It is not unreasonable where BYD will set up shop in the US with or without union labor........All they have to do is start a business in the US , issue stock on the NYSE, do a public offering and issue stock to its existing shareholders in exchange for funding... Number one problem in the US......Tesla is too expensive and their cyber truck????????????? People like the style of existing ICE pickup trucks...not a stretch to have low priced pickups (as once existed in the US) with an battery pack/electric motor Rome was not built in a day The US will welcome inexpensive EVs and Plug in hybrids just so they are made in America .............Clunkers are doomed as for China's economy...............too many empty apartments .....not enough people to fill them .the Answer in China....allow for mass immigration from ha ha ha India and the poor countries of the world China is a very racist country, based on what I have read. China is ruled by Han Chinese and the other groups of conquered nations are looked down upon. Correct me if you can, I would like to think otherwise. Yes they should allow legal immigration either for workers or for full citizenship. That is only logical for any nation that is losing population and is not already overpopulated IMHO. .

(Pedro Pardo/AFP via Getty Images) By Dorothy Li and Mary Man 7/4/2024Updated:7/4/2024 Print X 1 0:00 Brussels announced on July 4 that companies that manufacture electric vehicles (EVs) in China will be subjected to additional tariffs when their products are exported into the European Union market. Tariffs of up to 37.6 percent on China-manufactured EVs will be imposed by all member states starting July 5. The decision is binding and will initially apply for four months, after which it may be extended for years. The move results from a months-long investigation by the EU’s Executive Commission, which found that China’s EV makers benefit from “unfair ”state subsidies and pose a “threat of economic injury” to its homegrown auto business, the commission said in a statement on July 4. Story continues below advertisement The EU had agreed to hold talks with Beijing over the bloc’s tariff plans, which were first unveiled on June 12. The EU’s trade commissioner, Valdis Dombrovskis, and China’s commerce minister, Wang Wentao, held their first meeting on June 22. “The EU side emphasized that any negotiated outcome to its investigation must be effective in addressing the injurious subsidization,” the European Commission’s trade spokesperson, Olof Gill, said in a statement after that meeting. Brussels reiterated that message on July 4 in its statement, saying that its technical talks with Beijing would continue with “a view to reaching a WTO-compatible solution,” which should “adequately” address its concerns. RELATED STORIES EU ‘Not Worried’ About China’s Anti-Dumping Investigation Into Its Pork 6/17/2024 Biden Sharply Raises Tariffs on Chinese EVs, Steel, Solar Cells 5/14/2024 The provisional duties on Chinese EVs are almost identical to the plans released last month. The commission said it slightly decreased some rates based on “comments on the accuracy of the calculations submitted by interested parties.” According to the decision published in the EU’s Official Journal, the highest tariffs will be imposed on SAIC Group, a Chinese state-owned carmaker, at 37.6 percent. Duties apply to other Chinese carmakers also vary, with Geely facing duties of 19.9 percent and BYD at 17.4 percent. The measures will also affect Western companies that manufacture EVs in China, such as Tesla, which has a gigafactory in Shanghai. The U.S. giant carmaker, along with BMW and other carmakers deemed by the EU as cooperating in its probe, will be subjected to a 21 percent duty, while automakers that did not cooperate will be subject to a higher duty of 38.1 percent, according to the Official Journal. The EU’s ongoing investigation on Chinese-made EVs is expected to continue for almost four additional months. Following this period, the Executive Commission could propose the imposition of definitive duties, which typically remain in effect for five years, if the plan is supported by the majority of the bloc’s 27 member states in November’s vote. ‘Deglobalizing’ The Chinese regime has pledged to take “all necessary measures” to “firmly” defend its rights and interests. On June 17, for example, China’s commerce ministry initiated an anti-dumping investigation into pork imported from the EU. Story continues below advertisement In January, Beijing opened an anti-dumping investigation into European brandy, particularly French cognac. The move was seen as retaliation for Brussels’s scrutiny of Chinese subsidies for EVs and medical devices.

