HONG KONG -- The U.S. is set to take in more goods from Asia this year as tax cuts and deficit spending stimulate domestic demand even as President Donald Trump aggressively raises barriers to Chinese exports as well as to steel and aluminum inflows.
Changyong Rhee, Asia and Pacific director for the International Monetary Fund, said that Asian economies will get a 0.1% to 0.5% gross domestic product lift from the U.S. trends.
