The European Union, Argentina, Brazil, South Korea and Australia will not be subject to the trade penalties when they take effect Friday, US Trade Representative Robert Lighthizer told a Senate committee Thursday. Exemptions for Canada and Mexico were previously announced.

Sounds like China is the target.

Let's see trump take on a billion screaming Chinese business commies. Is there some way they can both lose?

Capitalism is based on the ridiculous notion that you can enjoy limitless growth in a closed, finite system.

In biology, such behavior of cells is called "cancer".

Yes. But in the meantime the market tanks, then the US producers that use steel as an input are weakened and Americans end up paying more for goods and $hit.

We are 2% of China's steel market, so the tariff means nothing?

More winning I guess.

The new stuff hammered the Markets and China plans on targeting Trump's base. This should get interesting.

Trade wars are easy to win.
