President Trump Friday announced the enactment of 25% tariffs on $50 billion worth of Chinese goods imported into the United States. Trump said the goods contain industrially significant technologies as defined by section 301 of the Trade Act of 1974.
The list of items products subject to the tariffs announced this morning numbers 1,102. U.S. Customs and Border Protection agents will begin collecting tariffs July 6 on the first $34 billion worth of 818 imported products. Tariffs on the remaining 284 items are still being reviewed and the Office of the U.S. Trade Representative (USTR) will issue a final determination on additional duties on these products once the review is completed.
U.S. Trade Representative Ambassador Robert Lighthizer said:
We must take strong defensive actions to protect America’s leadership in technology and innovation against the unprecedented threat posed by China’s theft of our intellectual property, the forced transfer of American technology, and its cyber attacks on our computer networks. China’s government is aggressively working to undermine America’s high-tech industries and our economic leadership through unfair trade practices and industrial policies like ‘Made in China 2025.’ Technology and innovation are America’s greatest economic assets and President Trump rightfully recognizes that if we want our country to have a prosperous future, we must take a stand now to uphold fair trade and protect American competitiveness.

Advisors' Opinion:- [By Motley Fool Staff]
Vena: Right. iQiyi, when they started developing this original content, keep in mind that they were still owned by Baidu (NASDAQ:BIDU), which spun them off earlier this year. Now, Baidu has a lot of similarities to Google. They are the major search engine in China. They have a lot of data. They've been at the forefront of artificial intelligence. So, one of the things that iQiyi said in their IPO filing with the SEC is that they view that data and their ability to analyze that data using artificial intelligence as one of their competitive advantages. So, they have used that to generate shows that Chinese consumers just really love.
