China hits back with export controls, Canada and Mexico remain under threat. USPS closes then reopens "di minimis" small package loophole

Prices will rise for Americans who buy $5 shirts, $10 lamps and $20 shoes on direct-from-China shopping sites like Shein and Temu after U.S. President Donald Trump this week imposed 10% tariffs on goods from China.

China has formally launched a dispute at the World Trade Organization (WTO) over tariffs imposed by U.S. President Donald Trump on Chinese goods, the Geneva-based body said on Wednesday.

U.S. automaker Tesla's sales of China-made electric vehicles fell 11.5% to 63,238 units in January from a year earlier, data from the China Passenger Car Association showed on Friday. Deliveries of China-made Model 3 and Model Y vehicles were down 32.

Competition between Tesla and Chinese domestic rivals is intensifying as the U.S. firm continues to launch incentives to keep its cars attractive.

The EV maker sold 63,238 of its cars in January, compared to 71,447 vehicles it sold in the same month in 2024.

The ban was implemented on Feb. 4 after President Donald Trump directed the United States to implement an additional 10% tariff on Chinese goods and ended a customs exception that allowed small value parcels to enter the U.
