Why US China deal slipped from prospect to standoff
The article traces a collapse of a near agreement between the United States and China on trade during 2019, noting a June cease fire failing to hold, tariff escalations on hundreds of billions in Chinese goods, and Beijing's currency move triggering currency manipulation concerns. It quotes analysts warning that both sides may forego a deal, keeping the trade war alive into the 2020 election and harming global growth. It highlights IMF cautions, central bank rate cuts, and disputes over forced tech transfers and subsidies as core sticking points.
