<h4>Dramatic U.S.-China Tariff Deal: A Comprehensive Analysis of Its Impact on Markets and the Global Economy</h4>


**Key Highlights Covered in This Article:**<br>
Specific details of the newly announced U.S.-China tariff agreement, surprisingly decisive figures that exceeded market expectations, background analysis on why this agreement was reached so quickly and on such a large scale, fundamental differences between the economic structures of the U.S. and China and their implications, changes in exchange rates and consumption patterns, real market reactions, and detailed coverage of stocks to watch.<br><br>


<h3>1. Timeline of the U.S.-China Tariff Agreement</h3>
- The U.S. had decided to impose ultra-high tariffs of up to 145% on Chinese goods.<br>
- China responded in kind, imposing 125% tariffs on U.S. goods.<br>
- The market widely expected that 'an agreement at or below 50% would be better than expected.'<br>
- Former U.S. President Trump lowered expectations by mentioning the 80% level, but the result just announced is far more positive.<br>
- A groundbreaking agreement to lower U.S. rates from 145% → 30% and Chinese rates from 125% → 10% was reached (albeit temporary for 90 days).<br>
- Market reaction: A surprise far exceeding expectations.<br>


<h3>2. Why Was Such a Large-Scale Agreement Possible?</h3>
- Although China seemed to withstand the tariff increases, the actual economic impact was significant.<br>
- Deterioration of China's internal economic fundamentals, such as oversupply (huge inventories and production capacity within China) and a sharp rise in youth unemployment.<br>
- The internal economic situation is so serious that even official unemployment statistics are not being released.<br>
- From an exchange rate perspective, the recent instability of the yuan exchange rate and strong pressure from the U.S. played a decisive role.<br>
- A strong yuan increases the risk factors for China's financial market in the long term.<br>
- The economic structural problem of the U.S. having excessive consumption and China having overproduction has been accumulating, making it impossible to ignore any longer.<br>


<h3>3. Differences in Economic Structure and Policy Choices for Both Countries</h3>
- The U.S. consumes far more than it produces (savings rate of 3~5%).<br>
- China produces much more than it consumes and has an extremely high savings rate (40%).<br>
- Structural trade imbalance: The U.S. spends money, and the world (especially China) manufactures and exports goods.<br>
- Growing consensus that it will be difficult to maintain this structure in the future.<br>
- An extreme tariff war (145%/125%) is a 'lose-lose' scenario for both the U.S. and China.<br>
- The actual agreement focuses on the possibility of a 'win-win' by easing the trade imbalance structure.<br>


<h3>4. Changes in Exchange Rates and the Global Consumption-Production Structure</h3>
- Increased consumption is based on income growth or credit (cards, loans, etc.).<br>
- China's ultra-high savings rate reflects chronic insecurity and income inequality.<br>
- To boost domestic consumption in China, aggressive economic stimulus, credit expansion, and strengthening of social safety nets are necessary.<br>
- If the yuan exchange rate moves to a certain level of strength, China's government can expand its stimulus policy capacity (refer to the Plaza Accord in Japan in the 1990s).<br>
- Exchange rate stability and gradual appreciation can avoid instability in the Chinese financial market and attract foreign investment.<br>


<h3>5. Market Impact and Stocks to Watch</h3>
- Existing leading stocks (shipbuilding, defense, etc.) may see short-term corrections due to the resolution of uncertainty.<br>
- Companies with good performance are likely to rebound sufficiently.<br>
- Emerging strong stocks that are recently showing strength: securities, low PBR (undervalued stocks), high-dividend stocks, etc., are highlighted.<br>
- Among U.S. companies, global companies with a high proportion of sales in China (such as Apple) will benefit the most from tariff normalization.<br>
- Domestic and foreign investors should prioritize a reallocation strategy by industry and stock along with structural changes.<br>


<h3>6. Long-Term Implications and Investment Strategies</h3>
- Normalizing the U.S.-China trade structure is a signal of a global economic system reset.<br>
- Efforts to restore the balance between production and consumption are expected to begin in earnest.<br>
- Exchange rate stability, improved credit conditions, and domestic consumption stimulus are expected to structurally positively affect the performance and stock prices of companies in Korea, China, and Japan.<br>
- Although the market is highly volatile in the short term, it is an opportunity for a leap forward in the medium to long term.<br>


<h3>&lt; Summary &gt;</h3>
The news of an agreement that drastically lowers U.S.-China tariffs from ultra-high rates is a strong tailwind for the global economy. It reveals that China can no longer withstand tariffs. The fundamental causes, such as exchange rates, oversupply, and internal consumption structure, are complex. While the overall market is positive, the changes vary by stock. In the medium to long term, it can be interpreted as a signal that the global economic structure is starting to change.

