U.S.–China
Trade, technology, Taiwan, and the rivalry that shapes supply chains, chips, and markets
30 stories · Updated 34m agoThe relationship between the two largest economies sets the terms for global trade, technology, and security, and almost every major market story has a China chapter. This hub brings together the World, Macro, and Technology desks’ coverage: trade and tariffs, export controls and chips, Taiwan, Chinese economic policy, and the companies exposed on both sides.
Coverage led by The World Desk
The basics
- Why does the U.S.–China relationship matter to markets?
- Because the two economies are deeply linked through trade, manufacturing, and finance, and because policy decisions in either capital — tariffs, export controls, sanctions, stimulus — change costs and revenue for companies worldwide. Semiconductors, industrial goods, agriculture, and energy are the sectors most directly exposed.
- Why is Taiwan central to the technology story?
- Taiwan manufactures the majority of the world’s most advanced semiconductors. Any disruption to that supply would affect every industry that depends on advanced chips, which is why Taiwan is a market risk as well as a geopolitical one.
- How do Chinese economic policies affect global assets?
- China is the largest consumer of many commodities and a major export market, so stimulus, property-sector policy, and currency management move commodity prices, emerging-market currencies, and the earnings of multinational companies that sell there.
