China’s exports are so huge they’re now lowering inflation in other countries
A discrepancy between China's export data and U.S. import data is "not because ships are sinking mid-Pacific," notes UBS's Paul Donovan.
AI Summary
China’s exports have continued to rise even after President Trump’s 2025 “Liberation Day” tariffs, which targeted China with duties up to 50% before being struck down by the Supreme Court. The country remains the largest exporter in the world, while its imports have declined. Chinese goods are described as cheap and ubiquitous, and Goldman Sachs notes that their affordability is lowering inflation in some developed markets. Data from the Chinese government shows that U.S. imports from China are still increasing, indicating that the trade war has not reduced American reliance on inexpensive Chinese products.
