There is basically no IP that China hasn’t stolen or attempted to steal from us, right down to the bulk of their military technology.

And that is why Nvidia, Apple, Facebook, Alphabet, Amazon, Netflix, are out of business, replaced by our chinese overlords.

Stay in your lane. What is it you do anyway? Purchasing for dollar general?

When you’ve lost Rupert Murdoch's WSJ editorial board…
https://www.yahoo.com/news/wall-street-journal-hits-donald-100409654.html

“Rarely has an economic policy been repudiated as soundly, and as quickly, as President Trump’s Liberation Day tariffs—and by Mr. Trump’s own hand.  Witness the agreement Monday morning to scale back his punitive tariffs on China—his second major retreat in less than a week. This is a win for economic reality, and for American prosperity.”
--
“As with last week’s modest British agreement, the China deal is more surrender than Trump victory.”

“One tragedy of Mr. Trump’s shoot-America-in-the-foot-first approach is that he’s hurt his chances of rallying a united front of countries against Beijing’s mercantilism. By targeting allies with tariffs, Mr. Trump has eroded trust in America’s economic and political reliability.”
--
“If there’s a silver lining to this turmoil, it is that markets have forced Mr. Trump to back down from his fever dream that high tariff walls will usher in a new “golden age.”  The age didn’t last two months, and it was more leaden than golden.  White House aide Peter Navarro, the main architect with Mr. Trump of the Liberation Day fiasco, has been repudiated.”

“Mr. Trump will not want to admit it, but he started a trade war with Adam Smith and lost. He’s not the first President to learn that lesson.”

Quote
But the possible “silver lining,” according to the Journal, is that markets have forced Trump “to back down from his fever dream that high tariff walls will usher in a new ‘golden age.’”

“The age didn’t last two months, and it was more leaden than golden,” it added.

China and the U.S. agreed, in the agreement announced Monday, to pause the majority of tariffs for 90 days.

American tariffs on Chinese imports will sink from 145% to 30%. Chinese tariffs on U.S. imports will reduce from 125% to 10%.


Completely contradictory info here from the same op-ed. OMG he capitulated! Did anyone really think the long term plan was to have 125% tariffs on China? We still have 30% and they have 10%. The tariff wall is still there.

The lengths people go to constantly spin everything into the most negative thing ever is so over the top ridiculous.

Pretty cocky for a guy whose “leading AI” company completely got backdoored by a Chinese startup just a few months ago. You complained far louder about the temporary losses from the tariff announcements than you did about the $600 billion in valuation Nvidia lost in a single day.

It’s all fine and dandy that the leading tech companies are still here, where the money and talent to build them into superpowers existed years ago and didn’t really in China. Times have changed. Letting other countries steal our technology and run huge trade surpluses isn’t a good long term strategy. 

It’s becoming clearer and clearer that you are a CCP sympathizer.

No. The WSJ editorial is pretty straightforward. The tariffs were a disaster from the beginning and Navarro is an effing idiot.   

I’m hearing from very reliable sources that Trump retreated when the Chinese offered him a hang glider.

Guess I overestimated you. You are far too stupid to be a purchasing manager for Dollar General.

No way would the Chinese offer him a hang glider. He'd kill himself - they need him alive.

Glad you are giving it more than 30 days. Announcements of investments and investment considerations have taken place, but are actively suppressed by anti-Trump media. At least the Nvidia CEO is smart enough to get on the Trump train, even if Murph isn’t!
