Trade & Tariffs

U.S. Jobs Exposed to Chinese Tariffs

China has retaliated by announcing trade tariffs on American-made products, including agricultural produce like wine, fruit, meat, but also motor vehicles and aircraft parts. The below chart shows the top 10 U.S. industries by NAICS code, ranked by number of total employees, that could be adversely affected, according to the Brookings Institute.
