He also pointed out that this will affect the stock market and economic development.

Solomon said that the Sino-US trade war will not adversely affect the risk assets, and pointed out that tariffs will bring “chaos” and “uncertainty” to the investment market. Even though he agrees that there are fundamental differences in trade between China and the United States, there is a need to rebalance, but how long it will last, and how to deal with it. We hope that both sides will focus on dealing with trade disputes. problem.
