[00:00:00]Here's the deal, Trump's aggressive new tariffs were supposed to crush China, but they might have just handed Beijing another trillion-dollar advantage. Since daily orders from China dropped hard, up 30% in some sectors, American companies panicked and started shifting supply chains faster than ever. A massive chunk of it moved to Vietnam, Mexico, and especially India. Wait, not so fast.
