American songs of delusion

The trade war between China and the US is one sided. The Americans are calling all the shots and winning. The Americans are telling the world and themselves that China’s economy is suffering but the American economy is doing just as well, very well in fact, not affected by the trade war at all. If you believe in the American rhetoric, Chinese economy is going to crumble and China would go down on its knees to beg for mercy.
 
Is this the truth? Look at the numbers. Yes the Americans are putting more tariffs on Chinese exports to the US. So China must be selling less to the Americans and worse, China is paying for the tariff hike imposed by Trump. However, the statistics said otherwise. China US trade balance in favour of China has increased in the last 6 months, ie China is selling a lot more to the US or at least in value terms. Should this be negative or positive to the Chinese economy?
 
Next, American companies are not allowed to sell the Huawei, their biggest customers and losing billions in revenue. Is this positive or negative to China’s economy or to the American economy? Not selling to Huawei means no revenue for the Americans.
 
And China has stopped buying the soya beans, meat, poultry, sea food, wines and many other things from their American suppliers. So, is this good or bad for the American economy? Produces not selling, rotting away in the warehouses.
 
Just on these 3 points alone, whose economy is suffering more? Whose economy is more affected by the trade war? Yes, the Chinese economy has shrunk by 0.3%, from 6.5% to 6.2%. The American economy not affected at all, but getting better!
 
Really? What happened to the farmers, the food producers, the electronic component manufacturers? What happened to the billions of revenue that are not coming in? Why are the farmers and electronic/computer companies petitioning the US govt to lift the ban, lift the tariff, if the American economy is doing so well?
Don’t trust the Chinese trade figures, trust the American trade figures and rhetoric. The Americans are winning the trade war!
 
What you should trust is what is real. What is real is that if the American economy is so good, why are they going to cut interest rate towards zero? Does this ring a bell that something bad is happening to the American economy? When the American economy is doing so well, should not they be raising interest rate? What kind of economy would live precariously on the edge of zero interest rate? Healthy or sick economy in the intensive care unit?
