morganstanley.com Over the years, I have participated in several congressional hearings on US-China economic relationships. Just six weeks ago, I testified on this same issue in executive session in front of the Subcommittee on Trade of the US House Ways and Means Committee (see my 13 February statement, “The Politicization of the US-China Trade Relationship”). This latest hearing in front of the all-powerful Senate Finance Committee was different. I left the Dirksen Senate Office Building convinced that trade sanctions against China are now inevitable. Support is deep and bipartisan. And the experts tell me that the margin of support appears broad enough to be veto-proof in the event that President Bush objects. After years of talk and bluster, protectionism no longer seems like an empty threat. This time, it looks like the real thing. I suspect a protectionist trade or currency bill could become law by year-end 2007. Just a wild hunch, I am going to guess Jay might recommend some metals in response to this .... :)
