Last week, I covered the shots across the bow from both the United States and China in the growing trade war. Today, I'm going to take a deep dive into both parties' next moves and how the markets would inevitably react.
With the mid-term elections coming up in November, it looks like the Chinese are cleverly exerting pressure directly on the president and the Republican Party.
In a deft political move, the Chinese are targeting U.S. products coming out of "red" states. Specifically, they are going after products made or grown in counties that voted for Donald Trump for president.
That's putting pressure on Trump supporters, who are now at odds over losing income and jobs and still believing in the president's agenda and politics.
And that's not the only curveball China will be lobbing at the United States.
