China Moves on U.S. Car Tariff Cut Trump Tweeted About

China is moving toward cutting its trade-war tariffs on imported U.S.-made cars, a step already claimed by President Donald Trump as a concession won during trade talks in Argentina.

A proposal to reduce tariffs on cars made in the U.S. to 15 percent from the current 40 percent -- bringing the U.S. back in line with what other countries pay -- has been submitted to China’s Cabinet to be reviewed in the coming days, according to people familiar with the matter.

While reversing the retaliatory duty is a major climb-down by Beijing, it could re-focus the two sides toward implementing the trade-war truce agreed earlier this month.

In a hint of the pressures that some investors hope could focus Westminster minds, the pound slid to the lowest since April 2017 on Monday after Prime Minister Theresa May  delayed a crunch vote  on her deal to exit the European Union, pushing the U.K. even closer to a cliff edge. “Stress in financial markets and pressure from businesses should lead to a last-minute approval of the deal in Parliament,” said Silvia Dall’Angelo, senior economist at Hermes Investment Management.
