China Hits Back

(CNBC) China said it will institute new tariffs on U.S. goods worth $60 billion on Sept. 24, according to a Reuters report. The media outlet said the Asian country's tariff rate on a list of 5,207 U.S. products will range between 5 percent and 10 percent. This is in retaliation to Trump's announcement on Monday, that his administration will impose 10 percent tariffs on about $200 billion of imports from China effective Sept. 24. Trump, in a statement, said that the tariffs would rise to 25 percent on Jan. 1, 2019. Earlier on Monday, White House economic advisor Larry Kudlow said Trump has not been satisfied with trade talks. The world two largest economies have already applied tariffs to $50 billion of each other's goods.
