I posted yesterday on China Vice Premier Liu He, U.S. Trade Representative Robert Lighthizer and Treasury Secretary Steven Mnuchin meeting this week:
In brief remarks from Citi, noting Trump said last he won't that he will not meet with President Xi before the 1 March deadline
- Citi says therefore to look at the tone adopted for of any communication from US officials to assess the chances of the deadline being rolled over, and what conditions there may be
If no agreement by March 1 they say the deadline could be postponed
- for 3 months
- leaving tariffs at current levels or with the tariff increase implemented in phases
