Financial Times talked about how Malaysia wants to crack down on this... here is my favorite quote: "Nvidia’s Singapore office accounts for nearly a quarter of its global sales, raising suspicions in Washington that some of the chips are leaking into China." ft.com/content/d0267f…

Reciprocal tariffs, LOL. US Census data, divide trade balance by US imports, you get the Family Feud charts from today's presser. And last week some of you believed there was some magic chaos plan because CEA chair wrote a brief. They will come up with any numbers they need to

*Trade war: my theory of the case* 1. What is the goal/ideal outcome/trump admin hopes: 10% tariff across the board with no retaliation + direct non-tariff favors from other countries to settle this at 10% + a possible full-scale bilateral trade war with China. (1/n)

What are the long-run consequences of trade wars on real wages and consumption? In a new note, David Baqaee and I show that capital adjustment matters a lot. Trade barriers raise the cost of investment goods, capital stocks shrink, and so do consumption and wages.

How Tariffs Affect Trade Deficits... ... a new paper with amazing trade economist Arnaud Costinot. Many politicians and the general public expect tariffs to reduce imports lower imports and thus work to close a trade deficit. Economists typically say "not so fast"... 🧵1/n
