But will germans buy a jew. Welcome to you this is asia im going to get jones in berlin good to have you with us. In a new twist to the u. S. China trade disputes china has called the u. S. An economic terrorist and signals it could stop exporting rare earth metals to the u. S. And that matters because rare earths are used in a wide range of Consumer Products from i phones to electric car motors as well as military jet engines satellites and lasers now rare earth are a group of 17 elements here are a few of them therion for one is used in Catalytic Converters and cars bastien site is used in nuclear industry. Is used to make magnets and lanthanum is used in camera lenses and so forth now china supplies nearly 3 quarters of all the worlds rare earth 120000 tonnes that is the big produces include australia with 20000 tonnes and the us used to be a major producers but now turns out just 15000 tonnes so are rare earth supplies going to be the Bargaining Chip in the us China Trade War our correspondent andrea hang joins us now in singapore and in cyprus we welcome jameel global head of Currency Strategy and Market Research at f. X. T m good to have you both on the show andrea i would like to start with you because this threat of stopping a supplies of rare earth that isnt the only thing the United States needs to worry about right now. No it isnt a plug in china supply is the least of his problems because the americans us severely legging behind now the u. S. Relies on china for 80 percent of its red requirements and with that supply being disrupted theres also another problem off processing china has processing dominance in the world and the americans and severely lagging behind in their own Processing Plants very few very few are only being in the Construction Phase right now one is going to open in california this year but the other 2 wont be ready to 2022 all right so is a double whammy really jimmy and weve already seen that asian markets certainly were trading low today whats the impact going to be on Financial Markets and which acid classes are impacted the most you say. Wow this is a very big deal for Financial Markets sensible and its a big deal for a major number of different us a classes across commodities like oil and merchant markets stocks such as the Shanghai Composite Index that includes the emerging Market Currencies that construction globally from the South African round africa to the chinese sean bell asian brit even as far as the mexican peso and lots of america based on investors become risk off and lets not even begin about the impacts of corporations like apple major Stock Market Side the german dax and the u. S. Stock markets essentially investors are going into defensive and they are back in the trenches because these Battle Shorts are still beyond 5 theres another escalation what everybody actually hopes that this movie between the u. S. And china and trade sanctions would wrap up by this month but not at all its going for a sequel on this why investors are defensive so that was means there are wider implications there not just for the United States but for the u. K. As well and for europe. Absolutely these implications are far and wide and that globally we can expect Global Economic downgrades any day now based on the weakening Market Sentiment and the we can sense and around Global Economic health and lets also not forget that investors were preparing for a Global Economic downturn in 2009 seen based on external headwinds but its because these had once again louder because the escalations also drifted wide these downgrades the good coming thick and fast in part sure it impacts United Kingdom Intoxication Economy Impacts of u. S. Consumer and impacts china will fight even mention of emerging markets this is bad for the Global Economy all right andrea. This looks like a real ace up chinas sleeve is this the ultimate weapon china has in this trade route to strengthen its position. Well monica i think china has to tread very carefully with this new threat and you know it has to consider other ways of hurting u. S. Imports that doesnt have that doesnt disrupt the global system and supply in 2010 if we recall beijing actually told out is similar threat to japan over the East China Sea dispute and as a result of that they disrupted supplies of over 5000. 00 pounds to manufacture such as of rare earths to many factors such as toyota and pena sorry but that did not pan out well and beijing did not emerge a winner out of that dispute the u. S. Led coalition with multi with multilateral countries as well head to consult with the w. T. Or in order to put a stop to chinas threats and disrupting of the supplies off to these countries and theres a rule that they cannot do that and impose such bans on countries for the to disrupt the markets all right so it looks like another chapter there not the end to the Trade Route Singapore and jimmy are made in cyprus thank you to both of you.