(STR/AFP via Getty Images) Some analysts say Beijing’s retaliatory moves are intended to pressure Brussels into softening its stance. “China is using whatever levers it has to push the EU into moderating its stance. That is all part of the strategic competition,” said Erik Jones, director of the Robert Schuman Centre for Advanced Studies at the European University Institute based in Italy. “The news about Chinese dumping investigations into EU pork exports is just the latest illustration,” he recently told The Epoch Times. Mr. Jones said that Beijing’s retaliation could only intensify tensions with the EU, and Brussels will continue its course of “derisking.” “Every tit-for-tat episode gets added to the overall tension in the relationship,” Mr. Jones continued, adding, “I expect this kind of dynamic to increase and not decrease over the coming months and years.” Brussels’ decision came after U.S. President Joe Biden announced the imposition of 100 percent duties on EVs shipped from China—a fourfold increase from the previous 25 percent duty—ahead of November’s election.

Ultimately it's the driver of an EV who subsidizes .. well, whoever the government wants to redistribute his money to. If a foreign government subsidizes their own industry, with the ultimate goal to squash the industry in your country where they export to, your can do two things. 1. Start subsidizing your own industry (e.g., "Invest in America Act"). 2. Start putting tariffs on the imports from that foreign government. The first option means that every tax payer in the country is subsidizing an industry. It also won't make your own industry internationally very competitive, because third countries will start taxing your exports again. The good thing is that it creates jobs. However, does the USA need more jobs? Maybe locally, but in many places, there are already too few hands to do the work. The second option only affects the buyers of the product that is being dumped. The general tax payer is better off. Be it solar panels or cars, China has seen tariffs on them. What this policy might do is to force the foreign entity to start producing in your country. You get all the benefits of option 1, without spending tax money on subsidies. Tariffs trump subsidies any day: the WTO agrees with this view. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

But under our bear-case scenario, we see EV sales volume declining 2% year-over-year, and negative growth would likely result in oversupply across the EV supply chain."

Ecocharger + 1,474 DL July 11 China loves fossil fuel cars. Fossil fuel cars rule, and will continue to rule. New fossil fuel auto technology still comes forward. https://oilprice.com/Energy/Crude-Oil/The-Future-May-Not-Be-As-Electric-as-We-Think.html "Renault, China’s Geely, and Saudi Aramco are investing in new internal combustion engine technology. Renault and Geely are opting for an alternative way to achieve it, through fuel efficiency and other tech advancements in internal combustion. Affordability is one of the factors that make drivers loyal to the ICE technology." "Xinhua reported earlier this week that the total number of cars on Chinese roads had reached 440 million at the end of June. Of these, the data showed, new energy vehicles had a share of 24.72 million. Of these, 18.13 million were plug-in electric vehicles—what we commonly call EVs, and the rest were hybrids. In percentage terms, then, EVs represent barely a 4.1% of the Chinese market. In other words, even in the world’s biggest EV market, with billions spent on charging infrastructure and making EVs dirt cheap, most drivers still prefer internal combustion vehicles." 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

You really are out of touch...over 99% of the Chinese transportation sector is fossil fuel and will remain fossil fuel. You may borrow my handkerchief to wipe away your tears. "In percentage terms, then, EVs represent barely 4.1% of the Chinese market. In other words, even in the world’s biggest EV market, with billions spent on charging infrastructure and making EVs dirt cheap, most drivers still prefer internal combustion vehicles." This makes nonsense of your wild claim (unsubstantiated and unreferenced, of course, you have no clue as usual) "China EVs/plugins are heading to 60 Percent of the new vehicle market by year end" The actual figure is 4.1% not 60%...you are getting some strange messages from a strange world. Thanks for making my day, a good laugh was had by all. Edited July 12 by Ecocharger Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

So in the article you reference your very worst bearish scenario is that EV sales fall 2% y-o-y and you claim thats "cratering". Your own article is saying the likely scenario is a y-o-y growth of 21%!!! Can't you read??? You are referencing material that actually counters your argument!

I understand that you struggle with reading and the basic understanding of comprehending sentences. Its why you don't understand the whole discussion.
