Trump first mentioned the Switzerland talk between China and US: we lost nothing.

Trump talked about the upcoming talks between China and the US in Switzerland for the first time today (on May 8th Beijing Time).

Reporter: "What results do you hope to achieve from the talks in Switzerland with China?"

Trump: "We will wait and see. We used to lose one trillion dollars every year, but now we don't lose anything at all. That's how I see it."

[Clever Comment]: Trump's logic seems quite unique all along: in his eyes, if he spends a thousand dollars buying something, it means he lost a thousand dollars, even if the money is still his own printed currency. In recent days, there has been great anticipation for the first meeting between the US and China in Switzerland. However, the possibility of reaching an agreement or consensus during this meeting is extremely slim. It might only be able to ease tensions between the two countries to some extent and establish communication channels. When the US stock, bond, and foreign exchange markets are affected, and shelves in American supermarkets gradually empty out, Trump will truly feel the pressure. Nevertheless, despite facing many challenges, we must still hold on for now.
