My colleague @cvest88 updated our 301 analysis now that we have the HS codes. Some notable carveouts (see critical materials, in particular), which could well inspire China's retaliatory target list...https://t.co/jNWc9lqg53
Last week we published our best guess of what imports from China would be covered by the new 301 tariffs while we waited for the codes from USTR. USTR issued those codes yesterday, and we’ve updated our research note. A few things jump out.
In our latest @rhodium_group report on US-led tech controls, @JPKleinhans, Laura Gormley & I delve into the China legacy chip debate: what does the data show, what are the policy pathways, and how will US partners respond. Welcome your feedback!

Ahead of Xi-Biden #APEC mtg, US goes all in with another hard-hitting package of chip controls targeting China. @JPKleinhans of @snv_berlin and I break down the most remarkable provisions and strategic implications in our latest @rhodium_group note https://t.co/QuX1ilXIKt 1/ 🧵
