BEIJING - Chinese direct investment in the United States dropped to the lowest level since 2009 last year amid bilateral tensions, and the COVID-19 pandemic will continue to weigh on investment flows between the world’s two biggest economies, according to a report.

Initial data indicates a “significant decline” in Chinese investment into the United States in the first months of 2020, said the report, with $200 million in newly announced direct investments compared with $2 billion on average per quarter last year. U.S. investment into China grew slightly in 2019 to $14 billion, with overall two-way flows flattening after big declines in the previous two years. Chinese investment in the U.S. dropped to $5 billion that year from $5.4 billion the year before, according to the report.

If we are looking to see which nation suffers most, I would not bet heavily on China getting the short end of the stick with regards to trade. Our Dimwitted Orange Dictator has effectively crushed the U.S. economy.

FUCKCHINA

Good. China needs to get the he** out of the US and the US needs to stop trying to save 10 cents on cheap Chinese products. We need to take care of ourselves.

Not the one to toss around for Election2020. Corona has thrust China to a World Power status in a hurry. coldwar was Military confrontation & quest for influence. While Post Corona war is managing an Interdependence with many Regional players, woven in a web.

Я в курсе. Пускай падают...
