Moody's said American importers absorbed more than 90% of additional costs resulting from the 20% U.S. tariff on Chinese goods.

Most of the elevated tariffs imposed at the height of the U.S.-China trade war have remained in place and affect over half of all trade flows between the two countries, said Moody's.
