Economics @lemmy.ml humanspiral @lemmy.ca Productive EU solution to Chinese EVs: minimum prices instead of tariffs.
finance.yahoo.com EU, China will look into setting minimum prices on electric vehicles, EU saysThe European Union and China have agreed to look into setting minimum prices of Chinese-made electric vehicles instead of tariffs imposed by the EU last year, a European Commission spokesperson said on Thursday. EU trade commissioner Maros Sefcovic spoke with Chinese Commerce Minister Wang Wentao i...
Minimum prices protect EU's major auto nations from too much Chinese EV plants in new EU countries. There are still likely to be some, especially if they can sell below minimum price at least in home country.
Higher Chinese profits can be deployed into charging infrastructure, services, and more model imports. More EVs.
While tariffs in EU weren't meant to be prohibitive (no EU models are at full tariff rate), the new policy would be friendlier, likely for purposes of having China make friendly EU business policies.

Economics @lemmy.ml rinze @lemmy.ca Tariff schedule for next week
Tariffs will be lifted for microchips and computers on Monday.
Monday afternoon they’ll be back, but only for computers you can run Quake on.
On Tuesday there'll be new tariffs, but they won’t tell what'll be affected. Surprise!
Wednesday? We’ll have some new tariffs, but they’ll come in blue. Half the tariffs will also be gone. Which half? Who knows?
Thursday’s been cancelled, couldn’t afford it anymore.
There might or might not be some announcement on Friday. It might happen on Truth Social or on X. It might happen on market open or after market close. It’ll be made by a newly-created account. If you find it, you can profit for like 5 minutes. Thrilling!
