President Donald Trump formally extended the deadline to keep the social media app TikTok available in the United States until Dec 16, giving time to complete the framework of the deal announced Monday after talks between American and Chinese government officials. The executive order signed on Tuesday by Trump was the fourth time he has bypassed federal law to prolong the deadline for the China-associated TikTok to sell its assets to an American company or face a ban. The original deadline was Jan 19 of this year, a day before Trump took the oath of office for his second term. Trump was asked Tuesday about the framework deal he announced a day earlier and repeated that he would discuss TikTok with Chinese President Xi Jinping on Friday. He has said there are companies that want to buy the social media app owned by ByteDance and that details about its potential suitors would be announced soon. I hate to see value like that thrown out the window, Trump said as he departed the White ..

Trump's tariffs seen cutting into China sales of US companies, survey finds

Many US companies operating in China expect their sales to take a hit this year from US President Donald Trump's tariffs and the ones that China has imposed in response, according to an annual survey released Wednesday by the American Chamber of Commerce in Shanghai. Nearly two-thirds of the 254 companies who responded said the new tariffs have reduced expected revenues for their China operations in 2025. About one-third, many in banking and other industries that don't import from or export to the US, don't expect any impact. Trump has imposed an additional 30 per cent tax on imports from China, after raising them at one point to 145 per cent before the two countries agreed in May to scale back a tit-for-tat tariff war. China has responded with a 10 per cent tax on US imports. The tariffs hit companies that export to the US and those that import American parts or ingredients for their production in China, such as chemical companies, Shanghai chamber leaders said. Tariffs have had a
