The potential negative impact of the growing U.S.-China tech war on American companies

Posted by

The United States and China have been engaged in a tech war for quite some time now, and the stakes are higher than ever. The latest escalation of the U.S.-China tech war could be damaging for American companies, as both countries continue to impose tariffs, trade restrictions, and export controls on each other’s technology products and services.

The U.S.-China tech war has been characterized by intense competition and a battle for technological dominance. The Trump administration has imposed tariffs on a wide range of Chinese goods, including consumer electronics, as part of its trade war with China. In response, China has imposed retaliatory tariffs on American goods, including chips and other tech products.

The tech war has also extended beyond trade tariffs, with both countries imposing export controls on each other’s technology products. The U.S. Department of Commerce recently added several Chinese companies to its Entity List, effectively banning American companies from doing business with them. This move has been seen as a direct attack on China’s growing tech industry, and it could have serious implications for American companies that rely on Chinese suppliers or customers.

The escalating tech war could hurt American companies in several ways. First, the trade restrictions and export controls could disrupt supply chains and increase the cost of doing business for American companies that rely on Chinese suppliers. This could lead to higher prices for American consumers and reduced profitability for American companies.

Second, the tech war could damage the competitive position of American companies in the global market. Chinese companies are rapidly gaining ground in the tech industry, and the trade restrictions and export controls could limit the ability of American companies to compete with their Chinese counterparts. This could result in lost market share and reduced growth opportunities for American companies.

Third, the tech war could have broader economic implications for the United States. The tech industry is a major driver of economic growth and innovation, and the escalating tech war could hinder the ability of American companies to innovate and develop new products and services. This could have a negative impact on the overall competitiveness of the U.S. economy.

In conclusion, the escalating U.S.-China tech war could hurt American companies in several ways. From disrupted supply chains and increased costs, to limited competitiveness and reduced economic growth, the implications of the tech war are significant. It is essential for the U.S. government to carefully consider the potential impact of its policies on American companies and the broader economy, and to work towards a more collaborative and constructive relationship with China in the tech industry.

Advance chips in a toaster? 2nm chip? I doubt it.

Obviously it hurts both countries. However US public need enemies as always. That's why the Weapons of Massive Deception exists and effective. They mentally need threats so the MSM journalists and politicians pander their need. They finally will blame their democatically elected politicians cheating but they never consider they wanted to be cheated at the first place.

The purpose of tech war is to win domestic votes which is what democracy demands. US politicians are doing all the right steps of democracy even if this will end the US economy. Belief is the most important mentality after secularization.

Has anyone but me viewed the Chinese film "Drug War" about crystal methamphetamine exporting adopting the tried and true "Pablo Escobar" business model?

1- The two points of greatest weakness in this current world economic panorama are: on the one hand, the retail and wholesale market, and on the other, the real estate market, due to these characteristics described above. Retail-wholesale; due to the preference for maximum short-term liquidity; and the real estate market due to the market's lack of interest in the medium or long term. The first case generates price inflation that is continuously marked down accompanied by a corresponding reduction in consumption, in an arm wrestle that wholesalers end up losing due to the instability of having to manage very high inventories. In the second case, the dizzying increases in real estate inventories are due to this immense saturation in the production market, especially in Communist China, raising serious doubts in the minds of investors about the ability to recover their real estate investments in the medium and long term. Supermarket prices go up and property prices go down!

The U.S. government should think about how to develop other emerging technological fields to widen the technological gap with China, instead of always trying to surpass existing technological fields.

You can find many clips saying China is collapsing from CNBC. How can a collapsing country beat the U.S and U.S companies?

The first 9 seconds of this video is just incredibly wrong. Think about this does you 20 dollar toaster power by advanced semiconductors, get real, is the toaster cost the same as the Apple iPhone or iPad, in theory if they are powered by advanced micro chips they would be cost about the same as an iPhone. Does fighter jet use 3nm technology? Definitely not, striping down a fighter jet you won't find a 3nm chip in it. There is nothing these four items shared in the semi conductor technology used inside of them. Then we follow on with 2 totally clueless analysts. China does not have leadership in this technology but China has the human resource to get there, based on what is happening in the last four or five years since the US putting out this strategy of strangling Chinese chip development. It will take rather much shorter time frame for China to reach the stage that it will make chip cheap and that will be the real problem for the American.

Imagine When China build its own chip industry, the price of your Iphone and your PC' could be brought to half of their current price,almost everyone in developing country can afford them and how it will benefit thier economy,this could be the end of the Western countries' dominance and rise of all developing countries.

The US is the most violent and dangerous country in the world. Think about how many millions of people it has killed, directly and indirectly, just in the 21st century. And yet it has the gall to complain about how dangerous other states are. That is how delusional the US is. It can't even see itself as it is.

If AI can learn to play chess and defeat you. It can learn to play the war too and defeat the opponent. Next gen of war will use advanced tactical formation like the one never seen before all determined by a computer. It will determine the most vulnerable area not the nerve centre as it knows they are well shielded.

The US Neocons as always love to create boogeyman narratives of other nations trying to get at them even when those Nations are simply minding their own business.
