BREAKING: President Trump says that the U.S. will impose a 10% tariff on $300 billion worth of Chinese goods beginning Sept. 1. The announcement comes after U.S.-China trade talks ended this week without an agreement.

Trump says this about China, which is the US's largest trading partner by a significant margin: "If they don't want to trade with us anymore, that would be fine with me. It would save a lot of money." pic.twitter.com/7uCSQOhJCC

This is all on Trump. Investors hate his trade war, voters don't like it, clearly bad for the economy (10-year down to 1.89%, which tells the tale) But he remains convinced that he can bully China https://t.co/6X3xSZF9N5

During previous rounds of talks, Trump claimed victory by saying China had promised to buy American farm products and stop the flow of fentanyl. Now he has discovered China did neither.

One important point about Trump's trade war: to a large extent it hasn't even reduced imports, just shifted them away from China to higher-cost sources. This trade diversion is a pure cost to the U.S. economy pic.twitter.com/62GzM5fItz
