Former U.S. Secretary of Commerce Carlos Gutiérrez has thrown a spotlight on the urgent need for calm in the high-stakes arena of U.S.-China trade. Speaking at the Boao Forum for Asia Annual Conference 2025, Gutiérrez likened the current tariff tug-of-war to 'riding a rollercoaster blindfolded', emphasizing uncertainty over global responses to U.S. policy moves.
'I hope we hit the reset button,' he told CGTN, advocating for a return to predictable trade norms. But it's not all doom and gloom — the ex-commerce boss teased 'next-level opportunities' if both powers ditch the drama. 🚀
With China-U.S. trade talks feeling more suspenseful than a Netflix cliffhanger, Gutiérrez’s call for stability resonates with young professionals and entrepreneurs craving economic clear skies. Could this be the prelude to a collab era for the world’s two biggest economies? Stay tuned.
