Treasury's Mnuchin sees positive U.S. growth as China talks loom

WASHINGTON - U.S. Treasury Secretary Steven Mnuchin on Monday said he did not see the threat of a recession as the Trump administration seeks to revive trade negotiations with China, adding that he expected a positive year ahead for the U.S. economy.

“We have a document, we’ve made a lot of progress, they’re coming here, I take that as a sign of good faith that they want to continue to negotiate,” Mnuchin said. The United States for more than two years has been seeking sweeping changes to China’s policies and practices on intellectual property protection, the forced transfer of U.S. technology to Chinese firms, American companies’ access to China’s markets and industrial subsidies.

China might use an important weapon to fight trumps bullying trade war: dump all or part of the USA debts? China is USA biggest debtor and take back that much US dollars will make the Wall Street crash thus make USA recession come faster teaching trump a lesson and fail in 2020!

The US looks like it's doing fine only because Trump is increasing debt and pointing a gun to the Fed to lower rates. That's called overheating the economy. Good luck

Anyone believe this Cheshire Cat?

Could he under Trump see the negative?

A blind man with visions

His thoughts mean nothing.

It’s so odd to hinge growth on mere talks...

They lie and you repeat = propaganda

Munchkin!

Trump is a professional conman and a pathological liar. Only fools cut deals with Donald Trump. China should stay away from Trump's America.

Change the present rigged economy model of this world! This planet is an endangered species already!
