China Warns Allies Against U.S. Tariff‑Side Deals

China’s commerce ministry threatened “reciprocal countermeasures” if other nations strike trade agreements with Washington that Beijing deems harmful. The warning comes as governments weigh concessions to avoid President Trump’s sweeping tariffs.

Ongoing tariff chess could raise prices on imported electronics, apparel, and cars—budget watchers should track headlines.
Investors in export‑heavy sectors may see volatility until trade paths clarify.
If negotiations stall, expect fresh debates over supply‑chain “de‑risking” and friend‑shoring jobs closer to home. Poll Question (optional): How have trade‑war price increases
