Trade war with China escalates amid new tarrifs
China announced Friday that it will raise tariffs on U.S. goods from 84% to 125% — the latest salvo in an escalating trade war between the world’s two largest economies that has rattled markets and raised fears of a global slowdown. While U.S. President Donald Trump paused import taxes this week for other countries, he raised tariffs on China and they now total 145%. China has denounced the policy as “economic bullying” and promised countermeasures. The new tariffs began Saturday. LiveNOW from FOX host Stephanie Coueignoux spoke to Sandra Swirski, economy expert on the latest.
