我问你个问题，美国大豆卖不出去，中国不买了，这事儿对谁伤得更狠？ 我刚看到那个新闻，说美国大豆对华出口订单为零。零啊。美国大豆协会主席直接喊话特朗普，要赶紧解除对华关税。这个画面我脑子里转了半天，有点荒 唐。 中国是美国大豆的第一大买家，这事儿谁都知道。美国农业部的数据摆在那儿，2017年美国出口大豆总量大概6000多万吨，中国一口气买了三分之二。那时 候中国一年进口超过9500万吨大豆，其中三分之一来自美国。 现在呢，关税一加，直接归零。2018年中美摩擦开打后，美国对华大豆出口额从120亿美元掉到30亿美元，减少了七成以上。美国中西部农场主一年辛苦种 出来的豆子，眼看着烂在仓库里。 我查了下，美国农业部自己公布的数据，2019年美国大豆库存达到历史最高水平，超过2900万吨，比前一年多了四成。那是啥概念，就是田里收上来的堆不 出去，农场只能申请补贴。特朗普那两年给农民发了近280亿美元补贴，其中大豆农民是主要受益群体。说白了，税收绕一圈又补贴回去，账面上是补上 了，市场份额却没了。 反过来看看中国。中国进口大豆主要用来榨油和做饲料。以前美国是大头，现在一转头，巴西成了最大供应国。2020年中国从巴西进口大 ...

其次，美国在制裁也门胡塞武装时，蓄意牵连中国企业。11日，美国财政部海外资产控制办公室宣布对32名与胡塞武装有关的个人和实体实施制裁，其中就 包括多家中国企业。美方给出的理由仍是陈词滥调，声称这些企业协助胡塞武装运输军用物资和军民两用产品。这种指控与美国此前炮制的中国援助俄罗斯 论调如出一辙，其可信度可想而知。 最后，美国正试图联合盟友对中国实施更严厉的贸易限制。特朗普政府近期向欧盟和七国集团(G7)施压，要求这些经济体共同对中国商品加征100%关税， 借口是中国在俄乌冲突期间持续从俄罗斯进口石油。这实质上是想通过对中国实施二级制裁来加大对俄压力，进而影响俄乌局势。这种做法的本质，仍是美 方反复炒作的中国援俄谬论。在美国的逻辑里，中国购买俄罗斯石油就等于向俄罗斯提供经济支持。 如何看待美国这一系列动作？在中美高层会谈前夕接连出招，明显是想通过制造压力来获取谈判筹码，为美国争取更有利的谈判地位。值得注意的是，美国 选择通过施压盟友来围堵中国，而非直接对抗，这反映出特朗普政府实际上不敢与中国正面对抗。毕竟中国维护国家利益的决心坚定不移，美国也领教过中 方的反制力度。但这种拉拢盟友施压的策略能奏效吗？答案显然是否定 ...

据报道，在美国农业界的梦魇之中，特朗普的贸易政策终于迎来了其严酷的后果。2025年，曾被寄予厚 望的中国市场，现已成为美国农业产业最严峻的挑战。特朗普在社交媒体上的"求情"声未能改变现状， 中国对美国的大豆订单几乎为零，而美国农民和政府也正慢慢意识到，过去几年所执行的贸易政策，最 终只是让他们自己陷入了深深的泥潭。 中国的反击策略，可以说精准而高效。中国开始加速从巴西和阿根廷等国采购大豆，不仅替代了美国的 市场份额，还直接压低了美国大豆的市场价格。 巴西的崛起是中国反击的重要一环。中国大力投资巴西农业及其基础设施建设，进一步加深了两国在农 业领域的互依关系。巴西的大豆产量和运输能力的提升，使得它迅速成为中国最重要的大豆进口国。中 国从巴西的进口量逐年增加，几乎达到美国大豆的进口总量，而巴西的良性竞争与中国的市场需求完美 契合，为特朗普政府的农产品出口造成了不可忽视的压力。 美国农业界对中国大豆市场的依赖，无需多言。中国是全球最大的豆类进口国，而美国大豆长期占据着 中国进口市场的主导地位。中国的大豆进口量曾占美国大豆出口总量的约一半，这种规模的贸易，曾被 美国政府视为无可替代的战略性产业支柱。然而，随着特朗普政 ...

Group 1 - The recent U.S.-China trade tensions have escalated, particularly highlighted by Trump's call for NATO countries to impose tariffs on China, which he claims supports Russia in the Ukraine conflict [1][2] - Trump's approach of leveraging NATO for economic pressure is unprecedented, as NATO is primarily a military alliance, complicating the situation for European countries that rely on Russian energy [2][6] - The European Union has expressed concerns that sanctions and economic pressure will complicate the resolution of the conflict rather than simplify it [2][6] Group 2 - In response, China has initiated anti-dumping investigations into certain U.S. semiconductor imports, specifically targeting analog chips, which are not as advanced as high-end chips [4][6] - The investigation is based on a significant increase in import volume (37% from 2022 to 2024) and a substantial price drop (52%), indicating potential harm to China's domestic industry [4] - China has also launched a discrimination investigation against U.S. chip exports, claiming that U.S. export controls violate World Trade Organization principles [4][6] Group 3 - The atmosphere of the Madrid talks has shifted due to these developments, with both sides attempting to gain leverage before negotiations [6][8] - Trump's strategy appears to be more about domestic political performance rather than genuine negotiation, as he seeks to rally support by showcasing a tough stance against China [2][6] - The ongoing trade tensions are part of a broader pattern of U.S.-China friction, with potential implications for global trade dynamics and supply chain adjustments [8]

单产下调预期与出口疲软现实博弈 8月下旬以来，内外盘豆类期价走势明显分化：内盘豆类持续围绕弱现实与强预期展开博弈，期价转为 震荡运行；而外盘美豆受出口疲软以及丰产预期渐强的影响，期价承压于1050美分/蒲式耳关口，进而 回落至1020美分/蒲式耳附近。当前，美豆期价围绕单产调整、中美贸易前景对出口的影响、强劲压榨 需求的持续性以及南美播种天气等因素上下波动。 美豆出口面临多方面挑战 美豆单产下调所引发的忧虑，难以抵消需求疲软与国际市场竞争加剧带来的影响。美国大豆出口正面临 着多重挑战，其核心问题在于中国对美豆需求的急剧萎缩以及南美大豆优势的持续增加。中国作为过去 5年占据全球大豆进口份额61%的买家，在中美贸易摩擦不断的情况下，已完全转向从巴西采购大豆。 如果美国永久性地失去3亿~3.5亿蒲式耳的中国订单，那么即便美豆产量出现大幅下调，美豆期价所获 得的利多支撑也会被疲弱的出口态势所冲淡。 2024/2025年度，美国对华大豆出口量降至2248万吨，同比减少8.1%，占美豆总出口的比例也从54%下 滑至44%。这主要是受中美贸易摩擦的影响。2025年4月，中国对美豆加征关税后，美湾和美西大豆到 岸成本远高于巴 ...
