Chinese tariffs and now Mexican tariffs — could take them two steps back

Image
Mexican tariffs Estimates from the Tax Foundation, said that while the Trump administration’s 2017 tax cuts created about 380,000 full-time equivalent jobs, adding tariffs on Mexican products to the existing tariffs on Chinese goods could eliminate almost 610,000 full-time equivalent jobs from the U.S. workforce. By itself, a 5% tariff on Mexican goods could drain off approximately 39,000 full time equivalent jobs, the Tax Foundation said in an analysis on the heels of the Mexican tariff news. Trump announced plans escalating tariffs against Mexico if the country cannot stop illegal immigration. It’s the latest front in Trump’s trade disputes. The administration has already imposed a 25% tariff on $200 billion in Chinese imports. China is coming back with retaliatory tariffs on $60 billion of American imports. Researchers and business groups say companies and consumers are the real victims. America imported $346.5 billion in products from Mexico last year, acc

Boeing to Replace 737 Wing Parts Boeing has notified operators of the planes about the needed repairs and is sending replacement parts to help minimize the time aircraft are out of service. Boeing has identified 148 parts made by a subcontractor that are affected. The parts may be on a total of 179 737 Max aircraft and 133 737 NG planes worldwide accordingly by the FAA. The 737 Max has been grounded worldwide since March 13 after two fatal crashes tied to a malfunction that caused a flight control system to repeatedly drive down the plane’s nose. Boeing is finalizing a software fix along with proposed new training that will be required before the planes fly again. (Source Bloomber.com)

China blaming the United States for a trade dispute

Image
China issued a report blaming the United States for a trade dispute and says it won't back down on "major issues of principle” China fired back at the U.S. Sunday over the two nations' trade dispute, issuing a report that blamed the conflict on the Trump administration but refrained from escalating the trade war. The report said China has kept its word throughout 11 rounds of talks and will honour its commitments if a trade agreement is reached. It accused the U.S. of backtracking three times over the course of the talks by introducing new tariffs and other conditions beyond what was agreed on. "But the more the U.S. government is offered, the more it wants” The report, delivered at a Sunday morning news conference, appears to be a bid to shore up China's arguments and justify its position in the face of what looks to be a protracted dispute. The U.S. has accused China of stealing trade secrets and forced technology transfers. The Trump
