A temporary truce in the US-China tariff war has brought relief to Chinese exporters, with the US slashing tariffs on Chinese goods from 145 percent to 30 percent for 90 days. While shipments to the US are expected to increase significantly, uncertainty remains, and many exporters are still diversifying production. The 90-day period allows for negotiation of a more permanent agreement, but the erratic US tariff policy has undermined business confidence. Despite the short-term relief, many remain cautious about the long-term outlook and the potential for further disruptions.
