贸易战“打疼了”自己！美国关税政策已陷入战略困局

Group 1 - A recent survey indicates that over half of Americans believe the U.S. should cooperate and engage with China, a significant increase from 40% in 2024, marking the first time since 2019 that a majority favors a "friendly" policy towards China [1] - The survey results also show that most Americans oppose increasing tariffs on Chinese imports, reflecting a strategic dilemma in U.S. tariff policy, as the ongoing trade war has resulted in substantial costs for the U.S. despite the previous administration's firm stance on tariffs [1] - Since the return of the Trump administration in January, U.S.-China trade relations have experienced a cycle of collapse, partial recovery, and sharp deterioration across various sectors, leading to unprecedented economic backlash in the U.S. [1] Group 2 - In the solar industry, the U.S. imposed tariffs as high as 250% on Chinese solar panels to protect domestic companies, but this has not resulted in growth for local firms and has instead delayed installation progress by several years [2] - The impact of these tariff policies has contributed to rising inflation in the U.S. and weakened corporate competitiveness, as evidenced by a drop in the consumer confidence index to a six-month low in October [2] - As the survey results are released, a meeting between the U.S. and China is scheduled to take place during the APEC conference in South Korea, suggesting a potential shift towards cooperation amid ongoing inflation and employment market fluctuations in the U.S. [2]
