Jack Ma Yun, the founder of Chinese e-commerce leader Alibaba Group Holding, predicted on Tuesday that the escalating trade conflict between the world's two largest economies could far outlast U.S. President Donald Trump's administration.
"It's going to be long," Ma said at Alibaba's annual investor day in the Chinese city of Hangzhou, referring to the U.S.-China trade war. "It's going to be a mess -- maybe 20 years."
