•  China on Monday morning announced it would cut import taxes on a range of products starting January 1.

•  The move does not appear to be directly related to trade-war talks with the US.

•  The goods will include frozen pork, pharmaceuticals, paper products, and some tech components, Bloomberg said, citing a statement from the Ministry of Finance.

Say it ain’t so, Trump was right and there is an art to negotiation? China seems to be yielding some. But, I still notice they couldn’t report things without using their inflammatory trade-war language. No, not a war, just Trump working his agenda as promised and re-negotiating bad deals—and apparently succeeding.

Movement to lower  tarrifs, with China, Mexico, Canada, and the UK when Brexit frees them for direct deals with us.

Recordsetting shopping vollume.

Trump polls up a bunch.

Merry Christmas,
