Has CNBC Lost Their Minds?
Back in May, Goldman-Sachs came out and claimed that American businesses and consumers were bearing the full cost of the Chinese tariffs. This is funny in so many ways. If this were truly the situation, why are Chinese companies (and others) opening up plants in the US now? If this were the case, why are companies changing their supply lines away from China?
Let’s remember Goldman Sachs is a premier investment firm who controls assets in the tens of billions. Back in May, Goldman clearly did not believe that PDJT would follow through on more tariffs. They really just didn’t believe a U.S. President would ever go into a full economic confrontation with China. In this Goldman probably represents the majority opinion of the Wall Street ‘multinational’ community at that time.
