China and the United States launched the opening salvos in a trade war July 6 that had been brewing for months. America imposed a 25 percent tariff on $34 billion of Chinese goods. In response, China slapped tariffs on U.S. products and agricultural goods such as soybeans and pork.
Then President Trump escalated things by suggesting imposing another $500 billion in tariffs on Chinese goods.
