  • Supreme Court Strikes Down China Tariffs, Trump Responds With 15 Percent Import Duties

    Supreme Court Strikes Down China Tariffs, Trump Responds With 15 Percent Import Duties
    Feb 22 2026
    Welcome to China Tariff News and Tracker, where we break down the latest developments in US-China trade tensions under President Trump.

    In a seismic shift this week, the Supreme Court struck down all IEEPA-based tariffs on February 20, including the fentanyl-related duties on China that had reached 10 percent by November 2025, as reported by The Budget Lab at Yale. This ruling slashed the overall US average effective tariff rate from 16 percent—the highest since 1936—to 9.1 percent overnight. But Trump responded swiftly, invoking Section 122 of the Trade Act of 1974 to impose a flat 10 percent tariff on all imports, later bumped to 15 percent, effective February 24 and set to expire in 150 days unless extended, per the Trade Compliance Resource Hub's Trump 2.0 tariff tracker. Exclusions apply to USMCA goods, critical minerals, pharmaceuticals, and electronics, but Chinese-origin products remain in the crosshairs.

    For China specifically, electronics imports have cratered. Politico reports US smartphone imports from China plunged as companies shifted to India, where volumes nearly tripled to $25 billion in 2025, capturing 42 percent of the market—thanks to Trump's exemptions for Indian phones from reciprocal and Russian oil tariffs. Computers from China? Their US import share nosedived from 26 percent in 2024 to just 4 percent last year, a $50 billion drop from peak levels. Effective tariffs on Chinese goods hit 30.9 percent last year amid layered duties, fueling this exodus and raising transshipment concerns.

    The Budget Lab warns the current 13.7 percent effective rate hikes consumer prices by 0.6 percent short-term—$800 per household—and could lift unemployment 0.3 points by year-end, with metals, vehicles, and electronics hit hardest. Trade Compliance Resource Hub flags fresh China threats: 100 percent on rare earth export controls starting November 1, plus potential 100 percent on trade deal failures, 200 percent on alcohol, and hikes on maritime equipment delayed to November 2026.

    These moves signal Trump's aggressive pivot to protect US manufacturing, but at what cost to global supply chains?

  • US Tariffs on China Reach 20 Percent Amid Trade Tensions Taiwan Deal Boosts American Export Prospects

    US Tariffs on China Reach 20 Percent Amid Trade Tensions Taiwan Deal Boosts American Export Prospects
    Feb 18 2026
    Welcome to China Tariff News and Tracker, listeners, where we break down the latest on U.S. tariffs targeting China under President Trump.

    As of February 2026, the U.S. has modified China's IEEPA tariff to 20 percent—split as 10 percent for fentanyl-related measures and 10 percent reciprocal—following a trade deal announced November 2025, according to PMMI's Cross Border Trade Updates. Higher reciprocal tariffs on China are paused until next year, but the average effective U.S. tariff rate on all imports now stands at 9.9 percent, the highest since 1946, per a Tax Foundation study reported by The Independent. This regime, launched last April with reciprocal levies on dozens of countries including China, is projected to cost the average American household an extra $1,300 this year, up from $1,000 in 2025.

    Amid rising tensions with Beijing, the Trump administration just signed a reciprocal trade agreement with Taiwan on February 13, as detailed in the USTR fact sheet. Taiwan will eliminate or reduce 99 percent of its tariff barriers on U.S. industrial and agricultural exports like autos, beef, dairy, and pork, while committing to $44.4 billion in U.S. liquefied natural gas and crude oil purchases through 2029. In return, the U.S. caps tariffs on Taiwan goods at the higher of MFN rates or 15 percent, with exemptions for key products in the semiconductors supply chain. USTR reports two-way trade hit $185 billion in 2024, and industry leaders like the National Milk Producers Federation and National Cattlemen's Beef Association are praising the deal for boosting American exports.

    This Taiwan pact highlights Trump's strategy of rewarding aligned partners while pressuring China. An ECB study via Bloomberg shows U.S. tariffs caused only modest Chinese trade diversion, with exports to the eurozone up just 8 percent last year due more to weak domestic demand than rerouting from America. Still, uncertainty lingers, with Port of Los Angeles volumes down 12 percent in January from tariff fears.

    The Supreme Court may soon rule on Trump's unilateral tariff authority, as The Independent notes, with 60 percent of Americans disapproving per Pew polls.

  • Trump Strikes $85 Billion Taiwan Trade Deal Amid US-China Tensions, Signaling Strategic Pivot in Global Economic Landscape

    Trump Strikes $85 Billion Taiwan Trade Deal Amid US-China Tensions, Signaling Strategic Pivot in Global Economic Landscape
    Feb 16 2026
    Welcome, listeners, to China Tariff News and Tracker. As tensions simmer in U.S.-China trade relations, President Trump has inked an $85 billion trade deal with Taiwan, according to Fox Business, signaling a strategic pivot amid rising frictions with Beijing. The U.S. Trade Representative's fact sheet details how this Agreement on Reciprocal Trade slashes Taiwan's tariffs on 99 percent of U.S. industrial and agricultural exports, from autos and beef to semiconductors, while the U.S. caps its tariffs on Taiwanese goods at the higher of its Most Favored Nation rate or 15 percent.

    This move underscores Trump's push for reciprocal trade, as outlined in Executive Orders from 2025, liberating American workers from unfair practices. Yet, with China, the October 2025 truce holds U.S. tariffs at 3 percent and Chinese at 10 percent through November 2026, per Times Now News analysis. EVIP Magazine reports Trump and Xi Jinping have scheduled up to four summits in 2026 to prevent escalation, but core disputes over technology exports, semiconductors, and Taiwan persist. Analysts warn Beijing views U.S. restrictions as containment, fueling Xi's drive for self-reliance in the 15th Five-Year Plan launching March 2026.

    China's factories and ports buzz with activity a year into these dynamics, Hellenic Shipping News notes, adapting to the fragile truce. Meanwhile, Trump faces rare Republican pushback on tariffs as polls slide, South China Morning Post highlights, with Supreme Court challenges looming over his emergency powers. Beijing urges sustaining the Xi-Trump consensus, The National reports, while red-lining Taiwan separatism.

    These developments highlight Trump's tariff gamble: rewarding aligned partners like Taiwan while pressuring China. Will summits stabilize flows, or ignite a tech-trade break? Stay tuned as we track it.
