US companies cut investments in China to record lows. Here's why

July 30, 2025--Tariffs and trade tensions have caused US companies to curb investments in China, a survey by the US-China Business Council found.
"On-again, off-again talks have shaken business confidence," the report states.
US-China trade was a major topic of discussion at the World Economic Forum's Annual Meeting of the New Champions in Tianjin, China, last month.

American companies have cut investments in China to record lows as tariffs and trade tensions continue to reshape the economic relationship between the world's two largest economies, according to a recent survey.

The Member Survey 2025 from the US-China Business Council (USCBC) found that only 48% of US companies plan to invest in China this year, a sharp decrease from the 80% who had planned investments in 2024. Moreover, the survey found a steady decline in optimism regarding China's economic growth forecasts and low confidence in the prospect of improved US-China relations.
