当地时间5月10日至11日，中美经贸中方牵头人、国务院副总理何立峰与美方牵头人、美国财政部长贝 森特和贸易代表格里尔在瑞士日内瓦举行中美经贸高层会谈。当地时间5月12日上午9:00，双方发布 《中美日内瓦经贸会谈联合声明》。 以一种确定性，应对另一种不确定性，现在成为一个基本思路。 最大的不确定性，中美之间的贸易谈判，在一个月胶着较量之后，在中方给出具备实力的反制措施之 后，中美双方开启的第一次谈判突如其来，而让市场意外的谈判成果也突如其来。 美方取消对中国商品加征的共计91%的关税，修改对中国商品加征的34%的对等关税，其中24%的关税 暂停加征90天，保留剩余10%的关税。相应地，中方取消对美国商品加征的共计91%的反制关税；针对 美对等关税的34%反制关税，相应暂停其中24%的关税90天，其余10%的关税予以保留。中方还相应暂 停或取消对美国的相关非关税反制措施。 在此形势下，一股"抢出口"的航运行情出现了。采购商订单增加的预期之下，货船是否够用成为新的问 题，热闹的景象之下，90天的期限，对于国内的生产制造商来说到底是积极清库存，还是积极加大未来 的生产计划，这些又都是不确定的。 责任编辑：徐芸茜 主 ...
