I'm not an Economist, but I play one on TV...
Joking aside, I AM an EMBA grad and I got to thinking about what would happen on a macro level to this industry from all angles (consumer, manufacturers, retailers, R&D, etc) if a protracted trade war were indeed to develop. Part of my interest comes from the fact that it's already a very, very niche industry and wouldn't have the levers to manage a trade war as smoothly as the general economy.
I should add: not looking for a "political" discussion/flame war. Just asking a "what if"...
