Effective total tariffs on China will be 54% effective 9 April. No way US does not go into recession...

And wait for the response from the trading partners...

Correction: average tariffs on China prior to today was 42% https://www.piie.com/research/piie-charts/2019/us-china-trad.... This means after today, average tariffs on China will be 76%.

China is already in a Great Depression, and this tariff hike guarantees China to be in 30+ years of economic depression.
