These changes were planned a long time before trump came on the scene and were part of Xi's 2025 plan.

Where you will know if they are Trump induced is if they are exclusively for America and America only.

haha dude you are so lame and desperate. Neither one of those links says anything about them stopping from stealing our tech. This is because of Trump. This is proof that TDS reaches FAR outside of the USA.

So China is starting to stop fucking over the US in trade, is caving on tariffs and their IP theft, currency manipulation and unfair trade practices... and the Left will be upset as usual.

Too bad most Asian nations think in terms of decades, not 4 year cycles.

So exactly what Xi said he was going to do from 2015??

And I'll repeat, you'll know if Trump had any effect by the amount of exclusive USA/ China deals that come out, if its just China opening more to the world as a whole... then that was Xi's plan from the day he took power.

Tariffs you American consumers are paying as a hidden tax, have been more than offset by currency changes.

When we have questions about isolated British penal colonies, please feel free to jump in. Otherwise, you're irrelevant... as is your persistent need to bash the US.

You gave us Men at Work, INXS and Paul Hogan and still haven't apologized for Mel Gibson and besides that, you've been on a pretty long dry spell in terms of anyone having any reason at all to think of Australia or care about Australia.... maybe you should worry more about that.

Since Hogan times... 80% increase in trade with China, GDP higher than Russia, Higher standard of living and longevity than USA.

America's only real advantage over Australia is you've breed a lot more.. and that's you're failing with China, because simply they are much bigger and clocks ticketing as to when they're richer.

… Meanwhile Chinas been increasing its take over of the South Pacific economically conquering one country at a time, on their path to Hawaii... And what's trump done about it??? encouraged it.

Americans seem to be oblivious to harm Trump has unleashed on your future, the damage he's done internationally, and no more so than to the Chinese consumer. And sad to report big fucking numbers, but any countries future in the next 150 years will solely depend.. on how much your trading with China and most importantly how much the Chinese consumer is purchasing your product.

US households see biggest decline in net worth since the financial crisis

Americans' net worth fell at the highest level since the financial crisis in the fourth quarter of 2018 as sliding stock market prices ate into the household balance sheet.

Net worth dropped to $104.3 trillion as the year came to an end, a decrease of $3.73 trillion from the third quarter, according to figures released Thursday by the Federal Reserve. The fall amounted to a drop of 3.4 percent.

Much of the slide came due to Wall Street's woes, as the stock market suffered a precipitous decline that started in October and briefly reached bear market status. Equities skidded as investors began to fear that the Fed would keep raising interest rates even as economic conditions began to deteriorate.

By the time the market drop ended in late December, households saw $4.6 trillion worth of equity value deteriorate. The decline was offset somewhat by a $300 billion increase in real estate value. The overall move was the second-highest quarterly dollar drop since the Fed began tracking the statistic.

Overall, financial assets totaled just more than $85 trillion at the end of the year, while real estate value was $29.2 trillion.

Household net worth has been rising strongly since the crisis and is up 73 percent since 2009.

After suffering their worst Christmas Eve in history, stocks staged a turnaround and ultimately saw their best two-month start to a year since at least 1991. The Dow Jones Industrial Average is off about 1.6 percent in March though still up more than 9 percent year to date.

The fall in net worth came during a quarter when GDP rose 2.6 percent, according to a first estimate. That was part of a year that saw growth near 3 percent despite a lackluster period for financial markets. Economists largely expect 2019 to start with little growth in the economy, as the Atlanta Fed sees GDP up just 0.5 percent.
