Jeff Moon comments frequently about US-China trade and economic affairs on television and in the newspapers. He analyzed President Trump’s 4/9/25 pause in reciprocal tariffs, prospects for retaliation and negotiation in the US-China trade war, and even the possibility of a grand bargain. Other topics discussed have included President Trump’s various tariffs (including the steel & aluminum tariffs); what’s next for the EU; renegotiation of the US-Mexico-Canada Agreement (USMCA); China’s WTO case against the US; the future of Tik Tok and DeepSeek; Taiwan; tech regulatory crackdowns; and the long-term real estate crisis.
