will likely be subject to retaliatory tariffs so the ONLY people that will be paying more for Apple phones is the USA consumersT.B.W wrote: ↑March 3rd, 2025, 4:07 pmThat is what i was saying the cost will end up being added in the price we pay when buying the products maybe I could have worded it better.tacnet wrote: ↑March 3rd, 2025, 4:04 pmWhat are you talking about ????

There's a flip side to these tariffs that you obviously don't get. You say that you cant understand why people keep enriching 'the enemy' - China ????
Well with Trump turning against his allies and slapping tariffs on his biggest trading partners, who do you think those countries are going to turn to in order to fill that vacuum ?? They are going to turn to the only other country on the planet capable of replacing the USA as a major trading partner ie CHINA.
This is already happening. Canada has announced they are switching their LNG sales away from the USA and instead supplying China and Europe who both desperately need LNG. Europe is also seeking closer ties with China after they announced that the USA is no longer a reliable partner.
Believe me, China are going to be the big winners out of this trade war and the American people are going to be the big losers.

You get it most of the MAGA people think tariffs are good for America. You bully countries with sanctions and tariffs guess what they turn to other countries for trade. What we are indirectly doing is telling our friendly partners look else where for trades, guess who is the other big player, CHINA and do not forget the EU overall economy is just as big as ours. This will not end well for our economy.tacnet wrote: ↑March 4th, 2025, 6:53 amThere's a flip side to these tariffs that you obviously don't get.

Well first day of the Trump tariffs and look whats happened
Canada has levied a reciprocal 25% tariff on all US goods to which Trump threatened to add another 25% against Canada. China has added a 15% tariff on all US agricultural goods which is hitting US farming hard. Mexico is expected to respond on Sunday. In the meantime, US stock markets have tanked as investors fear a US recession. The cost of groceries and fuel in the US is expected to go up IN DAYS
And now there is even talk of Trump rolling back some of these tariffs tomorrow. The only thing worse than these tariffs is rolling them back so quickly that nobody believes a word you say anymore
This is total chaos !!!

Did you hear him last night at the joint session of Congress?
He gave example after example of companies staring up factories at home with billions and billions of dollars investment.
