Hello Friend @ Interesting article.
I have some considerations in relation to that issue... coincidentally the biggest competitor with the American market is the Chinese market. It's economically convenient for the US, which is happening, unfortunately.
I know, as a health professional, that creating viruses is possible... I leave that there...
But, beyond this, worldwide the market is affected, because by the law of business, when a product becomes scarce the price increases, and when the existence increases the price decreases, it is possible that the prices of these products in this country increase, or by a psychological effect of fear rather decrease, diicil know exactly what will happen.
But locally in some countries it will have a positive effect on the local economy, since by decreasing the arrival of products of Chinese origin the consumption of the local could increase, in theory... or, the U.S. empire could gain more ground. Who knows...
Thanks for dropping by and sharing your view on discussed topic @josevas217
