 EVENT TODAY @ 12:00 PM |  China in the Crosshairs - 02.13.2020 ChinAAAAA cartoon

With China continuing to grapple with Covid-19, the war in Ukraine raging on and the global economy slowing (did we mention Taiwan saber-rattling?) - the U.S.-China dynamic looms large.

We will be talking once again with one of the top China scholars in the world—Derek Scissors from the American Enterprise Institute. He will offer unique insight on the direction of U.S.-China relations in the near term: We'll cover China macro performance, the status of tariffs, the China competition bill slogging through Congress, chaos throughout the supply chain ecosystem, as well as onshoring and more.

Please join us today, JUNE 16 at 12:00 pm.