Rapid Development of US-China Trade Negotiations, Tariff Reductions, and Establishment of Follow-up Negotiations – Comprehensive Summary of Key Points of Global Economic Shifts

This article covers the key aspects of the rapid trade negotiations between the US and China in Geneva, the decision to reduce tariffs, the establishment of subsequent negotiation tables, and the impact of global supply chain restructuring.
Specifically, it organizes the concrete figures of tariff reductions, the composition of the working-level task force, and discussions on diplomatic, security, and trade structure transformations in a contextual manner.
It also includes the short-term financial market impact on the USD/KRW exchange rate, dollar strength, and US Treasury yields, systematically capturing the major points on the ground.
Reading this article will allow you to immediately understand why the global economic outlook has suddenly changed and the future movements of the financial markets.

1. Progress of US-China Trade Negotiations and Announcement of Tariff Reductions

The US and China held trade negotiations in Geneva, Switzerland, for two days (June 10-11).
The US decided to reduce tariffs on China from 145% to 30%, and China decided to reduce tariffs on the US from 125% to 10%, each by 115%p.
The most important aspect of this agreement is the 'symmetrical adjustment' by lowering tariff rates equally, mutually.
The credibility is high, especially with the official announcement from the Chinese Ministry of Commerce.

2. Establishment of a Follow-up Negotiation Mechanism and Activation of a Working-Level Task Force

Announcement of the regularizing of the US-China high-level negotiation table in the future.
Chinese Vice Premier He Lifeng, US Treasury Secretary Bacent, and USTR Representative Grier will lead the negotiations.
A system is established for constant consultation through phone calls and online means.
In addition to the ministerial level, a working-level task force covering trade and the overall economy will be newly established, enabling coordination on practical policy details.
The flexibility in choosing the negotiation venue—whether in the US, China, or a third country—is also greatly emphasized.

3. Discussions on Global Supply Chain and Trade Structure Restructuring

Attempt to fundamentally reset the US-China trade deficit structure.
The US had a previous trade balance with high import volume from China (yellow) and low export volume to China (blue).
Progress in discussions on increasing US exports to China or reducing imports (direct and indirect) from China through this negotiation.
The use of more sophisticated trade statistics, including the volume of automobile imports via Canada and Mexico, can be seen as a preview of the actual supply chain transition.

4. Short-Term Financial Market Reaction and Background of Dollar Strength

Following the negotiation announcement, there was a rise in the USD/KRW exchange rate, dollar strength, and a fall in US Treasury yields.
Some media interpret this as 'dollar preference' due to uncertainty and vigilance, but the actual background is the enhanced positive perception of US dollar assets.
Recovery of confidence in dollar-denominated assets > Inflow of US Treasury purchases, leading to a rise in Treasury prices (fall in yields), and a simultaneous rise in the dollar index.
The reaffirmation of the new 'safe asset' positioning in the global capital market.

5. Future Announcements and Connection with the IMF’s Warning Against Tariff Wars

The final US-China joint declaration content will be announced based on US time, and analysis will continue immediately considering the time difference.
Both the Trump administration and China appear to have largely accepted the IMF's warning to 'refrain from tariff wars'.
The environment has arrived where it is difficult for major global economies to place significant emphasis on driving tariff competition any further.
Referring to the IMF economic outlook before this incident, it is possible to grasp the entire context of why the US-China trade structure had to be shaken this year.

< Summary >
The US and China announced equal tariff reductions and the establishment of a permanent negotiation system after high-level trade negotiations in Switzerland.
With the establishment of a working-level task force, preparations for trade structure transformation and supply chain restructuring have begun in earnest.
The financial market has strengthened confidence in US dollars and Treasuries, affecting exchange rates and interest rate movements.
Reflecting the IMF warning, both countries are beginning to approach structural agreements rather than tariff wars in earnest.
