Will US Democrats be more compromising towards US China trade disputes?

There was no surprise global markets were jittering and see sawing last week because of the US mid term result and US Fed rate meeting.


Markets were obviously uplifted when US Democrats retook the House of Representative but they reacted negatively to US Fed maintaining its rate hike schedule intact.

This week, the markets will refocus themselves to the unresolved business- US China trade dispute.  And as Democrats were back from political wilderness,  people start to ask what it would mean to the US  China trade disputes.

Could we expect a less belligerent Trump administration, or they share the same goal but Democrats with a less aggressive approach.   

We have invited independent economic analyst and strategist, Dr Po man Chan to analyze the situation for us.
